[Verse 1 – Soft Piano, Evan’s POV] 🎶 We were four in the fire, five in the storm, Brothers in madness, wild and reborn. Laughed through the pain, climbed through the night, Built our dreams under flashlight light. 🎶 🎶 But I heard a voice in a far-off crowd, A dream too loud to keep me down. While we mapped the stars from the frozen dirt, I felt the pull… of a different hurt. 🎶 [Pre-Chorus – Slow Build] 🎶 So I packed my heart, didn’t say goodbye, Just left a note… “Don’t ask me why.” To chase the lights beyond the hill, I broke the bond I swore I'd never kill… 🎶 [Chorus – Huge Drums, Strings & Vocals] 🎶 When legends split the sky, Some must fall, so others fly. I had to leave, to find my fire, But it burned the bridge built on our wire. Now you're climbing, scarred but strong, While I perform where I don't belong. If dreams cost brothers in the frost... Tell me, was it worth the loss? 🎶 [Verse 2 – Kevin, Miles, Hunter & Caleb’s POV – Sung Together] 🎶 We stared at your footsteps in the snow, Felt the silence of letting go. No more jokes, no mid-night schemes, Just bitter air and broken dreams. 🎶 🎶 But we still climbed, mile by mile, Haunted by your crooked smile. We faced the cliff, we faced the doubt, You left — but we never tapped out. 🎶 [Bridge – Instrumental Swell, Flashback Feel] (Sounds of wind, faint echoes of laughter from the past) 🎶 “Hey, you guys think yetis wear boots?” “Last one up the rope swing eats a bug!” “Dude… what if we make it?” “You mean when?” 🎶 (Echo fades into roaring wind) [Final Chorus – All Voices, Layered & Soaring] 🎶 When legends split the sky, One took wings, the rest asked why. We bore the storm, we took the pain, And carved your name in Everest rain. Now we stand at the world’s high top, And still we wish you never stopped. But dreams don’t come without the cost… And love… is never truly lost. 🎶 [Outro – Gentle Acoustic Guitar, Fading Vocals] 🎶 So Evan… if you hear this song, Know your brothers still march on. You lit the fire, we bore the cold… Still climbing — still bold. Forever five… in the fold. 🎶
