[Violin solo]
[Verse 1 teenage male voice]
We used to breathe the same quiet air,
Same footsteps fading down the street.
Now the sky turns a shade I don’t recognize,
And your kindness feels out of reach.
I cut my heart to keep it strong,
But it wanders with nowhere to land.
If this mess is what living means,
I’ll close my eyes and let it stand.
[Pre-Chorus]
Under the cold and breaking sky,
I whisper words that never fly.
[Chorus]
We were so close, but something changed,
The sunset wears another face.
Not a single word can reach you now,
You’re running fast, I’m standing still somehow.
We were so close, now torn apart,
Let the moonlight rock this restless heart.
Just let me sleep in silver light,
Quiet dreams to last the night.
[Verse 2]
If you learn to walk with fate,
There’s no time to say you’re scared.
Sadness doesn’t slow the clock,
Loneliness just disappears.
All the words we tied together
Turned to echoes, thin and weak.
You just want to kill the night,
While I’m drowning silently.
[Pre-Chorus]
Two uneven souls, no place to go,
Still I miss you more than you know.
[Chorus]
We were so close, but now I see
A stranger in your profile of me.
I’m caught off guard by who you are,
Your light still pulls me from afar.
We were so close, but can’t return,
Your passion’s fire has just begun.
Not a single word gets through,
Still my heart is calling you.
[Bridge]
Where is your heart drifting now?
What wind decides your way somehow?
I pray your eyes won’t lose their truth,
Even if I’m not beside you.
[Violin solo]
[Final Chorus]
We were so close, yet time rewrote
The colors in the evening glow.
If nothing else remains to do,
I’ll leave these quiet dreams with you.
We were so close, and still I stay
Beneath this moon till break of day.
Different skies, a softer goodnight,
Sleep in peace, embraced by light.
