Lyrics
(Intro)
(Simple, repetitive piano melody in A minor, subtle chime, low string drone)
Like the moon's hidden face, I dwell in endless night
Existing unseen, untouched by your warmth and light
To this silent, cyclical dance, I've grown resigned
A voiceless act, for your eyes alone defined
(Pre-Chorus)
(Piano more active, cello mirrors melody, strings swell)
You glance above, your gaze passing through me with ease
Fourteen long months, as if I were just a breeze
We are the line where day surrenders to the night's embrace
Blurred, undefined, yet forever in this place
(Drop Build-Up)
(Snare drum on beats 2 and 4, rising bass line, tension builds)
(Chorus)
(Driving drums and bass, subtle synth layers, key change to C major in the second half)
Unseen, unheard, unloved, lost in shadows I remain
Yet, I'm drawn to your signal, a moth to a flame
(Key change, music opens up)
Perhaps I'm a planet, adrift in the cosmic dark
To orbit you my fate, eternally set apart
(Post-Chorus)
(Piano and light drums)
Perhaps I should become a meteor, bright and free
(Verse 2)
(Return to sparser arrangement)
You are a gentle sovereign, with hope in your command
Granting me solace, then crushing it with your hand
Like dandelion wishes, scattered with a careless "I'm sorry"
Leaving me lost, piecing together answers in a state of worry
(Bridge)
(Acoustic guitar, shaker, vocal chops)
(Female monologue, calm yet tinged with despair)
Fourteen months, a cycle on repeat it seems
I'm stuck in this loop, while you've moved on from our dreams
The rules of this game were always set in stone
Just a bit player in your story, unseen and unknown
Perhaps I should become a meteor, bright and free
(Chorus)
(Full arrangement, soaring strings, powerful vocals)
Unseen, unheard, unloved, I'm breaking from your hold
I will become a meteor, a story to be told
Perhaps I should become a meteor, bright and free
Even if I burn to dust, across your sky I'll blaze for all to see
(Outro)
(Music gradually fades, piano plays a hopeful variation of the intro melody, ending on an unresolved chord)
