Solana’s Walk Between Worlds (R'n'B)
[ Introduction] Rome, past midnight. Rain taps at the shutters of a small apartment near the Tiber. Solana lies beside Jane, but her dreams slide sideways—half-remembered, half-prophecy. First, the heat of Cartagena, where she once saw Geoffrey bound. But then the scene shifts. She stands at docks she has never walked, a wide gray river before her — Buenos Aires, Argentina. And there, by the Río de la Plata, Geoffrey’s shadow waits. Behind him rise two visions stitched into the dream: Misiones, where the Jesuit missions fell in ruins. Eleusis, where ancient initiates carved prayers into stone. When she wakes, Rome’s rain still falls. But the dream has not let go. [Verse 1 – The Dream Opens] Midnight Rome, rain on the glass, But I walk a city I’ve never passed. Cartagena’s heat, then a sudden shift, Buenos Aires calls through a shadowed rift. Lamplight bleeds, the alleys sway, A broken tango, ghosts at play. And there—Geoffrey’s eyes, a fire unstill, Dragging me back to the war in my will. [Chorus – Waking Beside Jane] I turn to your breath, steady and slow, Jane, your warmth is the only I know. But even pressed against your skin, Another world keeps pulling me in. [Verse 2 – The Encounter] His coat is ash, his hands are torn, He wears the grief of a crown long gone. “Solana,” he mouths, though no sound remains, The streets collapse into walls of flames. I see Misiones, stones that weep, Eleusis prayers carved dark and deep. I reach for him—but he falls away, A ghost of smoke before the day. [Chorus – Waking Beside Jane] I turn to your breath, steady and slow, Jane, your warmth is the only I know. But even pressed against your skin, Another world keeps pulling me in. [Bridge – The Fracture] Between the sheets and the dream, I bleed, Half still captive, half in need. Two voices twist, one harsh, one kind: “Hold her hand… or lose your mind.” [Final Chorus – The Impossible Choice] I kiss your hair, I close my eyes, But Geoffrey’s shadow refuses to die. Between your touch and the ghost I recall, I walk between worlds— I walk them all. [Outro – Whispered] Rome in the rain, Buenos Aires flame. One hand holds me here, One calls my name.
