Alley Static

[Verse 1]  
You turned the corner fast  
Your shadow split the light  
The alley hissed with snow  
Your collar tucked too tight  

[Chorus]  
I called but got no word  
Just echo that i heard  
Your boots were fading slow  
Into the evening glow  
I called but got no word  
Just echo that i heard  

[Verse 2]  
You left no trace behind  
No note to keep in mind  
The city didn’t care  
Just swallowed you with air  

[Bridge]  
Sometimes we’re made to miss  
The things that felt like this  
You spoke in steps and smoke  
Then left me with the choke  

[Chorus]  
I called but got no word  
Just echo that i heard  
Your boots were fading slow  
Into the evening glow  

[Outro]  
A taxi passed in steam  
I waited through the dream
