This song is the fourth and last song of a short story by my amazing friend Angie and me. We thought that our first collaboration should be some sort of conclusion to the story being told in previous songs of ours.

But we've finally finished our collab and I'm so happy to share it with all you wonderful people! Check out Angie's profile in the caption above 👆 or here: https://suno.com/@angieangi === I heard your call rip through the quiet in my chest I swore I'd stay, I'm running now, promise kept But that wall goes on forever Wish we could climb it together I see no crack, no gate, no sky Swore I'd climb it I didn't lie I said I'd be there, never let you fall alone So I rise with bleeding hands Carving prints in your stone You It was always you Only you Please tell me... How can you stop mid-climb on a wall with no peak? Half of infinity’s still impossible to reach But I swore I'd pick you up when you'd break So I keep climbing through the ache I'm really trying... Not willing to give up today But my fingers fail, my grip gives way Your wall's too tall My body falls No longer have strength left... ...Promises unkept You It was always you Only you I kept asking the dark where you are While fighting my ghosts in the quiet alone I waited behind these walls till my silence screamed It was my heartbeat, my shelter, my skin They taught me how not to break, how not to let in watched you climbing till your hands gave out Your shadow slipping as the night got loud I kept you out, called it staying alive But when the dark closed around me I broke my walls before you disappeared I needed to see you standing here don’t know the way through what’s left in my head So take my hand — and lead me instead You It was always you Only you Don’t vanish now I’m finally seen don’t turn to smoke don’t slip between I opened doors I never knew and all that light looked just like you You It was always you Only you You weren’t supposed to reach me you weren’t supposed to stay but something in your silence made my shadows move away And if you walk too far from here I think something in me might disappear
