Lyric

The Unspoken Echo

HIKARI

Clock ticks slow upon the wall

Your shadow fades along the hall

I reach for you but touch the air

A heavy silence everywhere

The moonlight spills across the floor

I'm waiting by the closed door

I pick up the phone and dial your name

But put it down, it's just a game

The words I hold within my chest

Are secrets that I can't confess

I'm drowning in this hollow space

Just searching for your distant face

I want to see you but I can't find the way

I want to tell you what I need to say

But the distance grows like a winter night

And I'm lost without your guiding light

I'm standing here all on my own

In a world that feels so cold and lone

Waiting for a sign that never comes

While my aching heart just beats and drums

Another morning turns to gray

I watch the clouds just drift away

My coffee's cold, my spirits low

I wonder where the feelings go

The empty chair across from me

Is all the proof of what could be

I try to breathe but it hurts too much

To miss the warmth of your gentle touch

The questions haunt my tired mind

Are you the one I'm meant to find

Or am I just a ghost of you

In everything I try to do

I want to see you but I can't find the way

I want to tell you what I need to say

But the distance grows like a winter night

And I'm lost without your guiding light

I'm standing here all on my own

In a world that feels so cold and lone

Waiting for a sign that never comes

While my aching heart just beats and drums

Song Introduction: The Unspoken Echo
Drowning in silence, unable to say "I miss you."

The ticking of a clock on the wall and shadows vanishing down the hallway. This work is a poignant yet beautiful ballad depicting the loneliness of being left behind in a "hollow space," yearning for a loved one who has gone to an unreachable place. The sound produced by SUNO AI spreads quietly like a cold winter night, gently enveloping emotions that have nowhere to go.

The greatest highlight is the "sweet whisper voice" that expresses "unconfessable secrets" locked deep within the heart as if they were breaths themselves. It captures the poignant image of someone picking up and putting down the phone, staring at cooling coffee, and longing for the warmth that once resided there. The breathy vocals dramatically portray the pain of struggling to find a fading "guiding light" while standing alone.

"Have I simply become a ghost of your existence?" Burdened by such a question, one can do nothing but continue to mark time with a heartbeat in a lonely world. This is a song to be heard on a quiet night, as unspoken feelings pile up in the heart like an echo.
