Asteway Shutter

[Intro] Shadows on the hinge of dawn, a quiet street sighs A memory clicks like a shutter, catching light in his eyes [Verse 1] Asteway whispers, steps align with gravity He moves through the hush of morning, chasing what will be His own shutter snaps the moment, frame by frame he knows What time can hold in silver threads, what nobody shows [Pre-Chorus] If plans collapse to whispers, he won’t ask for a sign He keeps walking toward the blur where the streets align [Chorus] Hold the view, hold it tight, don’t let the daylight fade Every breath a tiny frame, a picture handmade His own shutter opens wide, catching what’s true and small Asteway leads the way, through the quiet, through it all [Verse 2] Hi knows the map of sidewalks, every crack and glow He reads the city’s weather, lets the currents flow A steel-blue horizon hums a distant, honest tune He stamps the pavement with a promise: I’ll be there soon [Pre-Chorus] If the morning breaks soft or stormy gray in hue He keeps the pulse of courage beating, faithful and new [Chorus] Hold the view, hold it tight, don’t let the daylight fade Every breath a tiny frame, a picture handmade His own shutter opens wide, catching what’s true and small Asteway leads the way, through the quiet, through it all [Bridge] Morning folds into memory, a gallery of start and fear But he steps into the light again, the image becoming clear [Chorus] Hold the view, hold it tight, don’t let the daylight fade Every breath a tiny frame, a picture handmade His own shutter opens wide, catching what’s true and small Asteway leads the way, through the quiet, through it all [Outro] Shutter sings a soft hello as doors begin to swing He walks the line between could and will, the future on the wing
