Fading Pulse

turn the lights down…

i can feel my heartbeat slow…

but it’s not for me… it’s still for you…

(slow synth pad, heavy reverb, heartbeat-kick)

⸻

I gave you pieces I can’t replace

My soul still bleeds in empty space

You said love’s a risk, I said I’d pay

Now I’m broke in every way

(ad-lib)

every way… every way…

I’m drowning quiet in the sound

Of everything we lost, it’s loud

I thought I’d save you, thought I could

Now I’m buried where I stood

⸻

You’re the ghost inside my chest

Every breath, a fading test

Can’t forget, can’t confess

That I’m addicted to the mess

⸻

Let me fade, let me fade in your light

Bleeding love through another night

If this is peace, I don’t wanna fight

I’m alive, but I don’t feel right

(echo)

don’t feel right… feel right…

⸻

Your name still burns behind my eyes

Like sirens screaming lullabies

You said “maybe we’re just too scarred”

Now I wear your words like stars

(ad-lib)

like stars… like scars…

The mirror cracks, I see it clear

I lost myself to keep you near

I tried to heal you with my pain

Now I’m empty once again

⸻

Every tear I kept inside (inside…)

Built the ocean where I hide (where I hide…)

If love’s a fire, I’m the smoke

Drifting high until I choke

⸻

Let me fade, let me fade in your light

Bleeding out just to feel alive

If this is love, then I’ll pay the price

I’m alive, but I don’t feel right

(ad-libs)

bleed it out… fade tonight…

hold me close… let me die…

⸻

i’m not gone… just out of sight…

still bleeding in your light…
