Counting numbers

(Verse 1)

Zero was silence, the calm before sound,

A breath in the dark where no answers are found.

One came a spark, then two made a flame,

We danced in the rhythm, no need for a name.

Three was the beat of a midnight street,

Four was the echo beneath my feet.

Five was the hour I started to roam,

Six was the road that led me from home.

(Pre-Chorus)

Seven skies turned gold to blue,

Eight hands I passed, but none felt true...

(Chorus)

Then came the night, the curve, the sign,

The whisper soft at number nine.

She moved like time but stayed like fate,

In every number, I’d hesitate.

But nine was more — a silent code,

A truth I knew, but never showed.

(Verse 2)

Zero again, but now it's peace,

The chaos inside found its release.

One is me, but not alone,

Since nine appeared, this heart found home.

(Bridge)

I won’t say her name, it’s not for show,

But in that number, the real ones know.

(Chorus – repeat)

Then came the night, the curve, the sign,

The whisper soft at number nine...
