AS NIGHT FALLS
By ALEX BELEN18 Plays
MUSICAL INTRO - >16 beats / Atmospheric and cold]
[VERSE 1]
As night falls,
such a chill I feel.
Everything moves slowly
in this twilight
just beginning to wake.
I no longer understand
how all this I’m feeling is born.
[VERSE 2]
Unable to avoid it,
unwilling to dare
—at least a little—
to achieve acceptance.
It is all in vain
if in the end, perhaps, I fall...
[PRE-CHORUS]
Into this trap
where life and routine
make every single day
turn into a cruel nightmare;
I cannot win this dirty game.
[CHORUS]
Where there is so much falsehood
that aches, it wounds me,
and never ends.
In the end, at every corner,
it is waiting for me.
What does it matter
if now I no longer know
even where I stand.
Though I keep on asking,
it is all in vain:
no one has answered me yet.
[MUSICAL BRIDGE - >16 beats / Increasing intensity, crashing sound]
[VERSE 3]
Unaware there would be an encounter
that destiny arranged
like a crashing sound,
like lightning without the thunder.
[PRE-FINAL / CHORUS DEVELOPMENT]
Now I don't understand
if the storm that approaches
unexpectedly
only makes
my dilated pupils,
completely empty,
remain delayed,
lost.
[OUTRO SPOKEN / Over dense and dark music]
Dead while alive,
they seem to be
fast asleep.
Without even knowing
that within them exist
no more emotions,
nor illusions left.
Torrents will no longer flow
because passions have run dry.
[DRAMATIC FINAL CHORUS / Musical explosion]
Now I don't understand
if the storm that approaches
unexpectedly
only makes
my dilated pupils,
completely empty,
left without knowing
that within them exist
no more emotions
nor illusions left.
Torrents will no longer flow
because passions have run dry.
If now the storm
soaking my head
wipes away my sadness,
floods every certainty,
covering with a thick cloud...
It makes my clumsiness once again
get lost inside this dense mist.Released 9/3/26, 3m 43s
