Closer To The Dark

लिरिक्स

**[Verse 1]** Snow falls silent where I stand, Violet fire in an open hand. You watch the shadows touch my skin, Then take a breath and follow in. Moonlight catches on my horns, Silk slips softly past the thorns. You came to ask me for my name— Now you forget why you came. **[Pre-Chorus]** I hear the change inside your breathing, See the words you leave unsaid. There’s a darkness waking with me, And you turn toward it instead. **[Chorus]** Come closer to the dark, Let the moonlight find your face. Tell me what you’re reaching for Before you close this space. Say Cecilia softly, Let it linger on your tongue. You can leave before the sunrise— But the night has just begun. **[Verse 2]** Gold eyes linger, brave hearts stray, Promises lose what they meant by day. A lowered voice, a sideways smile, And someone stays another while. But underneath this velvet calm, Old winter sleeps inside my palms. You want the fire behind my eyes— Would you stay when shadows rise? **[Pre-Chorus]** All those whispers call me closer, Offer strength if I let go. You reach out to touch my shoulder— There’s so much you do not know. **[Chorus]** Come closer to the dark, Let the moonlight find your face. Tell me what you’re reaching for Before you close this space. Say Cecilia softly, Let it linger on your tongue. You can leave before the sunrise— But the night has just begun. **[Bridge — intimate, almost whispered]** Don’t kneel for me. Come meet my eyes. I’ve heard enough Of beautiful lies. If you want me, Want what’s here: The hands that tremble, The teeth, the fear. Touch me gently. Let me choose. There’s still a woman I could lose. **[Final Chorus]** Come closer to the dark, Now you’ve seen beneath the flame. Will you take my offered hand When desire becomes a name? Say Cecilia softly, Like there’s someone worth the dawn. Let me hear it through the whispers When the violet light is gone. **[Outro — whispered]** Snow upon your shoulders. Your fingers warm in mine. Stay until the morning— Let me take my time.
