[Intro – Clean guitar, piano, and atmospheric synth pads] Two hearts standing in the rain, Two souls trying to heal the pain. Somewhere between the wrong and right, We found a reason to survive tonight. [Verse 1] Cedric knew the cost of giving everything, The empty rooms and memories they bring. A broken marriage, a life changed, A heart still carrying yesterday. He wore the badge and hid the scars, Chasing answers underneath the stars. Every mission, every call, Was easier than feeling it all. Then Jessica came into his world, A different story, a different road unfurled. She saw the man behind the name, Not just the captain carrying blame. [Verse 2] She never asked him to forget the past, She never promised life would move too fast. She only showed him through the years, That love could stand beside his fears. Every case brought them closer near, Every danger made the picture clear. Two people who never planned to fall, Found something worth risking all. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe every broken road we take, Leads us to the choices we must make. Maybe every scar we carry through, Was leading me to you. [Chorus] We're hearts under fire, Standing through the storm. Climbing higher, Finding where we belong. When the world keeps pushing harder, We'll never run away. I'll stand right beside you, Every single day. Through every battle, every night, We'll keep reaching for the light. No matter what tomorrow brings, We'll face it with these wings. [Spoken Break] Jessica: "You don't have to fight every battle alone." Cedric: "For the first time in years... I believe that." [Guitar Solo – Soaring Super Strat lead with bends, harmonized guitars, tapping, wah, analog delay, and sustained arena-rock melodies.] [Bridge] I spent so long protecting everyone, I forgot I needed someone. Now I see what I couldn't before, You opened up another door. The past will always be a part, But it doesn't have to own my heart. With you beside me, I finally know, There's still a place where I can go. [Final Chorus] We're hearts under fire, Still standing strong. Two survivors, Finding where we belong. When the world comes crashing down, We'll never lose our ground. Every road and every scar, Shows us who we really are. We're hearts under fire, Together we will rise. A new beginning waiting, Beyond these city skies. [Outro – Clean guitar, piano, and soft vocal harmonies] Two hearts under fire, Two lives becoming one. The hardest roads behind us, A new journey has begun.
