Fading Signals
Walber Costa
Low light flickers on your face
Static dreams I can't erase
Every word just drifts away
Before it finds a place to stay
Cold air crawling through the night
You dissolve into the light
I reach out but miss again
Like echoes bending in the end
And I wait
For the sound to come back to me
But you fade, you fade
Through the wires in my head
Every trace, every trace
Leaves me hanging by a thread
I remain, I remain
In the silence you left behind
Calling out through the noise
But you're nowhere I can find
Shadows moving out of time
Fragments of a life once mine
Every second pulls me through
A world that never led to you
And I try
To hold onto something real
But you fade, you fade
Through the wires in my head
Every trace, every trace
Leaves me hanging by a thread
I remain, I remain
In the silence you left behind
Calling out through the noise
But you're nowhere I can find
