“Drifting in Space” is an ambient pop journey through loneliness, connection, and the quiet ache of being unseen. With dreamy synth textures, spacious rhythms, and haunting vocals, it paints the image of a soul floating through the cosmos — surrounded by life, yet untouched. Both cosmic and intimate, the song blends dream pop and electronic atmospheres, creating a soundtrack for anyone who’s ever felt adrift in their own world.

Drifting in Space

(FR) 🕰 Une chanson sur le regret sans jamais sombrer.
🇬🇧 Lyrics (English translation) at the end of the description⏬

Une voix presque nue, portée par une ligne mélodique minimaliste et un rythme haletant — comme une course folle contre le temps et soi-même.
Les mots sont froids, les silences lourds… chaque battement semble être l’écho d’un choix non fait. Et pourtant, quelque part, une voix murmure qu’un lien, peut-être, résiste.


(EN)🕰 A song about regret, without ever giving in.
A nearly naked voice, carried by a minimal melodic line and a breathless rhythm — like a mad race against time and oneself.
Cold words, heavy silences… each beat echoes an unmade choice. And yet, somewhere, a voice whispers that a bond, perhaps, still holds.

Always and Never 

We loved each other in unspoken words,
Our shadows dancing behind us.
Children witnessing our detours,
Friends wondering why.

Always and never —
We loved too much or not enough.
Always and never —
A love that fades, yet stays forever.

Wrinkled photos,
Words left behind,
Fragments of a heart.
We remake the world without colors.

And if I saw you again,
What would I say this time…?

Always and never —
We loved too much or not enough.
Always and never —
A love that fades, yet stays forever.

Our memories scatter
On a gentle breeze
Heavy with silent sobs.
Regrets whisper through the whirlwinds.

I wish I could have changed so much.
Time runs, fixing nothing.
Bridges burn beneath our steps,
Our paths no longer cross.

Always and never —
We loved too much or not enough.
Always and never —
A love that fades, yet stays forever.

A cold coffee on the bare table,
A folded letter,
Words gone astray.
Silence screams… and I hear it.

I see your smile again each night,
Those tender moments chasing me.

The words we shared — a simple shiver —
Now echo like a prison.

empty road, i’m facing north
engine cold, i’m off the shoulder
pack my things, and then I go
waving down the distant lifetimes
flashing in the headlights
it feels like i’m finally fading away
i’ve broken so much
i’ve broken so much

your heart’s in trouble
(i don’t know if we’ll make it)
when you stumble
(i don’t know if we’ll make it in time)
you felt it crumble
(i don’t know if we’ll make it)
you weren’t too careful
now you can’t find solid ground

i hitch a ride
on solace i hope is real
but i never feel it
a motel bed
shared with my dissonance
i blame it on a familiar stranger
i’m clutching at the remainder
it feels like my mechanism is failing
i’ve broken so much
i’ve broken so much

(chorus)
