Soft Lies

[Intro] Low light, don’t speak I can feel what you won’t keep [Verse 1] You drift out of time Say my name out of line Hands don’t match what you mean Something off in between You bend every rule Call it heat, call it truth But your pulse never stays It just slips, it just strays [Pre-Chorus] I see it before you move Every shift, every groove You don’t land, you just spin I don’t let that in [Chorus] No, no — I don’t follow that You blur, then you double back Sweet noise but it never lasts I don’t fall for that No, no — I don’t carry you I’ve seen what you turn into Soft lies in a neon hue I don’t answer you [Verse 2] Your touch feels rehearsed Like a line you reversed Every breath slightly wrong Like it don’t belong You say stay, then divide Half truth every time I don’t chase what won’t stand I don’t reach for your hand [Pre-Chorus] You fade when the frame gets clear Leave a trace, disappear I don’t hold what won’t stay I just turn away [Chorus] No, no — I don’t follow that You blur, then you double back Sweet noise but it never lasts I don’t fall for that No, no — I don’t carry you I’ve seen what you turn into Soft lies in a neon hue I don’t answer you [Bridge] Cold air on my chest No pull, no unrest You flicker, you bend But you don’t descend Say my name like a test I don’t fail, I don’t guess I just watch it unwind Leave it all behind [Outro] No echo, no trace I don’t keep your shape You dissolve in the blue I’m not reaching for you “Soft Lies” is a journey through the beauty of an illusion and the quiet strength required to walk away from it. Some people enter our lives like neon lights in a dark city, impossible to ignore, beautiful from a distance, but artificial when you get close. Their words feel like promises, their touch feels like connection, yet something underneath never truly belongs. This song captures the moment the illusion breaks. The moment you stop chasing a shadow, stop reaching for a person who only exists in fragments, and watch their memory fade into the night. The neon still glows, the city still breathes, but there is no longing left. Only silence, clarity, and the realization that some things are meant to dissolve into the blue. A story about recognizing the difference between desire and truth, and finding peace in letting a beautiful illusion disappear.
