Kintsugi Sky

[Verse 1]
The city lights, a scattered gleam, unraveling an antique dream.
Old world shrinks, a careful fold, stories yet to be truly told.
Incense faint, a memory's sting, on fragile silk, new patterns sing.
A final taste of matcha's grace, then just the clouds, no time, no place.

[Chorus]
This engine's roar, a fierce new prayer,
Leaving static in the air.
No turning back, the sky's my own,
A silent strength I've always known.

[Verse 2]
Cobblestone paths, a distant line, threads of connection, now so fine.
Like glaze on pottery, cool and deep, the secrets that my spirit keeps.
Light through shoji, a veiled design, illuminates this bold new sign.
My past below, a fading art, a new creation in my heart.

[Chorus]
This engine's roar, a fierce new prayer,
Leaving static in the air.
No turning back, the sky's my own,
A silent strength I've always known.

[Bridge]
Each perfect step of chanoyu's rite, prepared me for this solitary flight.
A fleeting view, so sharp, so keen, this bitter-sweet, an altered scene.
A quiet storm, a chosen fate, stepping beyond the temple gate.
To find the peace in open space, leaving shadows, keeping grace.

[Outro]
Kyoto's echo, soft and low, the sky's embrace, where I will go.
