Embers of the Golden Candy

[Verse - spoken word]
Crisp wrapper cracks like fire in my veins
Sweet lies burn through the static of the rain
Golden threads weave shadows on the wall
Ashes taste like melted sugarfall
[Chorus]
Flame in the hollow where the candy's gone
Embers glow where the fire used to be
Cold nights whisper secrets I can't own
Melted gold in the silence between
