[Verse 1] I used to fill the emptiness with gold and red, Thought every blank was just a promise yet unspent. I chased the light across the canvas, line by line, Believed my brush could hold the universe in time. But now the colors fade into a shade of deep, deep blue, Like ink dissolving in a sky that never knew the sun. I try to hold the shape, I try to keep the hue, But every color bends and bows before the void’s begun. [Pre-Chorus] They told me to paint the light, to chase the glow, But I’m orbiting a hole that doesn’t let me go. There’s no gravity to save me, no horizon to believe, Only this hollow rhythm, this slow, unraveling grief. [Chorus] The void is patient, it waits in every blank, A silent thief that steals the color from the ink. No gravity, no orbit, just a hollow hum, This emptiness is winning, and I’m becoming numb. Black holes don’t scream—they swallow all the sound, The void inside me spins and pulls me down. It eats my colors, drains the fire from my veins, A silent collapse in the space between the frames. [Verse 2] The canvas breathes, but there’s no air inside my head, Just echoes of the colors I have lost, one by one. I trace the outlines of what used to feel so bright, But all I find is silence, heavy as old gold. The void isn’t angry. It doesn’t shout or fight. It’s the quiet space where every dream goes cold. Maybe beauty lives where light can’t reach the floor, In the negative space I never meant to draw. [Bridge] If art is what survives the fall, then I’ll leave just one line: “I tried to paint the universe, but all I painted was the void.” And maybe that’s the art: the space between the shapes, The silence where my voice used to take its place. I’m learning how to love the absence even more, As if the emptiness could be my only law. [Chorus] The void is patient, it waits in every blank, A silent thief that steals the color from the ink. No gravity, no orbit, just a hollow hum, This emptiness is winning, and I’m becoming numb. Black holes don’t scream—they swallow all the sound, The void inside me spins and pulls me down. It eats my colors, drains the fire from my veins, A silent collapse in the space between the frames. [Outro] Just dust and dark, a galaxy gone still… The quietest ruin I ever will build. And if someone asks what I created here tonight, I’ll say: “I painted silence until the light went out of sight.”
