Fading Into the Quiet

[Intro] Whispers in the void… Fading… drifting… Shadows of time… running away… [Verse 1] I wake in the silence, a pulse in the dark Footsteps in circles, I’m chasing a spark A machine on the wire, turning so slow But I can’t find the answers, no matter how low [Verse 2] Eyes full of visions that slip through my hands I’m building tomorrow, but it slips like sand The gears are still turning, I’m stuck in the grind But where does it lead, when I’ve lost my mind? [Chorus] I’m drowning Made a little money, but I’m losing the game The walls start to bend, and the time starts to break But I’m still here, waiting for the world to wake [Instrumental Break] [A deep, swirling guitar solo accompanied by ethereal synths, stretching the space between each note as if time itself is bending. The sound fades into a soft hum, like a heartbeat in the void.] [Verse 3] The sky cracks open, the sun turns to dust A thousand voices, but none I can trust I’m swimming in circles, with no shore to find Can’t escape the feeling that I’m losing my mind Did I give all I had, or is this all a game? Who’s pulling the strings when we’re all the same? I built a life, but the walls collapse What’s the point of reaching if you’re stuck in the pocket? [Chorus] I’m drowning Made a little money, but I’m losing the game The walls start to bend, and the time starts to break But I’m still here, waiting for the world to wake [Outro Talking] haunting, The sound of my mind slowly fading into a rhythmic pulse, then drifting into white noise. The final voice in a distant, cosmic tone
