Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dust on the dashboard glow
Map in the glove box
Torn
Your name in the rearview glass
Fading each mile we pass
Half of a Polaroid smile
Folded and frayed at the sides
I talk to the empty seat
Hope answers from the white lines
[Chorus]
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
Calling your name into the dark
Hoping the silence pays the cost
If I drive far enough
Fast enough
Will the past turn back for us?
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost (oh)
[Verse 2]
Gas station coffee at two
Steam writing ghosts in the air
I swear I can feel you move
Each time I turn and you’re not there
Radio stuck on a song
That knew us better than we did
I kill it and hum along
Still singing like a foolish kid
[Chorus]
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
Calling your name into the dark
Hoping the silence pays the cost
If I drive far enough
Fast enough
Will the past turn back for us?
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
[Bridge]
What if you’re already home
Sleeping through this storm
What if I’m the only ghost
Still circling where we were born
I keep my foot on the floor
Eyes up
Hands shaking on the wheel
Trying to outrun the thought
That some heartbeats never heal
[Chorus]
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost
Calling your name into the dark
Hoping the silence pays the cost
If I love hard enough
Long enough
Will the night give you back to us?
In the shadow of forgotten stars
We chase the echo of a heartbeat lost

Style
Atmospheric alt-pop ballad, male vocals. Soft piano and airy pads in the verses; subtle electronic pulses like distant radar. Chorus blooms with wide synths, warm sub, and tight, layered harmonies. Drums stay minimal and spacious, with reverse swells and filtered delays that tug into a cinematic bridge before a stripped final hook.
