-Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
She says it helps with the lights out
Her rabid glow is like braille to the night
She swears I'm a slave to the details
But if your life is such a big joke, why should I care?

[Chorus 1]
The clock is set for nine but you know you're gonna make it eight
So that you two can take some time, teach each other to reciprocate

[Verse 2]
She feels that my sentimental side should be held with kids' gloves
But she doesn't know that I left my urge in the icebox
She swears I'm just prey for the female
Well then hook me up and throw me, baby cakes, 'cause I like to get hooked

[Chorus 2]
The clock is set for nine but you know you're gonna make it eight
All the people that you've loved, they're all bound to leave some keepsakes
I've been swinging all the time, think it's time I learned your way
I picture you and me together in the jungle, it would be okay

[Bridge]
I'll bring you when my lifeboat sails through the night
That is supposing that you don't sleep tonight

[Verse 3]
It's like learning a new language
Helps me catch up on my mime
If you don't bring up those lonely parts
This could be a good time
It's like learning a new language

You come here to me
We'll collect those lonely parts and set them down
You come here to me

[Outro]
She says brief things, her love's a pony
My love's subliminal
She says brief things, her love's a pony
My love's subliminal

She says brief things, her love is brief
My love's subliminal

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1] 
Flickers of you haunt these shattered halls
Cold light through blinds, I’m drowning in the fall
Whispered secrets echo where we once lay
Now shadows choke the words I couldn’t say

[Pre‑Chorus] 
Rou, I’m tethered to the ghost of what we were
Fractured hopes in every silent blur

[Chorus] 
This cruel game stole the warmth right from my veins
Rou, your name’s a blade I chase through endless rain
I’m broken on the edge of wanting you again
Lost in the ache, I’m bleeding for Rou

[Verse 2] 
Night air tastes of all the things we lost
Your absence like a knife, it cuts across
I trace your name in frost upon my skin
Each letter burns a wound I’ll never mend

[Pre‑Chorus] 
Rou, your echo’s all that stirs my hollow heart
I’m falling into pieces torn apart

[Chorus] 
This cruel game stole the warmth right from my veins
Rou, your name’s a blade I chase through endless rain
I slip beneath the weight of all I can’t contain
Drowning in the ache, I’m bleeding for Rou

[Bridge] 
Walls close in on truths we left unsaid
If tears could ransom, I’d pay with every breath
Rou, I’d walk through fire just to feel you near
But fear remains the final voice I hear

[Final Chorus]
This cruel game stole the warmth right from my veins
Rou… your name’s the echo in my hollow frame
And I’ll wait in darkness, hoping you remain
The ghost I’m still bleeding for — Rou.

Light

Cruel Game

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
In twilight’s grip, I drift through fading memories,  
A lone hope flickers as night claims its due.  
Each step along shadowed streets murmurs lost confessions,  
Where silence reveals truths emerging anew.

[Pre‑Chorus]
The city pulses deep—a cold, relentless beat,  
Dark echoes assure that decay can kindle retreat.

[Chorus]
It's Gneiss, lead me through this endless night,  
Where shattered dreams blend with fading light.  
When I’m lost in my own design,  
I grasp at echoes to steady what's mine—  
Though I sink into the void, alone,  
Your spectral pulse guides me back home.

[Verse 2] 
Beneath a waning moon, vacant eyes recall  
Deep-seated fears stripped bare against the fall.  
In the solitude of midnight’s somber hymn,  
Each trial unveils strength carved from within.

[Pre‑Chorus]
In quiet shadows, the urban pulse resounds,  
Revealing strength in cracks where hope is found.

[Bridge]
As night bears down on a weary heart,  
Faded scars ignite a slow restart.  
Through storms, a hidden courage begins,  
Where darkness breaks, a new journey spins.

[Chorus Reprise]
Gneiss, burn through this ceaseless void,  
Where hope and shadow merge—unalloyed.  
Even when darkness seeks to tear me apart,  
I hold fast to echoes deep within my heart—  
In every descent, your spectral tone  
Reminds me I’m never truly alone.

[Outro]
At dawn’s edge, I rise from the night,  
Bearing scars that spark salvaged light.  
In every lingering shadow, your echo is true—  
The path through darkness is found, step by step, with you.

Never Truly Alone

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1]  
I walk through streets where silence screams,  
A twisted hush of broken dreams.  
The flicker lights, they burn and fade—  
A city drowning in its shade.  

[Verse 2]  
The sky is cracked like fragile glass,  
A haunted echo from the past.  
Footsteps vanish into air—  
I chase a ghost that isn’t there.  

[Chorus]  
Oh, the shadows collapse and bend,  
Twist me 'til there's no amend.  
A roaring void eats up the truth—  
I feel the chill of a wasted youth.  

[Bridge]  
Ashes whisper through the night,  
Whisper lies, then take to flight.  
Winds are howling, cruel and cold,  
Spinning secrets left untold.  

[Verse 3]  
We build our towers out of stone,  
But every wall comes crashing down.  
The static hum fills every space—  
It masks the tears upon my face.  

[Chorus]  
Oh, the shadows collapse and bend,  
Twist me 'til there's no amend.  
A roaring void eats up the truth—  
I feel the chill of a wasted youth.

Shadows Collapse

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]  
The neon hums, but no one listens.  
Footsteps echo down the empty street.  
A cigarette burns in slow precision—  
Flickers out, just like last week.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Every window hides a story.  
Every shadow speaks in tongues.  

[Chorus]  
But I keep walking, I keep fading,  
Through the static of the night.  
I hear your voice, but it's just memory—  
Another ghost in flashing light.  

[Verse 2]  
Strangers pass with hollow faces,  
Eyes reflect the city’s glow.  
Somewhere deep, the trains keep running,  
Parallel to what we know.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Every window hides a story.  
Every shadow speaks in tongues.  

[Chorus]  
But I keep walking, I keep fading,  
Through the static of the night.  
I hear your voice, but it's just memory—  
Another ghost in flashing light.  

[Bridge]  
I saw your name carved in pavement,  
Washed away in last night’s rain.  
The skyline flickers like a warning,  
But I don’t care to read the signs.  

[Outro]  
I keep walking... I keep fading...  
Just a whisper through the wires.

Keep Walking

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1] 
In the quiet of twilight, I wander through memories,
Glimmers of hope dance softly as the night sets me free.
Every step on this winding road whispers secrets untold,
Searching for truth in silence, where stories of light unfold.

[Pre-Chorus] 
I feel the pulse of the night—a heartbeat steady and true,
Each shadow teaches me that darkness can birth something new.

[Chorus] 
Light, guide me through this endless night,
Where dreams and fragile hopes ignite.
Even when I’m lost in my own unknown,
I cling to the strength I’ve always known—
Though I sometimes fade away into darkness alone,
Your gentle radiance brings me back home.

[Verse 2] 
Underneath a silver moon, reflections shimmer in my eyes,
I confront my deepest fears, embracing truth without disguise.
In the quiet solitude of night, I learn to face my plight,
For in each trial I discover that the only way out is through concept, right.

[Pre-Chorus] 
In the stillness, my soul confides its silent decree,
That every challenge builds the strength to set my spirit free.

[Bridge] 
When the weight of the world grows heavy on my heart,
I remember that to heal, I must play my part.
Every storm I brave reveals the courage within,
For light emerges when I let the journey begin.

[Chorus] (Reprise)
Light, shine through this deep midnight blue,
Illuminate the path, make every dream come true.
Even when darkness tries to pull me apart,
I hold on to the wisdom deep within my heart—
Though I may sometimes fade away into darkness alone,
Your steadfast glow reminds me I’m never on my own.

[Outro] 
As the morning breaks, I rise renewed and bright,
Carrying lessons learned through the long, silent night.
In every shadow, your love cuts right through,
For the only way out is through concept—and through you.


-Description:

"Light" is a poignant exploration of resilience and self-discovery, unfolding with a delicate balance of melancholy and quiet hope. Set in B minor at 125 BPM. 

The opening verse sets the tone—“In the quiet of twilight, I wander through memories”—inviting the listener into a reflective solitude where flickers of hope dance against the backdrop of uncertainty. The instrumentation mirrors this journey, with soft melodies wrapping around hushed vocals, evoking a sense of yearning for clarity amidst the unknown.

As the pre-chorus emerges, the track gains momentum, embracing the duality of light and darkness: “I feel the pulse of the night—a heartbeat steady and true, / Each shadow teaches me that darkness can birth something new.

The chorus becomes the emotional centerpiece, an affirmation of perseverance. “Light, guide me through this endless night, / Where dreams and fragile hopes ignite.” The vocals rise with conviction, wrapped in swelling instrumentation that feels both intimate and expansive. The rhythmic sway carries a sense of catharsis, as if the music itself is lighting the path forward, gently but insistently pushing toward revelation.

The bridge offers a moment of soulful introspection—“When the weight of the world grows heavy on my heart, / I remember that to heal, I must play my part.” Stripped-down instrumentation allows the words to breathe, creating space for the vulnerability they hold. The moment is fleeting, yet vital—a brief pause before the final chorus lifts the listener back into the warmth of resolve.

In its outro, “Light” embraces its central message—“As the morning breaks, I rise renewed and bright.” This closing sentiment is more than lyrical—it’s a sonic awakening, an embodiment of indie music’s ability to turn quiet self-reflection into universal resonance.


"Light" thrives within the Indie genre, channeling its introspective songwriting and organic production into a track that feels deeply personal yet profoundly relatable. It’s a song that doesn’t just narrate the journey—it becomes the guiding glow.

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1]  
My world was once a silent shade of blue,
The sky above stood honest—lines all true.  
You sprang to life, like ivy on cold stone;  
Now emerald vines grow in fields I roam.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
As I keep walking, I keep eroding,  
Through the static of the night,  
I hear your voice—but it’s just memory,  
A flicker buried out of sight.  

[Chorus]  
My favorite color's color is now a verdigris green—
It drips from whispered leaves and stains the unseen.  
You wore it soft, like dawn behind the rain—  
Now it clings to me like barnacles to pain.  
I bear your sorrow in fractured dreams;  
I walk on, still beating.  

[Verse 2]  
In mist-hung meadows, I tread all alone.  
Green shadows flicker where we carved our home.  
My hands once traced the heavens in azure hue,  
But every stroke now curls back to you.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
And I keep walking, I keep eroding, 
Through the static of the night,  
I hear your laugh—but it’s just memory,  
A pale star lost to fading light.  

[Chorus]  
My favorite color’s color is now a verdigris green—
Its bloom persists where silence reigned supreme.  
I trace your pulse through every trembling leaf—  
Each one a wound that time cannot relieve.  
I bear your sorrow in fractured dreams;  
I walk on, still beating.  

[Bridge]  
I, a broken silhouette, remain.  
Scars of sapphire, now torn by emerald rain.  
Yet in the hush, faint echoes interweave;  
Your soul still rides the autumn breeze.  

[Final Chorus]  
My favorite color’s color is now a haunted green— 
Fused with my sapphire past into teal.  
It binds our fractured echoes in between—  
A wounded heart that only time can heal.  
I bear your sorrow in fractured dreams;  
I walk on, heart still beating...

The Color That Remains

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I painted our walls in fields of emerald light.  
Every stroke is a promise that we’d never die.  
Now the brush sits empty in my trembling hand,  
and colors bleed together where I try to stand.

[Pre‑Chorus]
Your laughter filled these halls with springtime air;  
now silence blooms in every corner, everywhere.

[Chorus]
My favorite color is green, ‘cause that was always you.  
A forest in your eyes—I’m lost inside the truth.  
I drown in every shade of what I cannot hold;  
my favorite color is green, now it’s all gone cold.

[Verse 2]  
Leaves fall like memories along this lonely street.  
I trace your footprints in the damp beneath my feet.  
Guitar strings hum your name in minor harmonies,  
and they ring like distant echoes of what could be.

[Pre‑Chorus]
Rou, I reach for something only ghosts can give.  
A hue haunts me more than teaching me to live.

[Chorus]
My favorite color is green, ‘cause that was always you.  
A forest in your eyes—I’m lost inside the truth.  
I drown in every shade of what I cannot hold;  
my favorite color is green, now it’s all gone cold.

[Bridge]
But I keep walking, I keep fading  
through the static of the night.  
I hear your voice, but it’s just memory—  
another ghost in flashing light.

[Final Chorus] 
My favorite color is green—every leaf reminds me,  
they ring like distant echoes of what we could be.  
Guitar strings hum your name in minor harmonies;  
my favorite color is green—your color, it's now on me.

Your Color

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1]  
I carved your whispers into stone,  
traced every fault you sold me on.  
You lit the fuse and watched me burn;  
now I bleed truths you'll never learn.

[Pre-Chorus]  
I chased your ghosts down every street,  
but some machines refuse to sleep.  
So let me fall where I belong—  
a silhouette in your closed song.

[Chorus]  
I’ll be the villain in your frame;  
let me wear the fire, bear the blame.  
You can paint me black, rewrite the lines—  
I don’t need your mercy this time.  
I’ll be the villain; I’ll take the fall.  
When I disappear, don’t wait for my call.  
Some truths don’t need a crown;  
I’ll wear this crooked gown.

[Verse 2]  
You stacked your verdict in the air,  
built a courthouse on thin air.  
You called me liar, prayed I’d fight,  
but I let go—you keep your light.

[Pre-Chorus]  
No more reflections in your glass;  
no more cage behind the mask.  
I’ll drift away where stories end;  
your broken hearts won’t drag me in.

[Chorus]  
I’ll be the villain in your frame;  
let me wear the fire, bear the blame.  
You can paint me black, rewrite the lines—  
I don’t need your mercy this time.  
I’ll be the villain; I’ll take the fall.  
When I disappear, don’t wait for my call.  
Some truths don’t need a crown;  
I’ll wear this crooked gown.

[Bridge]  
Don’t plead for reasons I won’t give,  
don’t pray I stay to make you live.  
Some scars become their own refrain;  
I’ll haunt your mind—unchained, unnamed.

[Chorus (×2)]  
I’ll be the villain in your frame;  
let me wear the fire, bear the blame.  
You can paint me black, rewrite the lines—  
I don’t need your mercy this time.  
I’ll be the villain; I’ll take the fall.  
When I disappear, don’t wait for my call.  
Some truths don’t need a crown;  
I’ll wear this crooked gown.

[Outro]  
Fade me out in your memory—a cautionary melody.  
Let me be the worst you've known;  
I’m finally free to walk alone.  
Fade me out from you, Rou;  
I'll never be with you.  
Fade me out from you—  
I'm never coming back to you.

Villain in Your Frame

-Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
You were the light in a house made of rain,
A warmth I held with hands of pain.
I built this place with ash and gold,
A home for you when nights grew cold.

[Pre‑Chorus]
But lights don’t stay where shadows cling,
And everything in love can die while wearing rings.

[Chorus]
Now this Sanctuary holds your glow,
But you’re not here—and I won’t go.
I speak your name through hollow halls,
Where every whisper breaks and falls.

[Verse 2]
You slipped like fire through careful hands,
A fading note in ruined plans.
I lit each room with what we were,
But stars don’t wait for those who stir.

[Pre‑Chorus]
I kept your light when you grew dim,
And watched the dusk crawl back within.

[Chorus]
Now this Sanctuary holds (your glow)
But you’re not here—and I won’t go.
I speak your name through hollow halls,
Where every whisper breaks and falls.

[Bridge]
I wasn’t made to hold the sun—
But I still burn and now you're gone

[Final Chorus]
Now this Sanctuary keeps my ghost,
A fading echo of the love you lost.
You were the light—I held you tight…
But even stars can die at night.

[Outro]
This place remembers what I lost,
A light long gone… a sanctuary,
Which keeps my ghost.
