Half Awake (Gothic Visual-Kei Re:Orchestration/Cover, SeraphOfFall Style)

[Verse 1 – smooth, intimate tone, lo-fi pad ambience]
Falling through the same old dream,
Touch the sky, it pulls away — (it pulls away...)
Guess I’m meant to float this way. (oh yeah...)
Every heartbeat, déjà vu,
Every mirror shows the truth — (shows the truth...)
Every night I build a world I can’t keep,
Wake up in the silence, lost in what I used to be. (used to be...)

(slight rasp / whisper ad-lib)
All these visions in my head,
They burn bright, then they’re dead, (dead, yeah...)
I still see that better me,
In the glass I used to be,
But the cracks don’t fade — they’re part of me. (mmm, they’re part of me...)

[Verse 2 / Reflection – layered vocals, darker tone, pulsing 808s]
Dreams replay in black and chrome,
Feels like I’m a ghost at home. (ghost at home... oh-oh...)
Every hope I held turns gray,
Still I can’t look away. (can’t look away...)
Every win feels like a fake parade. (fake parade, yeah...)

Promises that wilt before they grow,
I built my heaven out of borrowed hope,
But every light I make just fades to smoke. (fades to smoke... mmm...)

[Bridge / Drop Moment – wide stereo, emotional falsetto lift]
If I wake up, will I still stay? (still stay...)
Dream too loud, I can’t escape. (nah nah nah... can’t escape...)
Let me fade, let me fade. (fade... oh, fade...)
So let me drift, let me fall unseen,
If I never wake, at least I’ll be free — (be free... yeah...)

[Outro / Loop Hook – soft vocal loop, ethereal reverb trail]
Half alive, half asleep — half awake. (half awake... oh-oh...)
(Still chasing what I’ll never make.)
Half awake… half awake… (mmm...)
Yeah, I’m floatin’, I’m floatin’ away… (I’m floatin’ away... oh...)

[Intro / Hook – breathy, distant, heavy reverb] (soft echo, fading in) Half alive, half asleep — half awake. [low harmony hums under] (Still chasing what I’ll never make.) Half awake, half alive, can’t tell if I’m dreamin’. Half a heart, half a life, can’t tell what I’m feelin’. (oh, oh-oh...) Yeah, I’m floatin’, I’m floatin’ away… (mmm... driftin’ away...)
