(Gypsy violin intro)
(Verse 1)
We carry ourselves on borrowed constellations
A fate that could never be mine.
I called it love you called it tragic
Walls between us too vast to fight.
Tell me what does it take for a star to die?
(Pre-chorus)
In another life,
In another time
Through the astral veil,
would our stars have shifted?
What will it take for me to see you’ll never be mine?
(Chorus)
I stole colors from a dying summer
You kept orbiting a fading sun
We made a world no light could enter
And vanished when morning would come
But I still hear you in the dark of the night sky
I can still smell you on the decay of the pines
You are the allegory of who I became
(Final Verse)
I spent years looking for echoes of your light
In strangers passing through my life
You disappeared with my innocence
And left rearranged constellations
(music shift)
So the girl who once adored you
Moved through unfamiliar heavens
Until I saw which stars were mine
(Bridge)
Some loves are written only in shadows
Still, they rewrite us all the same
I stole colors from a dying summer
You kept orbiting a fading sun
We made a world no light could enter
And vanished when morning would come
But I still hear you in the dark of the night sky
I still smell you in the decay of the pines
You were the allegory of who I’d become
Gravity I learned to leave behind
(Outro)
Some worlds exist only to change us
Some stars were never meant to sine
I walk towards my own horizon now
And let your light fade away
