[Intro]
((Soft piano, ambient glow))
((Close, comforting))
Hey…
You’re still here…

[Verse 1]
You’re gonna be alright
Just a stumble in the road you chose
Scraped your hands
Little dirt on your clothes
But the sky never fell
And the sun still knows your name

It didn’t end you
Didn’t bend you out of place
Just a moment
Not a measure of your pace
You’re still moving
Even if it feels the same

[Pre-Chorus]
((Light swell))
Every fall feels like forever
When you’re lying in the dust
But forever’s just a feeling
Not a fact you have to trust

[Chorus]
((Lift, gentle but powerful))
You stumbled over a stone
That’s all
It means nothing
Your goal lies far beyond this wall

I know you’ll overcome this
You’ll walk again
Soon
You’ll walk again
Soon

This is not where your story stays
No, this is not where your story stays

[Verse 2]
((Subtle rhythm enters))
Hate is just a place we wander
When the weight is far too much
Build small fires in the dark
Just to feel a little touch

But those flames don’t keep you warm
They just flicker, then they fade
You don’t have to stay there
You don’t have to be afraid

There’s a road that keeps on calling
Even when you turn away
Every step you take toward it
Is a step you get to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
((Harmony layers))
You’re not broken, just unfolding
Through the pressure, through the strain
What feels like an ending
Is just learning through the pain

[Chorus]
((Fuller, layered))
You stumbled over a stone
That’s all
It means nothing
Your goal lies far beyond this wall

I know you’ll overcome this
You’ll walk again
Soon
You’ll walk again
Soon

This is not where your story stays
No, this is not where your story stays

[Bridge]
((Breakdown: piano + ambient swell))
Even mountains start as fragments
Even rivers start as rain
Every path is shaped by moments
That we thought we couldn’t take

So don’t measure your reflection
By the way you hit the ground
You’re still standing in the future
You just haven’t turned around

[Final Chorus]
((Bright, open, uplifting))
You stumbled over a stone
That’s all
It means nothing
Your goal lies far beyond this wall

And you will overcome this
You’ll walk again
Soon
You’ll walk again
Soon

This is not where your story stays
No, this is not where your story stays

[Outro]
((Soft fade, piano))
((Quiet, certain))
You’ll walk again…
Soon…
