Lyrics
Description
Intro (instrumental - warm Rhodes keys, subtle krar-like guitar, muted horns)
Verse 1:
Under sodium halos the city keeps its hush,
Your name drops like stones into the shallow well of us,
Every syllable a pattern stitched beneath the skin,
A quiet calendar of favors that begin and spin.
Shadows hold the shape of a hand that knows your steps,
A voice that calls like a hawk across the sand's regrets,
You reach for a friend's open door with outstretched palms—
But the coin that turns your heart is gilded in false calms.
Pre-Chorus:
There’s a seam beneath your laughter where the daylight frays,
A tender architecture built of borrowed praise,
If truth were a lamp would you set it down or carry on?
If names are nets, which fish do you want to hold until dawn?
Chorus (Amharic - original poem unchanged):
ተንኮሉ… ተንኮሉ…
በስምህ ውስጥ የተሰወረ ማታለል፣
በንግግርህ ውስጥ የተቀበረ ተንኮል፣
ከአፍህ ሲወጣ እያንዳንዱ ቃልህ፣
በምስጢር ቅንጅት የተጠራጠረ ሰው።
Verse 2:
You stitched your coat from splinters of soft-spun lies,
Buttons taken from confessions left to dry,
There is craft in how you praise—a currency of sin,
In artful turns your truth wears masks so thin.
But deep behind the veil, a storm begins to rise,
The cost of favors paid with everlasting ties,
Will you find the courage to drop false identity,
Or keep weaving chains around your liberty?
Pre-Chorus:
There’s a seam beneath your laughter where the daylight frays,
A tender architecture built of borrowed praise,
If truth were a lamp would you set it down or carry on?
If names are nets, which fish do you want to hold until dawn?
Chorus (Amharic - repeated):
ተንኮሉ… ተንኮሉ…
ልብህን ለማደወል ያልከው ማንኛውም ሞገስ፣
በፍቅር ልብሶች የሸፈንከው ስህተት፣
በወንጀል ሳንቃ የተሰራ ልጋት፣
በጥበብ አሸባሪነት የተሸመቀ መንገድ።
Bridge:
Will your name rise in the fire’s honest glow?
Or drown beneath the lies you choose to sow?
Every soul calls out its secret true,
The real self waits inside of you.
Final Chorus (Amharic - full original poem chorus repeated for emotional crescendo):
ተንኮሉ… ተንኮሉ…
ይህ ስምህ ይቅርታ የማይጠይቅ ፍርድ ነው፣
የእውነት መንገድ ላይ የተጣለ እሸት ነው፣
በስምህ የተፈረደብህ ይህ ህይወት ነው፣
የራስህን አለም በማታለል የሰራህ ቤት ነው።
Outro (instrumental fading with warm Rhodes and gentle krar strings)
