Titel: TAPE GHOSTS (Intro – Heartbeat. Clock ticking. Tape hiss. A coin spins. Everything slowly swallowed by echo.) Verse 1 There’s a room where the silence hums, Dust on wires, forgotten drums. Every echo knows my name, Nothing here has ever changed. A heartbeat hides beneath the floor, Like it was waiting at the door. The clock keeps breathing every chime, Someone trapped inside of time. Pre-Chorus Turn the reel… don’t let it stop. Every second starts to talk. Chorus We’re only tape ghosts in the machine, Living inside forgotten dreams. Every echo calls me back again, Where the future sounds like yesterday. Round and round the shadows flow, Where they end, nobody knows. If you hear my voice tonight… Don’t rewind. Verse 2 A silver coin rolls through the dark, Like it remembers where we are. Every choice we never made Still survives on fading tape. Voices bloom, then disappear, Some are yours, some aren’t here. Every layer hides one more, Behind another closing door. Bridge (Backward whispers. Instruments dissolve into tape echoes.) If time could bleed, Would it sound like me? If memory breaks, Who rewinds the mistakes? Final Chorus We’re only tape ghosts in the machine, Burning softly through the seams. Every echo keeps us half alive, Long after goodbye survived. The heartbeat fades… The clock remains… One last echo… Still knows my name. (Outro – The heartbeat stops. The clock continues alone. Tape slowly winds down.)
