00:16In the quiet glow, flickering screens we chase
00:23Shadows of laughter that fade without a trace
00:30Hands that reach through walls, cold and undefined
00:41Promises whispered, left scattered in the wind
00:47Oh, the silence broke, where the embers used to burn
00:56Hearts like empty halls, where no echoes return
01:04We built our castles high, on rivers made of sand
01:12Watch them wash away, with every passing hand
01:38Velvet nights that vanish with the morning light
01:44Eyes that once held stars, now dimmed by endless night
01:53The dance we learn by heart, forgotten step by step
02:01Leaving only echoes of the vows we never kept
02:11And the fire we carry slowly turns to smoke
02:20Drifting through the hollow, where our spirits broke
02:28No more sacred gardens, only thorns remain
02:36In the kingdom of the lost, we bear the endless rain
02:45Oh, the silence grows, where the embers used to burn
02:53Hearts like empty halls, when no echoes return
03:02We chase the fleeting gold, now beggars in the air
03:09With nothing left to hold, but the ashes of pretend
03:19Ashes of pretend
03:23Where the silence wins again
