[Intro] [Vocal: airy, intimate, close-mic | slow breath] Hush… (Humming) Starlight on my hands A small blue pulse, a fragile lamp [Verse 1] [Vocal: intimate narrative, tender] If the Earth were only a few feet wide Floating over grasses after rain We’d circle it like a holy thing Counting oceans in our palms again We’d trace the rivers like silver thread And guard the breath around its skin A thin blue veil, a borrowed gift That keeps our names from vanishing [Pre-Chorus] [Vocal: rising urgency, restrained] And we would see what distance hides How quickly beauty breaks How every border fades to nothing When the cradle starts to shake [Chorus] [Vocal: cinematic soar, anthemic belt | sustained vowels] Hold it like it’s all we’ve got Hold it like a heart, not a rock Only one blue fire in the dark Only one home where our lives can start Hold it, hold it—don’t let it fall If the Earth were a few feet… we’d love it all [Verse 2] [Vocal: warm, resolute, slightly more grit] People would come from everywhere To learn the shape of “enough” To marvel at the moving storms And the quiet work of love They’d kneel beside the little seas And hear the wild inside the wave They’d see the creatures on the shore And swear no power owns the brave [Pre-Chorus] [Vocal: rising urgency, breathless] But here we trade our days for dust For flags that can’t be breathed While someone holds the throne of fire And forgets what we need [Chorus] [Vocal: anthemic belt, layered | melodic peak] Hold it like it’s all we’ve got Hold it like a heart, not a rock Only one blue fire in the dark Only one home where our lives can start Hold it, hold it—don’t let it fall If the Earth were a few feet… we’d love it all (Echo: love it all) [Bridge] [Vocal: stripped back, vulnerable crack | minimal instrumentation] I don’t know who wrote the words But they wrote them into me So I’m asking—soft and steady— Can we choose what we can’t replace? [Build | orchestral swell | choir pads] Turn the anger into shelter Turn the fear into a vow [Chorus] [Vocal: full power, cinematic soar | octave jump] Hold it like it’s all we’ve got Hold it like a heart, not a rock Only one blue fire in the dark Only one home where our lives can start Hold it, hold it—don’t let it fall If the Earth were a few feet… we’d love it all Hold it, hold it—hear it call We’re the hands around the world… we’re the wall [Outro] [Vocal: airy, fading, intimate] Hush… (Humming) Starlight on my hands One small blue pulse, a fragile lamp [End] [Fade out]
