Perfect Illusion - Emilys part

[Intro] (Cinematic Orchestral Pop: Lush, sweeping strings slowly build up. An elegant, tragic, and opulent atmosphere, accompanied by soft piano and distant timpani.) [Verse 1] (Emotional, sultry female vocals, filled with elegant melancholy) Commitment is like faith… A chosen devotion. That can seep in like a poisonous potion For me, commitment has a shadow side. A darker drive… And I have to decide Its constantly nagging Question: How far am I willing to go? Daniel cannot know: He tells me he feels understood. (Softly, with a hint of tragic irony) Lucky me. Now I have to pull through. [Chorus] (The orchestral arrangement softly swells. Soaring strings and soft percussions) He will still love me when I tear apart this beautiful facade. He will still love me when I leave him with an aching soul. I know he will, I know he will, I know that he will. I am almost there, I'll have my ring, I know the drill. I'm not stopping… Never Do I still want this? (Dark, resolute tone) More than ever. [Bridge] (The music pulls back to a delicate, weeping violin and slow piano, building up dramatically. I'm standing at the finish line... I will take what's mine My rage tells me I can burn all bridges down. All that trust, all that warmth, all that grace... A perfect pawn falling into place. He is my puppet dare I to let him drown? [Outro] (The strings swell one last time before slowly fading out, leaving only a tragic, beautiful piano melody.) (Breathy, romantic, yet haunting whisper) He thinks he knows the real me. But I am the architect of this fake reality. Trapped in this Grand delusion. Just a beautiful... perfect... illusion. (Fading into the orchestral silence) I'm not stopping.
