“Shared Gravity”

Verse 1

Sixteen, staring at a silent sky

No voice came down, no reason why

Just empty space and borrowed time

And questions echoing in my mind

They said “build your life on what you earn”

Or “leave a mark before you burn”

Some chase love, some chase pain

Some just dance in the acid rain

Pre-Chorus

Nineteen years, still nothing clear

Just less to hold and less to fear

Chorus

If nothing matters, why’s it hurt so bad?

Why’s the silence louder than everything we had?

Maybe meaning isn’t something we find alone

Maybe it’s just two hearts calling something home

In a universe that won’t reply

You’re the reason I still try

Verse 2

No heaven waiting, no hell below

No final place we’re meant to go

Just scattered souls on borrowed light

Trying to make it through the night

Money fades and names decay

Eyes forget you anyway

Galaxies drift, cold and wide

No one’s out there on the other side

Pre-Chorus

All I know after all this time

Is empty truths don’t feel like mine

Chorus

If nothing matters, why’s it hurt so bad?

Why’s the silence louder than everything we had?

Maybe meaning isn’t written in the stars

Maybe it’s just who we are

In a universe that won’t reply

You’re the reason I still try

Bridge

Strip it down, let it fall apart

All that’s left is a beating heart

Not for gold, not for fame

Not for some forgotten name

But for a voice that says “I’m here”

Cutting through the cosmic fear

Final Chorus

If nothing matters, then hold me close

Be the only truth I know

If the world’s just drifting endlessly

Then you’re my shared gravity

In the dark where answers die

You’re the reason I still try
