It starts with trifles, things you barely miss,

(Verse 1)
It starts with trifles, things you barely miss,
A fleeting moment or a phantom kiss.
But then the circles start to pull away,
As people vanish in the light of day.
And finally, the mirror turns a lie,
The man you were begins to slowly die.

(Chorus)
Everything I love is destined to be lost,
I’ve learned to live and pay the ultimate cost.
From the smallest spark to the heart of who I am,
Life is just a tide that breaks every dam.
Yes, everything important slips right through my hand,
Leaving only footprints in the shifting sand.

(Verse 2)
You realize that what you held so dear,
Was only borrowed for a month or year.
Love can drift like smoke into the sky,
And oldest friends can bid a cold goodbye.
The cities that you once called "home" and "base",
Become just dots in some forgotten space.

(Bridge)
But here’s the twist, the secret of the soul:
Accepting breakage makes you truly whole.
I stop the counting of the missed mistakes,
And start the attempts, whatever it takes.
I grab my fate directly by the throat,
I use the wreckage just to stay afloat.

(Verse 3)
It’s a resource now, the emptiness I find,
A fuel for every thought within my mind.
No longer clinging, no longer seeking proof,
I build my greatness on this bitter truth.
To leave a legacy that will outlast my name,
I burn the losses to create the flame.

(Outro)
I’m destined to lose it all, it’s true,
The world, the memories, and even you.
But in this void where everything is gone,
I find the strength to carry something greater on.
Something greater...
Something more.
