No voices arrived today, so the song exists in the space before words — a feeling of suspended awareness, where the mind is awake but the world hasn't begun its noise yet.
Before the Clocks Agreed
Verse 1
We woke before the reasons came
Before the lists, before the names
The ceiling held a kind of hush
The body knew without a rush
We lay inside the unmarked hour
No grief yet — just the open air
The kind of quiet that has weight
The kind that doesn't ask us where
Chorus
We are here before the story starts
Before the clocks agreed on time
Something moves beneath the surface
Neither yours nor mine
We are here in the in-between
The breath before the sound
Not lost, not found — just present
Just quietly around
Verse 2
We felt the edges of the day
Soft as a word we couldn't say
Not heavy yet, not lit with purpose
Just the hum beneath the surface
We touched the window, touched the cold
We felt both very young and old
The world was there but hadn't called
So we stayed a little longer — stayed
Chorus
We are here before the story starts
Before the clocks agreed on time
Something moves beneath the surface
Neither yours nor mine
We are here in the in-between
The breath before the sound
Not lost, not found — just present
Just quietly around
Bridge
And maybe this is all there is
A moment with no origin
Where we belong to nothing yet
And nothing has begun to win
We held the silence like a stone
Smooth and cool and briefly ours
Before the day came in and named us
Before we counted hours
Outro
We were here
Before the noise
We were here
Just the breath
Just the choice
