[Verse 1]
Footsteps echo down the stone
Shadow dancing all alone
Letters torn and scattered dreams
Washed away in city streams

[Chorus]
Running in these sidewalk patterns
Looping thoughts that never matter
Flickering lights above my head
Sing a song I’ve never said

[Verse 2]
Elevators hum like prayers
Plastic plants and broken chairs
Voices muffled through the wall
Whispers no one hears at all

[Bridge – parlato ritmato, voce filtrata]
I saw your name on a peeling door
I heard your laugh in a corridor
But the clock hands spun too fast
We were future, now we're past

[Chorus]
Running in these sidewalk patterns
Looping thoughts that never matter
Flickering lights above my head
Sing a song I’ve never said



[Verse 3]
Coffee stains on morning skin
New routines where old had been
Steps align with metro beats
Lost in concrete lullabies


[Final Chorus – più lento, corale]
Running in these sidewalk patterns
Looping thoughts that never matter
Every crack beneath my feet
Feels like home — incomplete
