Mars

[Intro]

(space wind FX, soft moans, whispered)

“So close I could reach… yet you’re galaxies away.”

[Verse 1]

You orbit in my every thought

But I can’t hold what time forgot

I see you smile in solar haze

But all I touch is empty space

We’re aligned in every star and sign

But still your hand won’t reach for mine

What force could keep a love so true

From living out the way it’s due?

[Chorus]

Mars… you’re so close, I taste your rain

But every step is still in vain

We’re equally yoked, I know it’s right

But you fade with every night

Why do I love you more each time

I’m met with silence and no sign?

Is this life a cruel joke…

And have we never even spoke?

[Verse 2]

You move like dreams I once believed

Your soul’s the light I can’t retrieve

We never danced, we never kissed

But somehow you're the love I miss

I pray in tongues I never learned

To feel the fire you never burned

But still your ghost ignites my skin

Like fate refused to let us begin

[Bridge]

(whispered) “You were written in my destiny… but torn from my reality.”

(moan textures swirl behind vaporized vocal chops)

Maybe in some other plane

We met without the loss, the chain

[Final Chorus]

Mars… you’re so close, I taste your rain

But every step is still in vain

We’re equally yoked, I know it’s right

But you fade with every night

Why do I love you more each time

I’m met with silence and no sign?

Is this life a cruel joke…

And have we never even spoke?

[Outro]

(faint whisper) “I loved you from a world away… and you’ll never even know.”

(space FX, fading pad, soft female breath)
