A song about finding peace where the sea meets the sky.
It drifts between longing and calm, carrying the weight of what’s left behind and the hope of what might come.

Built on airy melodies and oceanic textures, it captures the stillness of lying on warm sand while the horizon swallows every thought. The clouds, the stars, the sea. All part of the same canvas, painted in shades of blue.

For moments when the mind feels adrift, yet anchored by something vast and beautiful.

Island of Stars

[Intro]
You're so calm when you're unraveling, dear,
You're a dream when you're not listening, dear—
I'm fading.

[Verse 1]
You're the only one who swears there's nothing
Left to feel in this connection—
That's your grand confession.
You're a last kiss, a static echo,
The applause after affection—
It defines you, too.

[Verse 1 – Shift]
You can't pretend while I'm away
That you won't play back every day
The ways we lost control.
But don't reach out—I'm
Residing in a silence
That won't take your name anymore.

[Pre-Chorus]
Something to post,
Something to prove,
Nothing feels close
When there's nothing to lose.

[Chorus]
Sleep tight, streetlight—
We've got two hundred eyes that saw us last night.
Sleep tight, streetlight—
Your lips were saying love, but your eyes said goodbye.
Sleep tight, spotlight—
Pretend it's right, pretend it's right,
Pretend tonight.

[Verse 2]
You're the only version of my fiction
That I almost believed—through
All the staged conviction.
You're a past fever, last teaser—
I'm scrubbing off the preview
Of how we once aligned.

[Bridge]
Don't try to find me—
I'm parked between regret and reinvention.
That kiss on 4th and Vine—
It played like cinema,
But it meant decline.

[Final Chorus – Reprise]
Sleep tight, streetlight—
We've got two hundred eyes that saw us last night.
Sleep tight, streetlight—
Your lips were saying love, but your eyes said goodbye.
Sleep tight, spotlight—
Pretend it's right, pretend it's right,
Pretend tonight.
Tonight.

"Public Display of Affection" is a slow unraveling of love’s theater, where every glance, every kiss, is staged for an audience that doesn’t see the cracks. Beneath the city’s neon haze and under the judgment of a hundred passing eyes, the song exposes how connection can be both intimate and performative—an art form of holding together what’s already falling apart. Through brooding baritone delivery, shimmering guitars, and shadows of synth, it becomes a cinematic confession of the quiet lies we tell in public to protect what’s already broken in private.
