[Verse 1] They carved my face in silver sleep, A lantern hung above the deep. But when the song below me swelled, My quiet edges cracked and held. [Verse 2] Each note, a fracture in my shell, Each sorrow spun into a spell. I tried to turn away, to fade, But beauty always makes me stay. [Chorus] I am not whole, I am not gone— A mirror split by ancient song. Still glowing where the pieces lie, A lullaby for shattered sky. [Bridge] I saw the beast with weeping light, Its eye a prism, burning bright. It sang not to be known or crowned, But just to feel the world around. [Verse 3] The stars all whispered, “Let it go,” But I remained to watch it glow. A guardian of aching sound, That shook the tides and shook the ground. [Chorus] I am not whole, I am not gone— A mirror split by ancient song. Still glowing where the pieces lie, A lullaby for shattered sky. [Outro] So if you dream and hear me hum, Know even moons can come undone. And still we shine, though torn and bent— Each broken piece a firmament.
