letra de esmé's song - alfie james

verse 1
you left the light on in the hall
like you were just going out for air
but the silence after hit like a wall
and now i talk to ghosts who aren’t there

chorus
esmé, you were the moon when i lost my way
held me close on the darkest days
but the night got colder when you let go
you fell through cracks i couldn’t know
and i was right there, but not enough —
now i’m haunted by your kind of love

verse 2
your laugh still echoes in my chest
a sound too bright for how it ends
you wore your sadness like a dress
always hiding tears from friends
we joked about running far from pain
but you left me standing in the rain
holding a name i whisper in vain

verse 3
i wish i’d asked more, stayed awake
told you it’s okay to break
but we were both sinking, weren’t we?
smiling just to make it seem easy
i saw the cracks, i saw the strain
but i mistook quiet for less pain
you looked like you were getting through
but i think that mask was k!lling you —
i should’ve said something. i knew
verse 4
i still scroll through old photos
your smile staged, your eyes don’t lie
and i ask the sky, “why not both of us?”

verse 5
now every sunset feels like blame
and every dream still says your name
people say grief fades with time —
but i still feel you in every line
like the song never really ends

verse 6
if i could trade places, i would
to give you one more chance at good
but you’re part of me, in everything
in empty rooms and the songs i sing
in the quiet, i still wear your ring
outro
esmé, i hope you found some peace
somewhere the weight finally ceased
but down here, i’m still learning to breathe
