This is my entry for the #soundseasons event and I tried something different again. I have a version with glitches and echoes but I couldn't finish it in time so this is a different ones. I hope you'll like it as well.

It's also another story like my previous ones.

║ Prolog ║
╚═•◦•◦•═════════•◦•◦•═╝

Lyra’s curiosity broke the seal between seconds, and she fell into a silent drift. Umbra, following her light, slipped through the same tear. Now they share a strange land where time warps and every step feels both instant and endless.

║ Lyrics ║
╚═•◦•◦•═════════•◦•◦•═╝

『 Verse 』
Walls shift and swim around
This non place, it stretches thin
Then collapses
Time’s a sound
A broken record skipping, a frantic spin.
Umbra’s near
A fixed point maybe
Or just dragged in
To this bizarre chronal sin?
The air itself feels heavy and then disappears.
Seconds crawl
Then years just flash
Gone

『 Chorus』
Caught in the temporal snare!
Fast forward, rewind, no control
Stuck between the tick and the teər
Cracking the frame of my soul!
A moment lasts forever
Dragging on

『 Post-Chorus』
Then shatters like cheap glass thrown.
Are we escaping?
NEVER.
Just particles randomly sown

『 Verse 』
One step takes an age to land
So slow
My breath hangs suspended, like a painting
Then the next step? A blur across the sand
Or whatever this floor is, imitating

Solid ground?

Umbra reaches out, hand moving too fast.
Then stopping, still.
A future? A past?
This prison makes no sound.
Just the feeling of the universe unwinding, ill.
Is that morning? Or endless dusk?
My own thoughts fraying at the husk.

『 Chorus』
Caught in the temporal snare!
Fast forward, rewind, no control
Stuck between the tick and the teər
Cracking the frame of my soul!
A moment lasts forever
Dragging on...

『 Post-Chorus』
Then shatters like cheap glass thrown.
Are we escaping?
NEVER.
Just particles randomly sown.

『 Bridge』
Is... is this... real?
Tell me.
Or a dream state?
The edges blur, I can’t feel.
Anything solid... it’s too late.
Umbra?
Can you hear me through the fuzz?
Nothing between us
Because...
Because...
(why?)

『 Outro』
Fast slow broken
Is it fast?
Or just broken time?
At least we are together
