[Intro] (soft bass, guitar arpeggio) [Verse 1] I wear the dusk like tailored skin, A silver tongue beneath my grin, I walk through rooms, I own the air, Every glance — a whispered dare. Fingers trace what they can’t define, A moving feast, a vintage wine, I pour myself in borrowed light, A perfect storm in silk and night. [Pre-Chorus] But in the quiet, after the show, There’s a place I never go… [Chorus] There’s a mirror breathing in the back of my mind, Where the shadows don’t flatter, nothing aligns, I keep dancing in gold just to stay out of reach, Of the voice in the dark I could never quite teach. I’m a king in the glare, I’m a ghost in the deep, I collect every heart — none I keep, There’s a hunger that howls where the light doesn’t go… And I don’t want to know. [Verse 2] I learned the language of velvet lies, The sacred curve of alibis, A thousand doors, I hold the keys, I bend the will with subtle ease. A touch can turn a lock to flame, A breath can rearrange a name, I make a stage of every room, And leave before the fading bloom. [Pre-Chorus] Every echo calls me back, To the edge of something black… [Chorus] There’s a mirror breathing in the back of my mind, Where the truth wears a face I refuse to define, I keep chasing the spark in a stranger’s disguise, Just to blur what is real in my own set of eyes. I’m a fire in silk, I’m a chill in the bone, Every touch only sharpens the stone, There’s a silence that screams when I’m finally alone… And I don’t want to know. [Bridge] Is it hunger or hollow? Is it truth I outrun? Am I chasing the shadow, Or becoming the one? There’s a pulse in the dark like a hand on my throat, Every word that I write is a half-sinking boat, I can dress it in beauty, make the fracture divine… But the fracture is mine. [Break] I can taste every color, I can play every part… But there’s something that trembles In the spine of my heart… [Final Chorus] There’s a mirror that breathes and it knows me too well, Every heaven I build is a doorway to hell, I keep losing myself in the curves and the glow, Just to silence the place I refuse to outgrow. I’m a lion in light, I’m a void in disguise, With a thousand reflections — none of them mine, There’s a darkness that waits every time I let go… [Outro] (soft guitar, fading bass) It already knows… It already knows.
