Lyric

Turning Tears to Gold

Tera Kira

Staring at the blue, where the edges never end

An endless sky, the only thing I call a friend

Living on my own, it’s a lonely kind of life

But it keeps me from the edges of the jagged knife

If I stay invisible, I’ll never have to bleed

My phone is lighting up, buzzing in the palm of my hand

Suddenly, a voice is more than I can stand

I’ve been leaving it on silent, hiding in the shade

But I’m reaching for the answer, letting out the light I stayed

I think I’m ready for a human sound

Not just anyone—it’s you I’ve finally found

Why are you crying through a broken laugh?

Searching for the pieces of our better half?

"I just wanted to talk," you whisper on the line

I can’t stay long, I’m running out of time

Why do you ask? Because I’m terrified to know

That losing you again would be the final blow

Don’t waste your tears on a ghost like me

You’re making me want to believe in what I see

I want to hold you, I want to keep you near

Then—the line goes dead, and all I feel is fear

Why? Why did you disappear?

Then I hear my name, a whisper from behind

Were you always this close? Were you always this kind?

Ah—still in tears, like an aquamarine stone

The only one who won’t leave me on my own

I want to trust again, I want to love you too

The only sky I need is the one I see in you

Let’s go see the aquamarine, the gem you adore

I’ll turn those crystalline tears into a smile once more

Before I knew it, I’m smiling with you

I believe in us, I know our love is true

Thank you

For finding me
