Choked Up on Your Last Word - Zyric Kane

The syllable is heavy
A stone beneath my tongue
The final bit of us
To which I've ever clung
You said it so cleanly
The sharpest silver blade
Well I'm still standing
In the wreckage that we made
I try to clear my throat
To find a clever line
To tell you that I'm stable
To tell you that I'm fine
But the air is like a thicket
The vows are made of it
And I'm drowning in the sentence
That you already said
I'm just choked up for your last word
The loneliest sound
That I ever heard
It's a nod in the center
I'm catching a breath
A small quiet version of a beautifulness
I'm trying to swallow the hit for the best
But it's burning a hole in the middle of my chest
A permanent stutter a glitching whip
I'm choked up on the goodbye
You gave to me
I've been chewing on the sorry
For a week or maybe two
Trying to find the flavor
Of the person I once knew
But it's bitter as a lemon
And as cold as a stone
A flavor that I have
To get used to
My voice is a ghost
That's forgotten it's name
A flicker of a candle
A figure of a flame
If I could just speak
Then the story would end
But I'm stuck on the corner
Between lover and friend
The elegy is a ride on
The beat is silent ache
Is the something in the corner of my eye
I'm holding a sound like a secret I keep
While the rest of the world
Is surrendering to sleep
Yeah I'm choked up on your last word
The loneliest sound
That I ever heard
It's a nod in the center
I'm catching a breath
A small quiet version of a beautifulness
I'm trying to swallow the hit for the best
But it's burning a hole in the middle of my chest
A permanent stutter a glitching whip
I'm choked up on the goodbye
You gave to me
