Midnight streets are glowing, pixels in the rain
We used to be infinite, a fever in our veins
Silent movies playing on the walls of this old town
You press rewind, but all the colors bleed out
And the echoes whisper
Dancing with shadows now
A kaleidoscope dream, but the pieces won’t align
Once upon a time
We were fireworks in slow motion
Once upon a time
Every heartbeat was an ocean
Once upon a time
Now your smile’s a neon sign, flickering behind glass
We built castles in the data stream, but nothing ever lasts
Static ghosts are singing from a dusty vinyl groove
A perfect loop… that we couldn’t make move
And the screen keeps scrolling
Memories on repeat now
A glitch in the universe, where our constellations died
Once upon a time
We were satellites with no orbit
Once upon a time
Burning brighter than the darkness
Once upon a time
Did we ever really exist
Or just stories that the city told
A hologram kiss
ONCE UPON A TIME
We were the dawn breaking through the wires
ONCE UPON A TIME
Setting the static sky on fire
