Lyrics

Stay
Don’t speak
Let the night decide
Stay
Right here
While the lights divide

There was a weight beneath the air that I could never name
A slow collision of desire and distance dressed as faith
The room was full of borrowed light and half-forgotten faces
Then you moved through it like a warning no one else could trace
No sudden rush
No easy fire
Just something cold enough to last
Something low and undeniable
Moving underneath the glass

I felt it first in the silence
In the space between your breath
Like a thought you never offered
Still refusing to be left
No innocence
No grand design
No need to turn it into grace
Just the kind of pull that finds you
And rearranges time and place

So let the shadows close around us
Let the signal disappear
If there’s only this between us
Then let it sharpen, let it clear
No one needs to understand it
No one else was ever there
There is something in the dark now
And it’s more than we can bear

Take me higher than the sky
Where the quiet comes alive
Where the edge of us remains
After pleasure, after pain
Hold me in the afterglow
Where the deeper currents flow
If we break, we break in light
Higher than the sky tonight

Higher
Into the afterglow
Higher
Where the deeper currents flow

I have seen what happens to the beautiful when morning comes
How it fades into a language no one ever truly wants
But this was not a passing thing
Not vanity, not smoke
It had the stillness of a secret
And the gravity of truth
Not salvation
Not surrender
Not the fever of the young
Just a deeper kind of staying
When the world comes undone

We were never made for easy forms
Or ordinary vows
Only for the pulse beneath the surface
Only for the pulse beneath the surface
Only for the now
The way the body learns a silence
The way the silence learns a name
The way two shadows hold each other
Without asking who to blame
No illusion
No escape
No promise we can keep untouched
Only this electric distance
Only this becoming under us

When the last room empties out
When the final glass is still
When the city folds beneath us
And the dark becomes a will
I will find you in the low light
In the space the noise leaves behind
Not as rescue
Not as mercy
But as something close to mine

When the pulse becomes a language
When the night undoes the frame
I will meet you where the silence
Has no use for guilt or names
There is no need to call it holy
No need to make it pure
Some things live because they haunt you
Some things stay because they’re sure

So if the lights begin to fracture
If the hour turns against us
If the world returns in pieces
Let it come
It never kept us
We were made for this suspension
For this beautiful divide
For the moment nothing holds us
But the dark on either side

Stay with me now
No words, no sound
Stay with me now
While the lights burn out
Higher
Higher than the sky tonight

Take me higher than the sky
Where the quiet comes alive
Where the edge of us remains
After pleasure, after pain
Hold me in the afterglow
Where the deeper currents flow
If we break, we break in light
Higher than the sky tonight

Higher
Where the quiet comes alive
Higher
In the afterglow tonight
Higher than the sky tonight

Stay
Don’t speak
Let the night decide
Stay
Right here
While the
