Fall Streak
Nova Rai and Naimor · If I'm Around, 9 of 15

The story
It was raining in the city, and the people around us talked as if they would never die. We stood under one awning and looked up at a fall streak, that soft trail that falls from a cloud and never reaches the ground. It's not good, it's not bad, it's just the sound the moment has. Not lost, not found, just awake. If you feel it, it's real, and sometimes that is enough to guide you home.
Lyrics
There’s a shimmer in the rain tonight
A city breathing, slow and wide
People talk like they’ll never die
But I can hear the truth behind their smiles
There’s laughter spilling in the street
Wet glass catching golden leaves
And I’m just watching, not to hide
But to feel it all collide
It’s not good, it’s not bad
It’s just the sound the moment has
If you feel it, it’s real
If it’s real, you heal
Fall streak in the sky, I see it clear
Everything’s close, nothing’s near
We don’t need the light to shine
To know the sun is still inside
Fall streak in the grey, I’m awake
Not lost, not found, just awake
I don’t need the night to fade
To find my way
Everyone’s chasing something loud
But the rhythm’s softer in the crowd
Every face another dream half-told
Every silence worth more than gold
So I breathe, don’t break the flow
Let the fall streak guide me home
Not above, not below
Just here, where everything glows
Sometimes you wake and see too much
The noise, the smoke, the human touch
But that’s the grace, the way it bends
The way it never really ends
Fall streak in the sky, I see it clear
Everything’s close, nothing’s near
We don’t need the light to shine
To know the sun is still inside
