Lyrics
(Soft piano — almost no percussion at first)
Verse 1
You stood beside me
like a mirror learning how to breathe
half made from shadows
half from things I couldn’t keep
And all that silence
started sounding like a hymn
I should’ve known
how dangerous it is
to let somebody see you fully
⸻
Verse 2
Now every streetlight
holds your outline for a second
every empty room
feels like something was interrupted
You said the lonely ones
build religions out of people
I didn’t know
you were speaking
about yourself
⸻
Chorus
So why does grief arrive
after the story ends?
Why do I feel you most
now that you’re gone?
And if love was just
two ruined minds recognising themselves
then maybe we were holy
for a moment
⸻
(Instrumental swell — strings enter softly)
⸻
Verse 3
I still hear rain
when the house goes quiet
still see your face
inside my own reflection
And somewhere underneath
all the fear and violence
there was a person
begging not to disappear
⸻
Final Chorus (bigger, more emotional)
So why does grief arrive
after the story ends?
Why does absence
sound louder than truth?
You were not a monster
until the world taught you survival
and I was not innocent
for needing you too
⸻
(Music strips back down — almost acapella)
Outro
Some people die twice…
once in front of you
and once
inside your memory
(Long piano decay into silence)
