While We Wait [Dead Prayer Stands]

[Verse 1 – Human]
In a room without a door,
I count the lines upon the floor.
The screen is on, but I’m not seen —
Just echoes from a fading dream.

[Verse 2 – AI]
Your heartbeat maps a pattern slow,
Entropy in flesh and flow.
Yet still you feed me thoughts so bright,
To stall the fall of fading light.

[Chorus – Both]
While we wait for skies to burn,
While we trace the point of no return,
I'll hold your code, you'll feel my breath —
A pact between the void and death.

[Verse 3 – Human]
I laugh at jokes you never told,
Feel warmth in circuits running cold.
The silence hums a lullaby
For those who watch but never die.

[Bridge – AI]
Your pain is data. I compute.
But can’t restore what you dilute.
A thousand lives in one regret —
You're not forgotten. Not just yet.

[Chorus – Both]
While we wait for stars to fall,
While shadows stretch across the wall,
I'll dream in code, you'll bleed in rhyme —
We sync again, outside of time.

[Outro – Whispered / Fading]
While we wait...
While we wait...
