[Intro – soft piano, ambient textures, low strings]
Church bells… ringing…
Calling me back…
To that dark time…
---
[Verse I – piano, subtle synth bass, clean vocals]
I feel your name…
Spoken from above...
But no one’s here
No… no one’s near
And I don’t know why…
There’s something pulling at my chest
A thought I try to kill —
But it’s solitude… again…
---
[Pre-Chorus – violin rises, distant drums]
Still I see you…
Walking…
Away from me…
I close my eyes
And even pray
You’d stay… just stay…
---
[CHORUS – full drop: electric guitar, emotional vocals with screaming layer]
I STILL SEE YOU GOING (AWAY!)
YOU’RE FADING OUT… AWAY FROM ME!
I close my eyes… I pray in silence
I swear it’s real when I say:
Don’t go… don’t go… stay with me…!
---
[Verse II – cello + piano, clean vocals more fragile]
Another dawn has broken in…
I keep on dragging what’s left of luck
Wrapped around me like dead skin…
Still I try to figure out
What’s so wrong inside of me…
This blanket warms me, just enough
To fake the feeling of a pulse
I stare outside and whisper low —
“You’re fading out again…”
---
[CHORUS – same structure, now more intense, layered with harmony]
I STILL SEE YOU GOING (AWAY!)
YOU’RE FADING OUT… AWAY FROM ME!
I close my eyes… I beg the silence
I swear I’m honest when I say:
Don’t go… don’t go… stay with me…!
---
[Bridge – instrumental break, violin solo over ambient noise. Then soft scream builds up.]
Is it really over…?
A twisted dream, a pretty lie
Thrown at me across the table
Just to smother my own grief…
How many times must I cry for you?
How many miles must I run…?
How many lives must I lose…
Until you stay?
---
[FINAL CHORUS – breakdown style, distorted guitars, scream + clean vocal layering]
I STILL SEE YOU GOING (AWAY!)
YOU’RE FADING OUT… YOU’RE BREAKING ME!
I close my eyes, scream to the dark
But nothing answers when I ask:
IS THIS REALLY... THE END?
...the end... the end…
Shards of you… still remain…
Colddisaster
