“In the quiet hum between the notes, I hear your ghost…”
The needle drops, a gentle hiss becomes our tune,
Shadows flicker on my walls beneath a silver moon.
Your voice is filtered through a haze of time’s embrace,
And every word you whispered lingers in this space.
I lean into the noise, hoping you’ll appear,
But velvet static holds you distant, crystal clear.
You’re my velvet static on a lonely night,
Soft distortion wrapping every broken light.
In the spaces where the signal falls apart,
I’m tracing echoes of your fading heart.
Old photographs drift drifting in a dusty frame,
Each memory’s a waveform calling out your name.
I chase the undertow of songs we used to know,
But all I feel is vinyl tears in steady flow.
I close my eyes and play our symphony again,
Yet velvet static hides the words you’d never send.
You’re my velvet static on a lonely night,
Soft distortion wrapping every broken light.
In the spaces where the signal falls apart,
I’m tracing echoes of your fading heart.
(Instrumental break with filtered guitar + distant synth)
When silence reigns, the hum becomes my lullaby,
I drift between the noise and dreams you can’t deny.
You’re my velvet static on a lonely night,
Soft distortion wrapping every broken light.
In the spaces where the signal falls apart,
I’m tracing echoes of your fading heart.
“Even static carries the ghost of you…”
