(Verse 1) Dim glow paints the room, a hazy kind of light Another night unfolds, bathed in shadows tight Chasin' whispers in this lonely, velvet space Heartbeat tappin' low, at its own slow pace You shift in frames, a flicker in the gloom Every touch a freeze, sealed in this tomb Like a stop motion dream, you're almost there But the gaps between, that's the weight I bear (Pre-Chorus) Yeah, each look you give, a picture in my head Holdin' onto feelings, the words left unsaid Tryna piece it all together in the dark This broken kind of beauty, leavin' its lonely mark (Chorus) Stop motion love, caught in a loop of need Every stolen breath, a dangerous seed But the rhythm's fractured, never flows as one Just a string of moments 'til the morning sun Stop motion touch, a phantom on my skin Playin' out these fantasies from deep within Frozen in the instant, then you disappear Leaving just the silence and a lingering fear (Verse 2) Your silhouette against the window pane A fragile image, etched within my brain I reach to hold you, but my fingers find the chill This fractured kind of thrill, standing oh so still We're out of time, a broken sequence plays Lost in the editing of these hazy days Each memory a frame I can't hold fast A bittersweet illusion that can never last (Pre-Chorus) Yeah, each soft sigh you make, a picture in my head Holdin' onto echoes of the words you left unsaid Tryna piece it all together in the dark This broken kind of beauty, leavin' its lonely mark (Chorus) Stop motion love, caught in a loop of need Every stolen breath, a dangerous seed But the rhythm's fractured, never flows as one Just a string of moments 'til the morning sun Stop motion touch, a phantom on my skin Playin' out these fantasies from deep within Frozen in the instant, then you disappear Leaving just the silence and a lingering fear (Bridge) Maybe if I held you closer, stopped the hands from turnin' We could break this pattern, the lesson I keep learnin' But the film is rollin' onward, the ending's always known Just these separate snapshots, forever all alone (Chorus) Stop motion love, caught in a loop of need Every stolen breath, a dangerous seed But the rhythm's fractured, never flows as one Just a string of moments 'til the morning sun Stop motion touch, a phantom on my skin Playin' out these fantasies from deep within Frozen in the instant, then you disappear Leaving just the silence and a lingering fear (Outro) Stop motion... fadin'... slow... In pieces... watch you... go... Stop motion... oh... oh...
