[Verse 1]
Moonlight spills like liquid glass
Across the lake that never moves
Whispers braid themselves in moss
No one remembers how to lose
The trees forgot their names tonight
Their branches trace the air in runes
I walk on water made of light
It holds my shadow like a bruise
[Pre-Chorus]
Everything is almost gone
Almost here
Almost dawn
[Chorus]
Stay inside the hush with me
Where the silence learns to breathe
Nothing hunts us anymore
We dissolved outside the door
In the calm that has no end
Even sorrow makes amends
Let the world forget our names
We were never in its frames
[Verse 2]
Crystal moths drink from the dark
Their wings are stained with silver sleep
A castle sinks beneath the stars
Its towers bloom like lilies deep
I taste the night upon your skin
It lingers sweet and anodyne
Time unravels, thread by thread
And stitches nothing back in line
[Bridge]
Close your eyes
The forest is only dreaming
Close your eyes
The ghosts are only leaving
Close your eyes
There never was a w*r
[Final Chorus]
Stay inside the hush forever
Even when the hush grows cold
We’ll be frost upon the heather
We’ll be stories never told
In the calm that has no edge
We will vanish pledge by pledge
Let the world keep all its names
We were never in its flames
[Outro]
Still…
Still…
Still water…
Still…
