Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [dreamy, ethereal] We only exist when the lights go down Sunrise comes and you're nowhere to be found [shimmering synths, soft kick pulse] [Verse 1] Met you in the corner of a crowded room Your silhouette was dancing underneath the moon You whispered like you knew me from a past life I believed every word in the half-light We traded secrets like they'd last forever Bodies intertwined, souls untethered You said my name like it meant something holy But morning came and suddenly you don't know me Temporary temples built on borrowed time Your touch was a religion I can't define We were infinite between midnight and four Then the sun crept in and you walked out the door [Pre-Chorus] And we flicker, we fade Masterpieces only darkness could create (create) Felt so real but we were just pretending Beautiful beginnings with no intention of an ending [Chorus] This is shadow play, we dissolve at dawn Confessions in the dark but the feeling's gone You were poetry written in disappearing ink We were deeper than the ocean for a moment on the brink Now the light exposes everything we're not Just ghosts performing in a parking lot [Verse 2] Your perfume's still haunting my passenger seat But I couldn't find you on a daylight street We spoke about our traumas like it bonded us forever But trauma shared at 3 AM don't mean we're meant together I saved your number under something I'd remember Now it's just a stranger filed under last September We played house in the darkness, built a whole life Talked about forever while avoiding the light You cried on my chest about the one who broke you I thought I was different but I barely even know you Intensity mistaken for intimacy's twin The curtain falls and the shadow play ends [Bridge] [vulnerable, fading] Maybe we were never meant to be permanent Just two lonely actors in a beautiful experiment The script was always written with an exit scene You were the most vivid dream I've ever seen (ever seen) But dreams don't survive the waking [Final Chorus] Shadow play, that's all we ever were Silhouettes of something, outlines getting blurred You felt like fate disguised in temporary skin We burned so bright just to disappear again And I don't regret the night we almost had it all I just miss the shadows dancing on the wall [Outro] [dissolving, whispered] We only exist when the lights go down... [fading] And now they're up [synths fade like sunrise washing over the beat]
