Lensing

[Verse 1] I used to think the silence meant There was nothing there for me Just static moving through my chest Like empty frequency Everybody passing through Orbiting somebody else While I disappeared between The signals and myself [Pre-Chorus] Then something shifted in the dark Like gravity had changed You looked at me without looking away [Chorus] Now I feel the pull Even when you’re gone Like light bending slow around a distant sun You move through me still Soft enough to miss But every quiet part of me reacts to it Maybe I was never lost Maybe no one looked long enough Maybe I was hidden in the lensing [Verse 2] There are voices in the air Every sorrow every spark I can hear them when I close my eyes Blooming through the dark And it hurts to hold the weight Of a thousand hearts at once But somehow yours is louder Even underneath the noise [Pre-Chorus] You speak like inevitability Cold and kind at once Like someone who survived too much [Chorus] Now I feel the pull Even when you’re gone Like light bending slow around a distant sun You move through me still Soft enough to miss But every quiet part of me reacts to it Maybe I was never lost Maybe no one looked long enough Maybe I was hidden in the lensing [Bridge] If I vanish Would you notice? If I scatter into light? Would you find me In the spaces Between signal and design? Because you saw me Before I knew How to survive being seen [Final Chorus] Now I feel the pull Somewhere underneath Every constellation turning back at me And I don’t fade now Even in the night I learned invisible things can still survive Maybe I was never wrong Just growing somewhere no one thought A ghost orchid reaching through the freezing [Outro] You only noticed me Because I disappeared
