Lyric

Wet stone streets, my knees don’t trust

I smile like gold but I’m made of rust

Said “I’m fine” like it’s a prayer I know

Now the night repeats what I can’t let go

Hands in my pockets, heart on the ledge

Every step feels like a promise I’ll break

If I fall—no one will hear

So I scream where it’s quiet here

I’m done with “later”, done with “someday”

I turn the wheel toward “right now”, okay

Yoiyoi light, come guide me through

Make my shadow something I can use

I’ll stomp the blur till it turns to truth

Right here, right now— I won’t fade away

I won’t fade away

Keep me alive tonight

Keep me alive tonight

Lanterns sway, I’m still in the fight

Festival drums in the far-off air

Like a ghost hand pulling at my hair

I hate how I miss the version of me

Who believed that “easy” could be real

If I break—don’t look away

Let it hurt, then let it change

No more excuses dressed in style

I want the truth, even if it bites

Yoiyoi light, come guide me through

Make my scars look beautiful too

I’ll stomp the blur till it turns to truth

Right here, right now— I won’t fade away

I won’t fade away

I keep a grave in my chest for “almost”

For every try I never followed

I’m tired of living like I’m half a name

So if I shake—still say my name

Keep me alive…

Yoiyoi light, come guide me through

Make my shadow something I can use

I’ll stomp the blur till it turns to truth

Right here, right now— I won’t fade away

Yoiyoi light— keep me alive tonight

Yoiyoi light— I’m still in the fight

Yoiyoi light— keep me alive tonight

Right here, right now— I won’t fade away
