Where Music Becomes Emotion, Written In Lyrics By Laetitia Rose ༺✦☀︎♡☀︎✦༻༺✦☀︎♡☀︎✦༻༺✦☀︎♡☀︎✦༻ [Intro – whispered, distant] They gave me a serpent’s name, a crown I never asked to wear. Then you walked into the dark and smiled like you belonged there. [Verse 1] I grew up with ghosts in my blood, old names carved beneath my skin. Every room already knew me before they ever let me in. Then you leaned against the doorway, that crooked heaven on your lips, called me Prince just to provoke me, let your laughter leave its prints. I should’ve known you were dangerous when silence started wanting you. I’ve survived every curse they taught me, but I never learned what love could do. [Pre-Chorus] You touch my wrist, the whole room fades. Ancient blood, modern mistakes. And when you whisper my name I forget the one they gave me. [Chorus] My Sunshine, how did you get inside? I built these walls from blackened stone, you made a home behind my eyes. My Sunshine, burn through every lie. If I’m the darkness they all warned you of, then stay and ruin the night. Stay close. Stay wild. Stay mine tonight. My Sunshine. [Verse 2] We made a joke of wanting, flirted like it couldn’t bruise. Your knee against mine under tables, every glance another fuse. You’d call me Your Highness, laughing, I’d tell you to go straight to hell. But you always knew I loved it. God, you knew me far too well. Then jealousy tasted metallic when somebody touched your hand. And suddenly all our little games were something I could understand. I didn’t want attention. Maybe that was never true. Maybe I just wanted one pair of eyes to look at me the way you do. [Pre-Chorus] No Gaunt. No heir. No Slytherin throne. You strip every title down to the bone. When the castle calls me monster, you just pull me closer. [Chorus] My Sunshine, how did you get inside? I built these walls from blackened stone, you made a home behind my eyes. My Sunshine, burn through every lie. If I’m the darkness they all warned you of, then stay and ruin the night. Stay close. Stay wild. Stay mine tonight. My Sunshine. [Bridge – quiet, intimate] I know spells older than our names. I know how blood remembers pain. I know how to make a doorway bleed, how to wake what sleeps beneath. But I don’t know how you do this. One hand against my chest and all that ancient magic goes quiet. You kiss beneath my jaw, murmur, “There you are.” And for once... I don’t feel like somebody’s heir. I feel like yours. [Breakdown – heavy, desperate] So take the crown. Break it apart. Drag every serpent out of my heart. If they come for you, let them come through me. I’ll make this whole damn castle remember my ancestry. But you grab my face and tell me, “Stay.” Not fight. Not bleed. Not burn. Stay. And somehow that’s the hardest magic I’ve ever learned. [Final Chorus – soaring, emotional] My Sunshine, you found me underground, where green light stains the water and dead kings haunt the ground. My Sunshine, I’d choose you every time. Over blood, over legacy, over every sacred line. Let Salazar keep his history. Let the Gaunts keep their pride. I don’t need an ancient kingdom with your heartbeat next to mine. My Sunshine, if forever has a sound, it’s your laughter in the dungeon when there’s nobody around. [Outro – soft, almost whispered] Call me Prince again. I’ll roll my eyes. You’ll know I’m lying. Come closer, Sunshine. Let the whole old world keep turning without us. Tonight... I’m only Drystan. And I’m yours.
