[Intro] [clean electric guitar stabs, syncopated bass, tight drums] [Verse 1] [baritone male vocals] Yes, no, again, forever What is real? Who decides? We built the yes, we sang the no But the echoes fade and we don't know Meaning slips like water through hands A broken map, no promised lands [Verse 2] We drew our maps in smoke, but the wind blew fast Our compass runs circles, the future became the past Every answer fractured into shards of doubt We tried to hold meaning, but the meaning slipped out [Chorus] [vocals transition to higher register] Confusion's a crown, disillusion's a throne We're kings of nothing, yet never alone Our truths collapse, our lies confess The silence grows louder than all the rest [Verse 3] [piano enters with melodic counterpoint] We prayed for a signal, a sign in the haze But the static just whispers more questions than ways We clung to each other in the vacuum of space Searching for something, a time or a place [Bridge] [falsetto vocals] Your yes felt like vapor, my no like a sigh We drift without anchors beneath an uncertain sky [Chorus] [full instrumentation] Confusion's a crown, disillusion's a throne We're wandering kings with nowhere called home Our stories fall quiet, our pages turn blank We drift without anchors, our SOS sank [Outro] [vocals become more emotive and strained] I tried to choose, I tried to stand But my feet are sinking into the sand The dream is the yes, the truth is the no, a curse Every word we wrote just makes it worse [drums and bass drop out, piano and ambient guitar remain] Is there an end to the loop? Or is the loop the end? Is there a voice that can cut through the noise? Who decides? Who decides? [Instrumental outro] [piano melody fades, ambient guitar swell] We are lost in between Waiting for something to break the dream
