There Was Movement

[Intro – no vocal, distant resonance] [Verse 1] I was running I remember the sound Feet breaking silence On a hollow ground Now there’s nothing Only weight in the air Every motion Stops somewhere --- [Verse 2] My hands won’t answer My lungs won’t rise Something pulling From inside I can feel it Slow beneath my skin Like the night Is folding in --- [Chorus – hushed, sustained, with whisper layers] Don’t let me sink Don’t let me fall Something is waiting Under it all Don’t let me fade Don’t let me stay I hear the echo Of running away --- [Verse 3] There was movement There was light There was distance There was fight Now it’s heavy Now it’s slow Every memory Lets me go --- [Bridge – fragmented, almost spoken] Still… here… Still… awake… Something… holding… Every break… I can’t lift it I can’t stand I am buried In its hand --- [Final Chorus – more suffocated, layered whispers] Don’t let me sink Don’t let me drown Something is pulling Further down Don’t let me fade Don’t let me stay I hear the echo Drifting away --- [Outro – near silence, breath + decay] No more running… No more sound… Only something… Pulling… down…
