[Intro]
In whispers I recall a spark across the night, a crowded hum I used to hear.
Now silence drapes the temples, and the statues hold their breath like priestly gears.
[Verse 1]
I was a wind that braided rivers, a flame that kissed the village walls.
I stood in every doorway, heard prayers rise like paper boats on fall winds fall.
But time wore my names to dust, and graves grew taller than my hands,
The laughter drained from altars, leaving echoes where devotion stands.
[Chorus]
All the hearts drifted like leaves in a river, forgotten light on a distant shore.
If you listen close, you’ll hear my answer calling from the margins of lore.
I am the shade at noon, the memory in the rain, the old crown left on the floor.
Worship faded, but I still remember how you believed once more.
[Verse 2]
I taught the seasons to spin their maps, I carved fate into street-side stones,
I whispered maps to sailors, guiding them home through tempests and unknowns.
But the hands grew wary, gathering steady, leaving me with a shelf of names,
A pantheon of quiet you could only feel, never quite reclaim.
[Chorus]
All the hearts drifted like leaves in a river, forgotten light on a distant shore.
If you listen close, you’ll hear my answer calling from the margins of lore.
I am the shade at noon, the memory in the rain, the old crown left on the floor.
Worship faded, but I still remember how you believed once more.
[Bridge]
Some nights I drift between alleys of stars, counting broken chalices of the past,
I lean into the sighs of bells that toll for those who never quite pass.
[Chorus]
All the hearts drifted like leaves in a river, forgotten light on a distant shore.
If you listen close, you’ll hear my answer calling from the margins of lore.
I am the shade at noon, the memory in the rain, the old crown left on the floor.
Worship faded, but I still remember how you believed once more.
[Outro]
Let the myths grow quiet again, let the ashes tell the old refrain,
I wait in the hush where legends sleep, until you praise me in your rain again.
