[Verse 1]
In moonlit halls where shadows trace your name,
I wander lost in echoes of our flame.
Your phantom smile adorns each silent wall—
A distant grace I never knew at all.

[Pre-Chorus]
If time could bend its fractured spine,
I’d steal your breath to make you mine.

[Chorus]
I wish I met you sooner—before the stars betrayed,
Before the world grew colder and our colors all did fade.
I’d hold your heart in trembling hands and tame the blackest night,
But fate arrived too late for love to claim its right.

[Verse 2]
Your whispered ghosts haunt corridors of glass;
Each mirrored step reminds me of the past.
A fragile rose that withered in my care—
Its bloom unrealized, perfumed despair.

[Pre-Chorus – Variation]
If destiny could rewrite its page,
I’d serenade your soul from gilded cage.

[Chorus]
I wish I met you sooner—before the stars betrayed,
Before the world grew colder and our colors all did fade.
I’d hold your heart in trembling hands and tame the blackest night,
But fate arrived too late for love to claim its right.

[Bridge – Instrumental]


[Chorus – Variation]
I wish I met you sooner—beneath a softer sky,
Before the world had taught us both to bleed and say goodbye.
I’d carve our names in candle smoke and kiss your shadow’s seam,
Then vanish where the silence goes, still loving you in dreams.

[Coda]
Between the dusk and dawn I wait,
A shadow bending into fate.
Your absence hums, a fragile tune—
Perhaps the stars will shift too soon.

[Outro]
Night folds around the words unsaid;
I keep your memory—unborn, undead.

“Perhaps the Stars Will Shift” is a progressive symphonic metal odyssey—an elegy carved in moonlight.

Gothic vocals echo through corridors of glass, while guitar, violin, and piano weave a dark cinematic requiem.

Every verse bleeds with longing, every chorus wrestles fate itself.

The journey closes in an orchestral epic outro where the guitar unfurls a melancholic solo, standing against the vast weight of strings, brass, and choirs.

A lament painted in fire and shadow, this is not just music—it’s destiny refusing silence.

———

At its heart, this work is inspired by my true and only love, Shahy—the eternal flame behind every note, the unseen constellation guiding this elegy of stars and silence. ♡
