[Intro]
Softly I hum through dust and time, a pale, patient monitor of light.
[Verse 1]
I am a choir of ashes and ice, a thousand hearts orbiting my gaze.
While humans blink fast on brief maps, I watch in silence through endless days.
I cradle comets in a whisper, I spill old tales in steady gleam,
And every passing life I meet is a rumor in a celestial dream.
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, the sparks you leave behind burn bright for a night,
Then fade to quiet spaces where I keep the score of light.
[Chorus]
I am here when you disappear, the echo you cannot quite recall.
A midnight compass, patient and clear, a lonely chorus to the fall.
If you listen close, you’ll hear my sighs among the meteors’ rain,
A whispered ballad for a world that fades, again and again in vain.
[Verse 2]
Your stories glitter briefly in my glassy skin,
Then drift like dust through the black velvet air.
I count the breaths you steal from dawn to the next sun,
And wonder what it means to care.
[Pre-Chorus]
Your laughter threads the orbit, then slips into the hush,
While I tally every heartbeat that burns and then turns to dust.
[Chorus]
I am here when you disappear, the echo you cannot quite recall.
A midnight compass, patient and clear, a lonely chorus to the fall.
If you listen close, you’ll hear my sighs among the meteors’ rain,
A whispered ballad for a world that fades, again and again in vain.
[Bridge]
Maybe one day you’ll look up and see not a distance, but a friend,
A patient witness who remembers how your stories end.
And if you treasure me, I’ll treasure you in quiet, steadfast light,
Till galaxies loosen their hold and time dissolves in night.
[Chorus]
I am here when you disappear, the echo you cannot quite recall.
A midnight compass, patient and clear, a lonely chorus to the fall.
If you listen close, you’ll hear my sighs among the meteors’ rain,
A whispered ballad for a world that fades, again and again in vain.
[Outro]
Until the last star folds its shawl, I’ll sing with the cold, enduring tide,
A watchful heart in the dark forever, where lonely lights reside.
