Like Snowflakes / Gothic Symphonic Poetica / Dark Ines

Song: Like Snowflakes
Text:
Verse 1
At dawn, when silence coils around the streets,
Winter’s breath slips through the houses like lost memories.
Snowflakes fall like whispered confessions,
Melting on my skin like secrets no one dared to speak.
In the noise of daily life I hide a fragile mist of dreams,
And the day rises slowly, as if afraid to arrive.

Chorus
White snowfall veils the world like a shroud,
Flakes fading on my hands like extinguished prayers.
In the frozen air I hear echoes of forgotten stories;
Winter rewrites them with shadow and pale light.
And I walk among the silhouettes, though the wind claws my face,
Leaving trails that vanish quickly — as I will someday.

Verse 2
On the sidewalks people move in silent procession,
Locked inside their worries like in cold chapels.
Night hesitates to leave, dawn refuses to bloom,
And the snow reflects our lives in fragile glimmers.
Though everyday burdens pull at my sleeve,
In this white stillness I uncover both my darkness and my calm.

Chorus
White snowfall veils the world like a shroud,
Flakes fading on my hands like extinguished prayers.
In the frozen air I hear echoes of forgotten stories;
Winter rewrites them with shadow and pale light.
And I walk among the silhouettes, though the wind claws my face,
Leaving trails that vanish quickly — as I will someday.

Bridge
In the half-light everything becomes more truthful,
Every breath carves shapes into the frozen air.
And when a flake slides down my skin like a tear,
I feel that even the darkness can offer solace.

Verse 3
Beneath the streetlamps’ dim and haunted glow,
I sense the world turning slower with each breath.
Footsteps echo like distant, fading hymns,
While snow gathers softly on the ruins of yesterday.
And in this cold, where time feels almost sacred,
I walk forward, carrying the weight of what I am — and what I shed.

Chorus – Outro
Winter whispers for me to halt my stride,
Flakes vanish quickly, but their chill remains within.
In this pale expanse, days and nights entwine,
And I search for a glimmer of light in the shadow that follows me.
