Vocalist has restricted range, Create a song with an introspective, poetic, and emotionally raw vibe, driven by intricate piano melodies with dynamic shifts from delicate to intense, The lyrics should be vivid and metaphorical, weaving personal confession with spiritual and mythic imagery, exploring themes of self-discovery, connection, and transcending inner struggles, Use a confessional tone, blending vulnerability with empowerment, and incorporate layered metaphors (e, g, references to bones, stars, or threads) to evoke a sense of intimacy and universality, The vocal delivery should be emotive, with a mix of soft, whisper-like verses and soaring, cathartic choruses, The arrangement should feature lush, expressive piano as the backbone, with subtle percussive or ambient textures to enhance the emotional depth, Aim for a sound that feels both fragile and transcendent, like a personal diary set to music
