Feathers on the Water

V6-MINI

[Intro] Black feathers over red moon water A quiet name travels through the pines [Verse 1] You wore the village like a borrowed face Kept every wound in a hidden place At fifteen, they handed you the night You chose the blade so they could wake to light Brother, I saw the truth too late Your silence stood outside my gate Two fingers pressed against my brow You left me love I understand now [Pre-Chorus] Every crow knows what the living hide Every tear learned how to turn aside [Chorus] Itachi, Itachi, burning behind those eyes A ghost in the red mist, carrying alibis You made yourself the villain, let the whole world despise So one small heart could live beneath unbroken skies Itachi, Itachi, no halo, no goodbye Just feathers on the water and a moon that will not cry [Verse 2] The room went still when your black cloak moved A thousand rumors, none of them proved You spoke in riddles, coughed through the rain And wore your ending like a second name Amaterasu, dark fire in the snow A truth too sharp for the boy to know You held the storm behind your teeth Then gave your strength to the one beneath [Pre-Chorus] Every crow knows what the living hide Every tear learned how to turn aside [Chorus] Itachi, Itachi, burning behind those eyes A ghost in the red mist, carrying alibis You made yourself the villain, let the whole world despise So one small heart could live beneath unbroken skies Itachi, Itachi, no halo, no goodbye Just feathers on the water and a moon that will not cry [Bridge] If mercy has a mask, yours wore a midnight hue If love can look like leaving, then it looked like you The truth came late, but it came with your hand Two fingers, one forehead, and I finally understand [Final Chorus] Itachi, Itachi, burning behind those eyes A ghost in the red mist, carrying alibis You made yourself the villain, let the whole world despise So one small heart could live beneath unbroken skies Itachi, Itachi, when the last red feather flies I’ll carry what you buried underneath those silent skies [Outro] Black feathers settle The forest holds its breath Your name stays cool in the dark
