Zero Hour
PTI Lyrics

Choose her angled eyes.
Her eyes have a distinct, sharp shape that draws your attention and captures your gaze.

A pretty blur behind a strong outline.
She has a delicate, appealing appearance that contrasts her confident, bold personality.

Looking into you, I feel what’s there behind your stare.
I can sense the emotions and thoughts that you're hiding behind your expression when I look at you.

There’s nothing I can do.
I'm powerless to change the situation, no matter how much I may want to.

Remembering your glow, soft blue lights that once seemed so hopeful.
I recall the radiant, calming light that you used to emit, that once symbolized a hopeful future.

Take it in real slow; what burned in her was pure ether.
Take your time to truly appreciate her essence; what made her unique and special cannot be replicated.

There’s nothing left to hold.
There is no tangible item or feeling to cling onto, only memories and emotions that cannot be physically grasped.

A silhouette I know, 4 A.M. she stares out the window.
I'm familiar with the outline of her figure; envisioning her awake so early, I can imagine her silently observing the darkness outside.

Tell me what you see.
What does she see when she gazes at the stillness beyond the glass, and what does it mean to her?

A future past, an era gone and another shattered dream.
What she sees is a lost time that she cannot reclaim, and yet another aspiration that has been broken.

Before we say our last goodbyes, I feel the emptiness inside, like I left a part of me with you to die.
As we prepare to part ways, I feel a hollow ache within, like a piece of me was entrusted to you and is now fading away forever.

I don’t want to be the one you know, but never show and so I go.
I would rather distance myself from you completely than remain in a situation where we know each other but never truly express ourselves.

I don’t want to leave while there’s still hope.
Despite everything, I'm still holding onto a glimmer of optimism that things may turn out alright between us.

Would you walk away if I told you?
If I confessed my deepest fears and feelings, would you abandon me and our relationship?

I don’t want to find myself alone.
I don't want to end up isolated and lonely, without someone I care about nearby.

I’m still here but I will let you go.
I haven't disappeared, but I recognize that the time has come for us to separate and move on.

I don’t want to be the one you know.
I don't just want to be an acquaintance or a casual acquaintance to you; I need to be someone more meaningful.

I don’t want to leave while there’s still hope.
I'm still holding onto the hope that something can be salvaged from our relationship, even though the odds are against us.
