01.I loved once it changed my name

2024 · 3:16

The weight of a name I didn't earn

the air still holds the space you have

I wake with a touch that won't return

I've learned to breathe around the theft

Morning is practice now

the quiet valve I don't know how

to keep a break so I just keep

this is what remains in me

I speak to walls know your voice

I make the daily silent choice

this is the quiet that becomes my task

I loved you once you changed my name

I lost the past that kept the flame

I lost the past but I kept the flame

I kept the flame

Kept the flame.

The world asks nothing so I give

the ghost of how I used to live

each step a question I don't ask

I warm myself against the cold

to carry what I cannot hold

I speak to walls, know your voice

I make the daily silent joys

this is the quiet that becomes my task

I loved you once it changed my name

I lost the past but I kept the flame

I lost the past but I kept the flame.

I hope you're happy I love you

I hope you're free I miss you

this is the shape that absence gave

I kept the flame

I kept the flame

I kept the flame

I loved you once it changed my name

I lost the past but I kept the flame

I kept the flame

Kept the flame.
