Lyrics
Verse 1 (8)
Found in a stem, light under bark,
pale little pulse waking the dark.
Foot on the tile, shadow in lace,
I learn the city by reading its face.
Name on the mist, folded and thin,
letters of silver tucked in my grin.
“Stay,” says the street; “rise,” says the sky—
I thread the roofs and don’t reply.
Pre (5/4, 8) — airy, no listy chant
Lift the latch / fold the path / breathe,
veil to moon / shoulder the sleeve,
eyes say now / steps say light—
tilt—lean—cut—ignite.
7/8 pickup ×1
catch—go
Chorus (8) — punchy 4/4
Moon says “home,” but not yet, not yet; (C/R: “not yet”)
heart like a drum I won’t forget.
Feather-robe hush on a midnight line,
pull of the stars, but I draw mine.
Call me a tale—watch me be true;
gravity bends when I choose you.
If you see light on the eaves I set—
wish on it once… and not yet, not yet.
Post 2
(breath / hold)
Verse 2 (8)
Crowns made of quests, prices of names,
suitors with trinkets, ceremonial flames.
I walk the silk where the bamboo leans,
answer in motion, slip through the seams.
Lanterns confess, courtyards keep score,
envoys in white wait at the door.
I kiss the seal, warm it to gold—
open the world, refuse the mold.
Pre (5/4, 6) — variant
Count the calm / take the side,
line the cut / then we ride—
tilt—rise—slide.
7/8 pickup ×1
spark—drop
Chorus (10) — extended
Moon says “home,” but not yet, not yet;
beat in my chest is the vow I kept.
Feather-robe sway, edges align,
pull of the stars, but the choice is mine.
Say I’m a myth—watch how I write;
ink into dawn, violet to white.
If you hear wind where the rooftops met—
wish on it twice… and not yet, not yet.
Tag — HARD STOP
one breath / release / hush.
