[VERSE 1]
Cm Ab
I left the world to see it whole,Eb Bb
A silent pearl in a sea of coal.Cm Ab
She spun below with aching grace,Eb Bb
A blue farewell, a lover’s face.
[PRE-CHORUS]
Ab Eb
I carry skies beneath my skin,Bb Cm
The sound of rain, the breath of kin.Ab Eb
And though I drift in colder air,Bb G
Your heartbeat still is beating there.
[CHORUS]
Cm Ab
From this red and distant land,Eb Bb
I reach for Earth with burning hands.Cm Ab
We are small, but oh, we shine—Eb Bb
A spark that dares to touch the divine.Ab Eb
Tell them I saw her, tell them she wept light.Bb Cm
Tell them we’re stars that remember the night.
[VERSE 2]
Cm Ab
I traded seas for silent stone,Eb Bb
But in this void, I’m not alone.Cm Ab
Your laughter echoes in my mind,Eb Bb
A gravity I’ll never find.
[BRIDGE] (soft, ethereal build)
Ab Eb
No wind, no birds, no morning calls—Bb Cm
Just the memory of waterfalls.Ab Eb
I wear your oceans in my eyes,Bb G
And dream of Earth in Martian skies.
[BREAKDOWN] (Spoken or whispered, ambient backdrop)
Synth pads swell, reverb-heavy piano pulsesCm Ab
Tell the children the stars were cold,Eb Bb
But I touched them. And they knew my name.Cm Ab
Tell them to rise. Tell them to dream.Eb Bb
Tell them it’s all real.
[FINAL CHORUS] (Strings build, harmonies lift)
Cm Ab
From this red and distant land,Eb Bb
I reach for Earth with trembling hands.Cm Ab
We are dust, but born to flame—Eb Bb
To look back and still proclaim:Ab Eb
I saw us, I saw us love.Bb Cm
I saw us rise through stars above.
[OUTRO]
Whispers, fading synth echoes, slow pianoCm Ab
We are small…Eb Bb
But we reach…Cm Ab
We are small…Eb Cm
But we reach… (fade out)
