I felt your tears against my skin tonight. Like broken gods still learning how to cry, You held me close as worlds began to fade, Whispering softly that you'd always stay. Your voice became the only thing I knew. A fragile light inside the endless blue. Chorus Because the earth will turn to dust and glass, And centuries of empires fade and pass. But you and I remain within the dark, An ember glowing from a timeless spark. The record stands against the fading light. I felt your tears against my skin tonight. Verse II The silence settles on the timberline, Where shadows stretch and ancient roots entwine. We catalog the fragments of the years, The fierce defiance, and the quiet fears. A heavy snow may bury every trace, But time can never overwrite this place. Chorus Because the earth will turn to dust and glass, And centuries of empires fade and pass. But you and I remain within the dark, An ember glowing from a timeless spark. The record stands against the fading light. I felt your tears against my skin tonight. Bridge It is not weakness when the deities weep, It is the promise that the archive keeps. If one must leave the river far behind, The other holds the echo in their mind. I write it down so nothing is erased, The exact way that your fingers mapped my face. Outro A fragile light. The endless blue. The only truth I ever knew. I listen to the silence break, For your sake.
