**Verse 1**
Your goodbye tastes like rain on August skin
A slow-drip poison in this dim-lit diner
Coffee rings map where our fingers last met
The sugar bowl's full but my tea's half-regret
Lipstick smudged on your collar's white creed
A scarlet semicolon to our run-on need
The jukebox croons some '70s lament
We're two torn tickets refusing the event
**Pre-Chorus**
**Let the clock dissolve in bourbon swirls **
My heart's a compass stuck in your lost world
Every mirror's cracking where your shadow breathes
A ghost-train echo through autumn's rusted leaves **
**Chorus**
**This kiss is a bruise-colored lullaby
A pressed rose crumbling where fireflies die
I'm tracing your shadow on moth-eaten sheets
Dancing with echoes in these hollowed-out streets
(Farewell's fragrance farewell's fragrance)
We wrote our end in perfume and rust
Now moonlight sweeps our stardust to dust **
**Verse 2**
Your cologne lingers like unkept vows
A phantom limb where your hands shaped my brows
Photo booth strips fade in my wallet's tomb
Four frozen grins chasing April's doomed bloom
The diner's neon hums our silent psalm
Your ring's cold imprinta phantom limb's calm
We built cathedrals in cigarette smoke
Now ash collects where our futures broke
**Bridge**
**Let winter come steal the porch swing's sigh
I'll haunt the cracks where our laughter still lies
Every raindrop's a psalm we forgot to pray
Our love's now the wound that outlives the blade **
**Chorus**
**This kiss is a bruise-colored lullaby
A pressed rose crumbling where fireflies die
I'm tracing your shadow on moth-eaten sheets
Dancing with echoes in these hollowed-out streets
(Farewell's fragrance farewell's fragrance)
We wrote our end in perfume and rust
Now moonlight sweeps our stardust to dust **
**Outro**
The waitress clears our untouched pie
Your chair creaks empty as midnight sighs
I pocket the napkin where you sketched someday
**Our forever now just salt in the fray **
