Tracing Stars

Modern Synthpop Emotional Synthwave Anthemic Synthpop Cinematic Synthpop

I wrote "Tracing Stars" from that place where you feel like something has knocked the air out of you and you do not really know what to do with yourself. The song is about stepping outside instead of spiraling, looking up, and letting the size of the sky take some of the weight off your chest. It is not about finding a perfect answer. It is about getting enough distance from the hurt to breathe again.

// Lyrics

Chorus 1

  1. Tracing stars through a shattered sky
  2. Drawing lines where the answers hide
  3. When the night comes down and I lose my way
  4. I keep looking up, I keep looking up

  1. I know the silence that follows the damage
  2. The kind that lingers when everybody's gone

  4. Like the sky might tell me where I belong

Chorus 2

  1. Tracing stars
  2. Drawing lines where the answers hide
