[Verse 1]
You sit alone, beneath the darkened skies,
With quiet eyes that shun the world’s disguise.
There’s a fire within, faint and unshown,
A silent heart I’ve come to call my own.

The streets pass by, they’re ghosts to you,
The noisy throngs, a muted view.
You tell me tales of hollow crowds,
And all their games that speak too loud.

[Chorus]
But I see through the shadows you weave,
A light you hide, though hard to believe.
In apathy’s cloak, your kindness lies,
A hidden flame that never dies.
The world may fade, a distant blur,
But in your depths, you are tender, sure.
A heart that’s bruised, yet fiercely beats,
In whispered warmth the world retreats.

[Verse 2]
You wear your walls like armor strong,
A lone wolf’s soul that roams too long.
The world, you say, is sharp and cold,
Not worth the weight of stories told.

And yet I’ve felt your quiet touch,
A fleeting warmth, though not too much.
You hold your love in careful lines,
Afraid to cross, to risk, to bind.

[Bridge - dial down intensity]
Oh, love, you mask your soul so well,
In silence deep, like ocean’s swell.
A fortress high, of stone and ice,
That shields your heart and holds your vice.

[Bridge - pick up the phase]
Yet in the night when dreams run wild,
You breathe, you live, a wounded child.
I see the spark within your gaze,
A flame untouched by the world’s malaise.

[Instrumental]

[Outro]
A buried light, so faint, so true—
I’ll hold the warmth I’ve found in you.

[end]
