[ Featuring Echo ]
I found a compass rose etched into the ground
Its petals frayed and weathered, spinning without sound
Each point a faded promise, a path I couldn't take
The center holds a secret that the years will never break
The wind pulls softly, like a hand I used to know
But every step feels heavier the further that I go
Broken compass rose, tell me where to turn
I've been walking circles, chasing bridges as they burn
Your petals hold the answers, but I can't see the design
Broken compass rose, will I ever find the line?
The shadows fall like markers in a place I don't belong
The air hums with a melody, a half-remembered song
I trace the jagged edges, but the pieces never fit
And every time I start again, I lose a part of it
The stars align, but never for the ones who wait too long
And even constellations can't undo what's gone
Broken compass rose, tell me where to turn
I've been walking circles, chasing bridges as they burn
Your petals hold the answers, but I can't see the design
Broken compass rose, will I ever find the line?
Maybe there's no north, no place to call my own
Maybe the petals scatter so we're meant to walk alone
But even in the breaking, there's beauty in the fall
Every path we didn't take still means we tried it all
Broken compass rose, tell me where to turn
I've been walking circles, chasing bridges as they burn
Your petals hold the answers, but I can't see the design
Broken compass rose, will I ever find the line?
The compass fades to nothing, the ground is bare and still
But something in the silence feels like it was always real
Broken compass rose, I'll carry what you showed
Even broken, you can guide me home
