Velvet Decay

[Verse 1]
This city's old fabric, torn at the edges, yeah, it suits me,
Unspooling stories in the heavy air, just for you to see.
A palimpsest of whispers, in the brick dust and the rust,
Finding transient beauty, in what the world forgot, just because.

[Chorus]
My threads are tangled, darling, a beautiful mess you can't mend,
In this velvet decay, I watch my new patterns transcend.

[Verse 2]
The hum of the turbines, still echoes in my bones,
These veridian creepers, reclaiming forgotten zones.
A chrysalis of shadow, spun from what's been left behind,
The comfort of this wreckage, leaves no thread unwound behind.

[Chorus]
My threads are tangled, darling, a beautiful mess you can't mend,
In this velvet decay, I watch my new patterns transcend.

[Bridge]
You think these stitches fray? It's just a different kind of strong,
A quiet loom spinning futures, where I've always belonged.

[Outro]
Dust motes dancing, in the quiet hum,
My tapestry unravels, until the next one comes.
