Cut Down Too Soon

[Verse]
My heart aches with the weight of your silence
A symphony lost in the void of defiance
The echoes of songs you never could sing
Are haunting the strings of my everything
[Chorus]
You had so many words left unsaid
So many tunes still dancing in your head
Cut down too soon
Your story untold
A voice like the wind
But the air turned cold
[Verse 2]
The pages are blank where your lyrics should be
A melody trapped in eternity's sea
The chords you imagined
They linger in air
But fade like a dream that was never quite there
[Chorus]
You had so many words left unsaid
So many tunes still dancing in your head
Cut down too soon
Your story untold
A voice like the wind
But the air turned cold
[Bridge]
The stars hum your name in a sorrowful key
The moon sheds a tear for the songs that could be
Your spirit still sings in the whispers of night
A songbird in shadow
Lost in the light
[Chorus]
You had so many words left unsaid
So many tunes still dancing in your head
Cut down too soon
Your story untold
A voice like the wind
But the air turned cold
