[Intro] [operatic female vocalizing with heavy reverb] [orchestral strings and brass swell] [distorted guitar power chords and double-kick drums enter] [Verse 1] [male tenor vocals] [palm-muted guitar chugging] The shadows act in coffee rings On letters tucked beneath my bed The street lamp flickers never sings The lullaby you left unsaid [Chorus] [full band, driving double-kick drums] I wear your silence like a coat [female operatic vocalizing in background] Something for winter too tight to breathe Each breath I take is half a note Of songs you swore you'd sing to me Eternal eclipse I can't see your face Love burnt out in this empty space I throw my heart into the void And hear it echo under blue [Verse 2] [piano melody enters, drums drop out] The mirror shows a stranger now With eyes that haven't slept in years She mouths the vows you wouldn't vow And counts the cost of velvet tears [Pre-Chorus] [distorted guitars build with snare rolls] I light a candle made of wax From birthday cakes you never shared Its flame just laughs and cracks and masks Into the dark it always spared [Chorus] [full band, high energy] Eternal eclipse no longer the seal Your love's a wound that won't conceal I scream until my voice goes blue And still the night says not for you [Bridge] [orchestral strings, operatic female vocals] If heaven's real then lock the gate And toss the key into the sea I'll build an altar out of wait And worship what won't worship me [Guitar Solo] [harmonized lead guitars, rapid alternate picking, wah-wah effect] [Outro] [male and female vocals in unison] (Ah-ah-ah) Eternal eclipse I'm the flame that won't die Burning bright in a blind-man's sky This love is alive as bleeding through Come back or let me finish too [music fades with solo piano and soft strings]
