(Lyrics)

Midnight's sittin’ heavy on my chest,
Old clock tickin’ louder than the rest.
You left your coat but took your flame,
Now all that’s left is your echo and name.

I’m velvet on the wire, smooth but torn,
Hangin’ by a thread since the day you were gone.
Smilin’ in satin but cryin’ inside,
Tryna keep warm where your fire used to hide.

The phone don’t ring, but I still wait,
Like a fool at the edge of a rusted gate.
Every love song sounds just like you,
Soft on the outside, but cuttin’ me through.

I’m velvet on the wire, frayed and slow,
Swayin’ with secrets only shadows know.
Still wearin’ red like I did that night,
But red don’t hold when you lose the fight.

The mirror shows a woman aged by tears,
Still wearin’ your goodbye like chandelier fears.
I light a smoke with a trembling hand,
But it’s your ghost that takes the stand.

I’m velvet on the wire, singin’ alone,
Draped in a voice that once called you home.
The stage is mine, but your name’s the flame,
And I sing you down in this velvet shame.
