Lyrics

Intro – Ambient / Atmospheric
This already happened before I even learned your name
I remember the ending more clearly than the beginning
It feels like time is folding back into itself again
[Verse 1 – Female Clean (emotional / fragile)]
If you leave me… I’ve been here before
Same wound behind the same door
I feel the shape of your absence early
Like it’s already hurting me
Every word you haven’t said yet
echoes in my chest like regret
I recognize the way you disappear
before you even appear
Verse 1 – Male (aggressive / grounded)
You don’t leave
you repeat through me
every version of you returns to me eventually
you think this is new
but I’ve already worn your goodbye
you are not escaping
you are cycling back into me
Pre-Chorus – Dual tension
(Female) I feel it happening again
(Male) Because it never ended
Chorus – Massive Hybrid Hook
WE COLLIDE
like memory trapped in broken time
two souls repeating the same design
I feel you in my bloodstream
like a violent waking dream
WE COLLIDE
no escape, no divide
we fall back every time
same frequency, same fall
we were made to lose it all
[Verse 2 – Atmospheric / cinematic expansion]
I see the collapse before it forms
like I’ve lived inside this storm
every version of you I meet
already feels incomplete
the silence between us bends
like it knows how this ends
I try to change what I already know
but it always chooses to go
[Verse 2 – Male (Bleed From Within aggression)]
you don’t understand repetition
you are the repetition
every path you try to break
is the one I remake
you call it fate
I call it interface
Pre-Chorus – escalation
(Female) I swear I’ve felt this fall
(Male) because I caused it all
Chorus – Heavier, industrial edge
WE COLLIDE
no pulse, no truth, no light inside
we are the damage we can’t hide
I reach for you through broken time
and you become the end of mine
[Breakdown – Industrial / existential collapse]
WE NEVER STOP
WE NEVER BREAK
WE ONLY RECREATE THE SAME MISTAKE
(Male screams)
YOU ALWAYS COME BACK
(Female distorted whisper)
I never left… I never left…
(Both)
WE ARE THE LOOP THAT NEVER ENDS
Bridge – Cosmic duality
we are echoes learning to speak
inside the same repeating grief
no first time, no last goodbye
just versions of you and I
Final Chorus – cinematic peak
WE COLLIDE
beyond the edge of space and mind
two fractured lives intertwined
we are everything we break
and everything we take
WE COLLIDE
no ending left to define
just you inside of me and time
forever trapped in the same design
Outro – fading atmospheric
(Female) it always comes back
(Male) because it never left
(Both whisper) we are one again
