[Verse 1] Moon-lacquer eaves, silk-soft tread, quiet rooflines under my head. Koto ticks thin, the city slow, I draw a curve no streetlights know. [Pre-Chorus – 5/4] float—fold—hide—glide—go, breathe—align—edge—low. [7/8 pickup] step—turn—blink—gone— [Chorus] (loopable, elegant) I glide, I glide—no sound, no scar; hush in the dark, I write the star. I glide, I glide—silk over stone; lock in the line—unseen, unknown. [Post] glide—glide—lock in. [Verse 2] Paper-thin code, ink on the vein, fan-shadow flick, silver rain. Shō holds below, hichiriki sighs— I fold the night and slip its eyes. [Pre-Chorus – 5/4] slow—close—curve—below— breathe—decide—now—go. [7/8 pickup] turn—spark—vanish— [Final Chorus] I glide, I glide—no sound, no scar; silk cuts the grid, I pass the bar. I glide, I glide—light over bone; hard stop—then hush: unknown. [Tag] breathe—close—end.
