Lyrics: 永祺 江
Music: 永祺 江
Had I let the night consume his name
Left his words to drown in the static waves
Would morning come unburdened still
Or would the silence fracture, spill
Folded into myself, a body undone
Whiskey-tipped fingers writing on my bone
A voice in the hollow of my chest
'What is it you seek, but still cannot own?'
Oh
She is not here
She is not here
She is not here
Through the dim corridors of silence, I roam
A vestigial phantom of the truths left untold
Had I loosed the Stygian weight from my tongue
Would our love have stayed
Or turned to stone
A feather adrift in the eye of the storm of my mind
Weightless, rootless, torn apart between the sky
So how can I tell you the name of my sin
A love unbreathed
Yet already lost in past
Oh
She is not here
She is not here
She is not here
If the ocean swallowed every sin
Would you still drift beyond my skin
But before I dared to break the tide
My heart had gone
Since I crossed the line
One shadow bound to shifting light
Forever reaching
Never aligned
Two hands that trace the ghost of flame
Love dissolves before it's named
