[Intro] When the body sleeps, does something wake? When the light goes out,what keeps the shape? [VERSE I] I have been here inside this name. I have been near the edge of flame. If I let go, what will remain? A little silence. a little rain. [REFRAIN — extremely slow] Is there life after death? Or only life without us? Is there a place beyond breath? Or only the dark around us? [VERSE II] The stars don't answer. They only burn. The dead don't return. Or maybe we don't learn. Every face becomes a trace. Every voice leaves an empty space. [REFRAIN — deeper, layered] Is there life after death? Is there sound after silence? Is there love after breath? Or only the absence of violence? [BRIDGE — spoken, enormous reverb] Maybe death is not a door. Maybe there was never a door. Maybe we were always moving from one silence to another. [FINAL — progressively quieter] If I disappear... don't call me back. If I become nothing... let nothing have me. If there is another side... I will arrive without a name. [OUTRO — whispered at extreme distance] Are you still there?... Are you still there?... I am here.
