Lyrics

[Intro - vocal: distant, breathy | instrumental: soft piano, light pad]

Ash in the air, I lose my place

Every turn, the same face

Something moves—I can’t tell

If it’s me, or something else

[Verse 1 - vocal: restrained, intimate | instrumental: piano + faint pulse]

Through the smoke, I hear you say

“Take my hand—I know the way”

I step back before it’s real

I don’t let it settle in

Every path just folds again

Every edge won’t let me in

If I follow, if I fall—

I lose the ground I stand on

[Pre-Chorus - vocal: slight lift | instrumental: rhythm tightens subtly]

You stay close, I turn away

Still your voice cuts through the grey

But I don’t move anyway

Still I don’t move

[Chorus - vocal: controlled intensity | instrumental: subtle tango rhythm + strings swell]

Help me from me—but not this way

Don’t come close, don’t make me stay

If I reach and nothing’s there

I lose the air

Help me from me—I hear you now

But I don’t know if I know how

Every time I try to breathe

It slips from me

[Verse 2 - vocal: softer, cracking | instrumental: piano clearer, light strings]

You don’t pull, you don’t insist

You stay inside the mist

Through the white, I almost see

You’re not me

Something shifts I can’t explain

Like dry stone recalling rain

If I stop and let it be

Would you hold me?

[Pre-Chorus 2 - vocal: more open | instrumental: deeper pulse, tension builds]

You don’t rush, you let me choose

Even if I turn from you

But I’m closer than before

To the door

[Chorus 2 - vocal: stronger, emotional strain | instrumental: fuller but restrained]

Help me from me—I’m getting close

I feel it more than I can hold

Every step I almost take

Turns to ache

Help me from me—don’t let me run

I’m so tired of coming undone

If you’re real, then stay right here

Don’t disappear

[Bridge - vocal: fragile, exposed | instrumental: piano + minimal strings, rhythm drops]

Say it once—just say it straight

“Take my hand, don’t hesitate”

For a moment, I don’t fight

I just try

[Final Chorus - vocal: open, surrender beginning but NOT resolved | instrumental: full but softened]

Help me from me—I’ll take your hand

Even if I don’t understand

If I fall, then let me fall

Through it all

Help me from me—I won’t resist

Still afraid—but not like this

If you’re here inside the grey

I will stay

[Outro - vocal: grounded, quiet | instrumental: piano alone]

Smoke still moves—but I can breathe

Something standing next to me

I don’t see the ending yet

And I let it be
