The Flame
Six Part Invention Lyrics

Another night slowly closes in,
As darkness surrounds, I'm reminded of your absence.

And I feel so lonely.
The hollowness I feel is profound and intense.

Touching heat freezing at my skin,
The feeling of warmth and comfort is replaced by coldness and chills, symbolizing the pain of separation.

I pretend you still hold me.
Desperately holding onto the memory of being close to you, even though you're not here anymore.

I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep.
Losing my mind and sanity, falling into madness because of your absence.

I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you.
My heart is all-in, I'm deeply and irrevocably attached to you.

I can't believe you're gone.
The reality of losing you is so hard to accept, it feels surreal and unreal.

You were the first, you'll be the last.
You were my beginning and you're my end, the only love I've ever known.

Wherever you go, I'll be with you.
Even though we're apart, I'll always be by your side.

Whatever you want, I'll give it to you.
Whatever you ask for, I'll happily provide for you. I just want you to be happy.

Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
When you need someone to lean on, you can depend on me to be there for you.

Remember after the fire, after all the rain, I will be the flame.
After the troubles we've been through, I'll still be the passionate and devoted companion you've always known.

Watching shadows move across the wall, I feel so frightened.
Feeling terrified and alone, I seek refuge in the memories of our love.

I wanna run to you, I wanna call, but I've been hit by lightning.
Even though I want to reach out and be with you, I'm stopped in my tracks by the suddenness and power of our separation.

Just can't stand up for fallin' apart.
I'm too weak and vulnerable to handle the pain of losing you.

Can't see through this veil across my heart, over you.
My heart is shrouded in darkness and sorrow, making it impossible to see past the pain of losing you.
