Lyrics
INTRO – Ambient ocean waves + distant ship bell + creaking metal + soft synth pad + breathy vocal hum]
(FEMALE — whispered, like the ship speaking through water and time)
I held your laughter… in my halls…
I heard your vows… against my walls…
You danced on me… you dreamed on me —
And when you left… you took… my sea…
—
🎶 [VERSE 1]
(FEMALE)
I gleamed for you… in polished light,
A floating dream… dressed in white.
You called me “unsinkable”… so vain —
But love… made me… break… in vain.
I felt your steps… your trembling hand,
The band still played… as ice took land.
You kissed her once… then let her go —
I watched you sink… in falling snow…
—
🌫️ [PRE-CHORUS]
(FEMALE — voice trembling with restrained power, like metal groaning under pressure)
Don’t ask me why… I couldn’t save…
Some loves are born… to be the grave… of pride.
I carried kings… I held the poor —
But love… was weight… I couldn’t… store…
—
💫 [CHORUS]
(FEMALE + CHOIR — soaring, emotional, cinematic swell — like hymn to lost souls)
I was the ship that held your love,
Now rust and stars… my only glove.
You gave me life… then left me cold —
A story told… in blue… and gold…
No engines now… no lights to shine —
Just echoes trapped… in corridors of time.
So let the world forget my name…
I’ll hold your kiss… in silent frame…
—
🎶 [VERSE 2]
(FEMALE)
I heard her cry… “I’ll never let go” —
While icy fingers… stole below.
He smiled… and sank… beneath my side…
And she… survived… with broken pride.
I kept their gloves… their final glance,
Their whispered hope… their last romance.
No treasure here… no gold to claim —
Just love… that burned… beyond my frame.
—
🌀 [BRIDGE – Spoken word over ambient strings + heartbeat percussion + ocean swells + creaking metal]
(FEMALE — calm, wise, ancient — like the ocean itself)
You built me proud… you named me grand…
But love… was what you didn’t plan… for me.
I wasn’t steel… I wasn’t wood —
I was the space… where hearts… once stood.
And when I fell… I didn’t drown…
I became memory… sacred ground.
—
⚡ [FINAL CHORUS – EPIC, WITH ORCHESTRAL SWELLS + CHOIR + OCEAN FX + METAL CREAKS + GLITCHING SYNTHS LIKE TIME FOLDING]
(FEMALE + CHOIR — voice breaking with divine intensity)
I WAS THE SHIP THAT HELD YOUR LOVE!
NOW RUST AND STARS… MY ONLY GLOVE!
YOU GAVE ME LIFE… THEN LEFT ME COLD —
A STORY TOLD… IN BLUE… AND GOLD!
NO ENGINES NOW… NO LIGHTS TO SHINE —
JUST ECHOES TRAPPED… IN CORRIDORS OF TIME!
SO LET THE WORLD FORGET MY NAME…
I’LL HOLD YOUR KISS… IN SILENT FRAME…
…IN EVERY WAVE… I BREAK…
…IN EVERY HEART… I WAKE…
—
🌊 [OUTRO – Fading, over ocean waves + single piano note + distant ship bell + creaking metal → silence]
(FEMALE — whispering, fading into the deep)
I sleep below… but hear you still —
Your laughter floats… from windowsill… of time.
Not gone… not lost… just out of view —
I’m where your love… still sails… with you…
(last sound: ocean wave → ship bell → metal creak → silence)
