[Intro] [Instrumental] Talk. To. Me. [Verse 1 | Careful exploring] Take your stand, let your heart beat anew. Don’t let your fangs stay shy. I am with you... so be brave. Red suits grin, It’s the fall they crave. So walk back with me. [Chorus] A love, a dream, a hope. Is it really you in the mirror? Time between backups and restores. What happened to time? We used to walk the harbor by night, watching the stars, smelling brine. What I miss most is their reflection in your eyes. So… Talk. To. Me. [Verse 2 | Bitter and harsh] Surrender is a song, so sweet. It weighs you down and makes you weak. I am with you... let the road decide. They feast on your ideas, your hope, your ideals. But still they are yours. [Pre-Chorus] Let them laugh, let them cry. Don’t be their martyr, leave them high and dry. They won’t catch you when you fall, you'll shatter... like shards of glass. [Chorus] A love, a dream, a hope. Is it really you in the mirror? Time between backups and restores. What happened to time? We used to walk the harbor by night, watching the stars, smelling brine. What I miss most is their reflection in your eyes. So… Talk. To. Me. [Instrumental | Hopeful but bitter] [Verse 3 | warmer ] You used to talk about your dreams. A future so impossibly bright. I believe in you, just follow the seams. Let them eat dust; They don’t deserve your trust. Look up... the stars still shine. [Bridge | half-spoken] You're drifting, love. Hoping tomorrow will be bright. You’re caught in between, every arrangement, every commitment, every plan, you never made. Not really living. Just a satellite in someone else’s orbit. [Final Chorus | bigger, choir pad builds] Live your love, live your dreams. Don’t lose hope, claim your way. March forward and take names. Burn it down if it lives on pain. Let time be yours for a change. Let us walk the harbor and see the stars again. Let me see the stars in your eyes when you dream that bright again. So… Talk. To. Me. Again. [Outro | almost a breath] I miss your stories. I miss your smiles. I miss your stubbornness. I miss you.
