P Ya Nist - No light Returns

A haunting descent into isolation where emptiness feels louder than pain, this piece traces a soul drifting through disconnection and fading identity, only to arrive at a quiet, almost unsettling acceptance, where solitude no longer wounds, but becomes the only truth left to hold. [Verse 1] I walk a road that never ends, With silence curling at my feet. I lit a match in a room full of rain, Hoping the smoke would speak for me. Each step, a weight I never dropped. Each breath, a loaded gun. I called out just to feel alive, But no answer ever comes. [Pre-Chorus] I don’t belong to anyone. I don’t belong to me. I wear my hurt like hand-me-downs, That no one else can see. [Chorus] No light returns, No voices call. I’m just a name, Scratched on the wall. No light returns, No shadows stay. The world keeps turning, I drift away. [Verse 2] They laugh like they're still breathing fire, But I burned out years ago. Their joy is a song I used to hum, Before the wind turned cold. I walk this road with numb intent, Like motion is enough. If pain’s the only constant now, Then maybe that’s my love. [Pre-Chorus] I don’t belong in memories. I don’t belong in dreams. I’m just the pause before the verse, In someone else’s theme. [Chorus] No light returns, No voices call. I’m just a scar, They don’t recall. No light returns, No shadows stay. They build their heaven, I drift away. [Bridge] I’ve walked through nights that had no sky, Through cities built on blame. If being seen means bleeding bright, Then I refuse the flame. [Final Verse] So let the match stay unstruck. Let the rain keep falling in. I walk this road with quiet peace, No need to try again. The silence doesn’t scare me now. It feels like something true. I used to scream for someone else, Now I just listen too. [Final Chorus] No light returns, But that’s alright. I found myself, Between the night. No light returns, And no one stares. But I still walk, And I’m still there.
