[Instrumental Intro] [Intro] Under azure’s fractured guise, A flicker roots in seaborne ties. A heart of kelp, of pearl, of ash, Bound beneath the current’s lash. [Instrumental] [Verse 1] We met where spindrift kissed the shale, Your breath, a siren in the gale. The brackish scent of fate’s decree, Love’s tide devoured both you and me. [Instrumental rise] [Pre-Chorus] You vanished with the moon’s ascent, Yet your refrain in waves is pent. [Chorus] Heart like brine, it sears, it clings, To fleeting shades and broken strings. Heart like brine, it ebbs, it sways, An endless hymn of yesterdays. [Instrumental: Flowing] [Verse 2] I dove through wrecks of silt and vine, Through cathedrals lost to brine. Your shadow danced in phosphor’s glow, A specter deep where sailors go. [Instrumental Rise] [Pre-Chorus] Your face still blooms in tides’ embrace, A phantom carved in ocean’s face. [Chorus] Heart like brine, it sears, it clings, To fleeting shades and broken strings. Heart like brine, it ebbs, it sways, An endless hymn of yesterdays. [Instrumental: Sparse] [Bridge] Oh, to drift where starlight spills, Through seagrass plains and sunken hills. I carry you, my ocean’s scar, A silent reef, a drowned memoir. [Instrumental: Crescendo into final chorus] [Final Chorus] Heart like brine, it sears, it clings, To fleeting shades and broken strings. Heart like brine, it ebbs, it sways, An endless hymn of yesterdays. [Instrumental pause] [Outro] And still it pulls, though tides relent, Your name engraved in sediment. [Instrumental fade out] [Instrumental: Fading melody, soft and melancholic] [Outro] And still it pulls, though tides relent, Your name engraved in sediment. [Instrumental fade out]
