Verse I
Living off nights that never come,
promises whispered in his mind,
his pulse is full of illusions
and a reflection that won’t look behind.
He feeds on what he imagines,
on a future that never asks why,
chasing shadows with open eyes
that are always just out of reach in time.
Pre-Chorus
He wants it all, even if it costs his soul,
even if rest is the price to pay,
he knows the summit likes to lie,
still he climbs it anyway.
Chorus
He’s consumed by his desires,
things that will never come alive,
he loves the idea more than the memory
of something he’ll never touch in life.
Ambition dressed up as hope,
rejection learned how to breathe,
he’d rather burn inside a fantasy
than surrender to reality.
Verse II
He collects broken dreams
like trophies of what could’ve been,
says the emptiness is just a reminder
he wants more than what he’s seen.
It’s not sadness driving him forward,
it’s hunger for something unreal,
a twisted, stubborn kind of faith
that desire itself is a way to feel.
Pre-Chorus
Every “no” just makes him stronger,
every limit, another fight,
he knows losing’s part of the journey
and still he bets his life.
Chorus
He’s consumed by his desires,
things that will never come alive,
he loves the idea more than the memory
of something he’ll never touch in life.
Ambition dressed up as hope,
rejection learned how to breathe,
he’d rather burn inside a fantasy
than surrender to reality.
Bridge
And even knowing it was never his,
he never stops wanting it the same,
some defeats give meaning to living,
some dreams teach you how to walk through pain.
Final Chorus
Consumed, yeah… but wide awake,
eyes locked on the unreal sky,
he never had all that he wanted,
but he wanted it without fear of trying.
