A moment of loneliness captured in rhyme, adapted into lyrics, music and vocals generated with AI to create a haunting, soulful ballad of regret and sadness. If things had turned out differently, worked out better, perhaps something more fruitful could have taken place in a lost relationship. But time is unforgiving. Apathy and silence take their toll on every relationship. "Adrift" is about how I feel on occasion when I allow my mind to think of what may have been, instead of what is. The loss of love and trust that rips a piece of you out, stomps on it, burns it to ash, and sets those charred bits into a whirlwind of nothing, of emptiness...
"Adrift" Sometimes my mind drifts way back in time… When I knew your face and we shared a space… All the things we once believed… Now lost to empty… I try to recall all that we were… How we once felt… Did I even love you..? [Chorus] A smile turned to frown; it’s all upside down… You used to be here with me… Our touch became cold as we both – grew older… I thought you really loved me… Sometimes my mind thinks of what we left behind… I watched you drift away didn’t ask for you to stay… If I had held you back… It would have brought us such pain… The years we have been lost came at such a cost… Yet even though we’re far apart I never had the heart… We never were star-crossed… [Chorus] Our lives turned around; commitment unbound… I think we’re better – free… As we both grow older: more memories to behold… I’m still so lonely… I wish I could go back… I wish I could go back…
