Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] In the garden past the gate Where the path just fades to gray Little crowns of yellow sway Though the sky is drained of day Petals shiver in the chill Breath like smoke above the hill Every stem is standing still Yet I feel them turning Turning [Chorus] Daffodils in the dark How do you bloom in the graveyard? Golden eyes Watching me In a ring where the roots keep secrets Daffodils in the dark Glow like candles around my heart Soft and pale Sweet and strange Calling out my name [Verse 2] Something hums beneath the soil Soft as lullabies in bloom All the faces bowed like prayer All the shadows bend toward you I could leave I never do Frozen at your fragile throne Every breeze that brushes through Whispers “You are not alone” (not alone) [Chorus] Daffodils in the dark How do you bloom in the graveyard? Golden eyes Watching me In a ring where the roots keep secrets Daffodils in the dark Glow like candles around my heart Soft and pale Sweet and strange Calling out my name [Bridge] One by one Little heads begin to turn All at once Every throat begins to burn And they laugh Soundless in the still night air As I kneel Pollen tangled in my hair (oh) [Chorus] Daffodils in the dark How do you bloom in the graveyard? Golden eyes Watching me In a ring where the roots keep secrets Daffodils in the dark Glow like candles around my heart If I sleep in your cold shade Will I wake the same?

Breathy female vocals over airy, minor-key synth pads and distant, pulsing low tones. Sparse piano motifs glimmer like candlelight; subtle reversed textures and whispered doubles creep in at the edges. Chorus blooms with layered, ghostly harmonies and soft, swelling choir pads. Reverb-washed bells and a distant, detuned music box add childlike unease. Slow build from fragile to hauntingly lush, then fade out on a single held vocal note and lingering ambience.
