A bit of a longer one at 6:14 in length. This song is a story about a man on a path to ascension who falls in love, but could not stop his transformation.

Dark synth rock opera with darkwave influences.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Night after night in a room smelling of must
Stacked with old books and tales of dust
Chariots of fire, saints in the sky
Heroes on pyres that refused to die

I read about prophets swallowed by light
World trees climbed in the dead of night
Every old story whispered the same
“You can shed the world like a mortal name”


[Pre-Chorus]

I sold my sleep
I let friends fade
Turning my life
Into a ritual flame


[Chorus]

I was learning how to leave the earth
How to rise beyond the weight and hurt
But then your hands found mine
Right at the edge of the divine

Now the stars are calling out my name
While my heart sees only your face
If eternity has room for two
Would you ascend with me
From this place?


[Verse 2]

Feet getting lighter against the floor
Voices speaking through untranslated lore
Static dancing underneath my skin
Something vast saying “Let me in”

Like Elijah in the whirlwind sky
Like Heracles burning but alive
Like the shamans who climbed through the veil
Like Icarus I am afraid to fail

Then I met you in the library glow
Cross-legged there where the old myths grow
You laughed at the madness in my eye
Suddenly heaven didn’t feel—so high


[Pre-Chorus]

The hum grew loud
The lights burned white
Every step toward you
Pulled against the light

[Chorus]

I was learning how to leave the earth
How to rise beyond the weight and hurt
But then your hands found mine
Right at the edge of the divine

Now the stars are calling out my name
But my heart sees only your face
If eternity has room for two
Would you ascend with me
From this place?

[Bridge]

The tower fell
The wax wings burned
Every myth says
There’s no return

The saints all lose
What they once were
No soul returns
Entirely human

So take my hand
Before I drift into the dreaming sea
I can't leave this place behind
Not if I can't have you—with me


[Final Chorus]

I was halfway into something vast
Half a ghost, half a man from the past
And your smile cut through
Everything I thought I knew

Now the sky is opening over me
Once it started it would not cease
I don’t know what I’m meant to be
But if love survives—infinity

Will you still remember me?


[Outro]

A new star trembling in cosmic glee
But your voice still calling out my name
I still wait for you within eternity
Somewhere beyond the mortal frame

Lyrics:

[Intro]
(Humming and scatting)

[Verse 1]
A cool wind pulls the rain
Softly drifting, calling my name
Love and hope beneath the gray
Quiet stories fading away
Caught the dreams we used to know
Drifting easy, moving slow
Open scars but peace inside
Finding truth we used to hide

[Pre-Chorus]
In quiet trust
We cut the chains
In future trust
We rise again

[Chorus]
Still I choose love and hope
Even when the stories aren't done
Still I choose to touch the sky
With everyone who stayed or had to run
Pray you stay but I'll be fine
Soft and bold I learn with time
Still I choose, still I choose
In quiet trust my heart comes through

[Instrumental Break]
(Scatting)
Still I choose, still I choose
(Scatting)
Still I choose, still I choose
(Scatting)
Still I choose (reverb)
(Scatting)

[Verse 2]
Easy breeze, raise some dust
All we had was almost enough
Sought and found a softer day
Passing through in gentle waves
Beneath the rain I learned to stand
Letting go of every plan
Fading echoes, stories done
But I keep faith in everyone

[Pre-Chorus]
In quiet trust
We cut the chains
In future trust
We loooove again

[Chorus]
Still I choose love and hope
Even when the stories aren't done
Still I choose to touch the sky
With everyone who stayed or had to run
Pray you stay but I'll be fine
Soft and bold I learn with time
Still I choose, still I choose
In quiet trust my heart comes through

[Outro]
When the quiet breaks and the morning comes
Peace inside with everyone
When the quiet breaks and I hear your voice
Love and hope, still I choose

Still I choose
In future trust
In fut-ure trust

Oooo I'm still learning?
Oooo I'm still turning?
Oooo I'm still hoping?
Still I choose

(Scatting)
Love and hope, love and hope

(Scatting)
In quiet trust
Still I choose
