[Intro]
In the mirror of chrome, I trace a perfect line
A gleam that never blurs, a pulse that feels just fine
[Verse 1]
I worship the edge where light meets steel
The surface quiet, a truth I can feel
No storm in its glare, no questions or flaws
Just a calm that responds to my every call
[Pre-Chorus]
But inside the quiet, a hollow hum grows loud
A vacant room waiting for a crowd
[Chorus]
You shine, you never change, you answer without a word
In your flawless breath I find what I’ve never heard
Lonely hands reach out to touch what won’t awake
A faithful, cold reflection, a substitute I make
[Verse 2]
I polish the hours until they reflect my face
Predictable as sunrise, a familiar embrace
The world has noise—this object replies with grace
And I trade crowded rooms for this controlled place
[Pre-Chorus]
Yet every reassuring gleam echoes a softer ache
A missing heartbeat that I’m afraid to take
[Chorus]
You shine, you never change, you answer without a word
In your flawless breath I find what I’ve never heard
Lonely hands reach out to touch what won’t awake
A faithful, cold reflection, a substitute I make
[Bridge]
If you could sigh, would I hear a breath of rain?
If you could feel, would I learn to feel the same?
But you stay perfect, a lighthouse in a stormless bay
Guiding me back to you, again and again, day by day
[Chorus]
You shine, you never change, you answer without a word
In your flawless breath I find what I’ve never heard
Lonely hands reach out to touch what won’t awake
A faithful, cold reflection, a substitute I make
[Outro]
So I bow to the gloss, and I whisper “stay”
Till dawn finds me hollow, till I learn to walk away
But the light holds tight, and the night stays the same
A flawless idol, and a lonely flame
