[Intro - atmospheric, spacey] [Verse] Streetlights down below are painting grids of gold Another story of the city getting told But I'm not listening... I'm looking past the haze At the few stars burning through the city's hazy blaze. [Pre-Chorus] And every single one... is a ghost of ancient fire Burning in the darkness... pulling my heart higher... higher... [Chorus] And oh, I'm just a silhouette against a purple sky Asking questions to the cosmos that will never get a reply Are you out there somewhere too, just a lonely satellite? Lost inside the beauty of the melancholy night. [Verse] Remember you were tracing... constellations on my skin Told me every ending... is where new things can begin But that was long ago... a universe away Now the silence has a weight I can't seem to push away. [Pre-Chorus] And every single one... is a ghost of ancient fire Burning in the darkness... pulling my heart higher... higher... [Chorus] And oh, I'm just a silhouette against a purple sky Asking questions to the cosmos that will never get a reply Are you out there somewhere too, just a lonely satellite? Lost inside the beauty of the melancholy night. [Bridge] The stars don't have the answers... They just burn and burn and burn... A lesson in letting go... That I'm still trying to learn... [Outro - instrumental, atmospheric fade] (The steady beat returns for a final measure, then fades out slowly. The main synth pad holds, shimmering, and then fades into the sound of a gentle night wind, leaving silence.)
