Verse 1)
Neon lights hum, cold in the room
A thousand colors, a heavy bloom
Beep at the counter, a blade in the dark
Perfume and plastic, a chemical spark
Chest getting heavy, ceiling feels low
Trapped in the aisle with nowhere to go
Holding my breath in a crowded space…
(Piano: Glasklares, hauchzartes Einzelnoten-Arpeggio; Gesang: Extrem nah am Mikrofon, völlig naturbelassen, ruhig und klar flüsternd)
(Pre-Chorus)
I read your lips to catch what you say
A wave of static washes words away
Every signal on high, no switch on the wall
Drowning in noise, waiting to fall
(Piano: Töne werden etwas tiefer, klingen lang und rein aus; Chor: Ganz leiser, hauchzarter A-cappella-Teppich im Hintergrund; Gesang: Bleibt unangestrengt und berührend schlicht)
(Chorus)
Away. Out. To my Event Horizon!
Where the noise dies down
A world at the max in a quiet riot
Where the lost are found
Yeah, I see why I’m built this way
Still a lonely place where I have to stay
Away. Out. To my Event Horizon!
Where the noise dies down…
Just one step out of line.
(Piano: Weiche, tragende Akkorde wie ruhige Wellen; Chor: Warm, nah und harmonisch, ohne den Gesang zu erdrücken; Gesang: Emotional klar, offen und verletzlich)
(Verse 2)
Seam on my shoulder, a slow-burning scar
Clattering glasses from a distant bar
I drink in your mood before you can speak
The texture, the taste, the static at peak
Building my island, brick by raw brick
Unorthodox shield, my own quiet trick
Stealing a moment, a midnight retreat
Stopping the currents inside of me…
(Piano: Kehrt zurück zum puristischen, zarten Ausdünnen der Töne; Gesang: Sehr intim, entschleunigt, fast wie ein vertrauliches Geständnis)
(Chorus)
Away. Out. To my Event Horizon!
Where the noise dies down
A world at the max in a quiet riot
Where the lost are found
Yeah, I see why I’m built this way
Still a lonely place where I have to stay
Away. Out. To my Event Horizon!
Where the noise dies down…
Just one step out of line.
(Piano: Fließend, transparent und voller Resonanz; Chor: Sanfter Gegenpart zur Hauptstimme; Dynamik: Ruhig fließende Intensität anstelle von Lautstärke)
(Bridge)
Not broken, no, just bare
An open nerve in the midnight air
Relief to know who I am inside…
Where the water stays wide
Yeah, the water stays wide.
(Piano: Reduziert auf einzelne, schwebende Anschläge; Chor: Sehr dezenter, warmer Vocal-Pad-Klang; Gesang: Reine, unpolierte Emotion)
(Chorus - Big Climax)
Away. Out. To my Event Horizon!
Where the noise dies down
A world at the max in a quiet riot
Where the lost are found
Away. Out. To my Event Horizon!
Just one step out of line.
(Piano & Chor: Erreichen gemeinsam die größte Weite – nicht laut oder aggressiv, sondern tief, berührend und raumgreifend wie eine stille Nacht)
(Outro)
The register fades… One deep exhale.
Out.
To my Event Horizon.
Just the water.
Just silence.
(Piano: Allerletzter, federleichter Ton, der langsam im Raum nachklingt; Gesang: Ausgehauchte letzte Worte; Dynamik: Geht nahtlos in völlige Stille über)
