Echos in the Night

<Juno's hair is her indicator of whether she will frenzy or keep her sanity intact - white is alright, orange is RUN!> [Verse 1] In the quiet of the dark, she whispers to the air, Tiny chirps, they guide her, lead her everywhere. With her eyes closed tight, she feels the world outside, A shadow in the moonlight, with nowhere to hide. [Verse 2] Once a stone she swallowed deep, a weight she couldn’t know, Bound to stay the same, though the winds of time still blow. Evolution's promise, it’s forever out of reach, Yet she fights against the hunger that burns beneath her feet. [Chorus] The color in her hair, it’s a warning, it’s a sign, Fading with her hunger, as the day tics down nigh. With every breath, her fire grows, orange like the dawn, But time is slipping through her hands, the countdown carries on. [Verse 3] Every step she takes is careful, every sound a guide, But the hunger in her chest is something she can’t hide. She longs to change, to shed her skin, but fate has locked the door, The Everstone within her heart, a weight she can’t ignore. [Verse 4] Still she stands against the dusk, her spirit never breaks, Though her body grows more weary with each step that she takes. In the silence, she still echoes, her heartbeat strong and true, For even in the hunger's grasp, Juno pulls through. [Chorus] The color in her hair, it’s a warning, it’s a sign, Fading with her hunger, as the day tics down nigh. With every breath, her fire grows, orange like the dawn, But time is slipping through her hands, the countdown carries on. [Bridge] She walks the line between the stars, Chasing echoes, chasing scars. With every sound, she knows her way, But hunger's pull won't let her stay. [Outro] Echoes in the night, her song fades with the day, But her flame still burns bright, even when it turns to gray. In the silence, in the still, she fights to carry on, For though the clock is ticking, her spirit’s never gone.
