Anakin is gone

I still trace your name on the frosted glass...
A ghost I can't outrun.


You wore my trust like a stolen crown,
Smiled while you tore the temple down.
I found the messages, the midnight calls,
A slow-motion fall from grace, these walls.
Your perfume lingers, but the warmth is gone,
Left me singing a broken, silent song.


I tried to drown the echoes in the noise,
But every note was you, every sound your voice.


I gave you heaven, you gave me hell,
A story only the broken tell.
I bled out on the bedroom floor,
Begged for mercy, then begged for more.
But the man who loved you, the man who believed...
That version of me had to leave.


I drove past the places we used to go,
Neon signs bleeding in the rain-soaked road.
Your laughter still lives in the passenger seat,
A phantom limb, a phantom heartbeat.
I screamed your name into the empty night,
But the void just swallowed all the light.


The mirror shows a stranger with tired eyes,
He learned to live with all the silent goodbyes.

I gave you heaven, you gave me hell,
A story only the broken tell.
I bled out on the bedroom floor,
Begged for mercy, then begged for more.
But the man who loved you, the man who believed...
That version of me had to leave.


Then one morning, the weight just... lifted.
The anger turned to dust, the wounds all sifted.
I saw you not as a monster, but as someone lost,
And I realized forgiveness has its own cost.
It's not forgetting, it's setting down the stone.
It's standing here, scarred, but not alone.

I looked at the wreckage of who I used to be,
And I whispered to the wind...

**ANAKIN IS GONE!**

...I'm what remains.

I gave you heaven, you gave me hell,
But I climbed out of that empty well.
The scars are real, but so am I,
I finally taught my heart to fly.
The man who loved you had to die,
To rise again beneath this sky.

I'm what remains...
I'm what remains...
I'm still here.
