[Intro] (whispers over ambient drone) You were the verdict I ran to... I was the sentence you wore like skin... [Verse 1] Footsteps in frozen rain The silence calls your name We danced on fault lines deep Where secrets never sleep Your voice, a ghost in glass I breathe but never ask You moved like distant stars While I traced all our scars mmmm mmm [Chorus] And under the judgement moon We swore we’d heal too soon But mercy fades with time Like blood that won't align You are the truth I can't defend I am the lie you won’t amend We stayed inside the storm Too cold to feel, too dark to warm [Verse 2] You wear your grace like stone I built my shame alone The past we tried to fake Now echoes every break No one can cleanse this fate Or rewrite love too late You shined, untouchable I drowned, so culpable mmmm mmm [Chorus] And under the judgement moon We swore we’d heal too soon But mercy fades with time Like blood that won’t align You are the truth I can't defend I am the lie you won’t amend We stayed inside the storm Too cold to feel, too dark to warm [electric guitar solo] [Bridge – stripped instrumentation] This isn’t love, it’s penance worn A rose that bloomed with every thorn No vows, no second breath Just silence echoing through death [Build up] mmmm mmm [Final Chorus – half-time, rising intensity] And under the judgement moon I gave my heart too soon But still I watched you rise While I stood paralyzed You are the fire I let consume I am the ash outside your room And if I disappear Just know I held you near mmmmmm [Outro – ambient fade, whispered line] Judgement came and left me whole... In pieces only you could hold...
