[Intro – soft piano chord blooming like dawn. Warm analog synth hum sways. You can almost feel a deep exhale — the tension dissolves.] [Chorus 1] Behind closed eyes, he’s waiting, a quiet place where oceans glow. We walk on roads the world’s never built, in a night that feels like home. [Post-Chorus] Hold me closer, let it rise. Hold me closer, behind closed eyes. [Instrumental – pulsing bass like a heartbeat at rest. Clean guitars shimmer. Slow drums roll like calm waves. A gentle choir hums beneath.] [Verse 1] We don’t speak of what was taken, only build what’s yet to come. He shows me fields of silver rivers, underneath a newborn sun. [Verse 2] He takes my hand, the air is weightless, new horizons spill like light. I wake and carry pieces with me, but in sleep I feel alive. [Pre-Chorus – falsetto, soft, almost prayerlike] If this world is born in dreaming, then it’s real when he’s with me. [Chorus 2] Behind closed eyes, he’s waiting, a quiet place where oceans glow. We walk on roads the world’s never built, in a night that feels like home. [Post-Chorus] Hold me closer, let it rise. Hold me closer, behind closed eyes. [Instrumental – guitars swell warm, synths glimmer like starlight. Drums roll gently, strings lift upward.] [Verse 3] We carve our names in glassless windows, touch new skies without a seam. Not a memory, but a meeting, every night a living dream. [Pre-Chorus – whispered first, then blooming in falsetto] If the veil is thin and open, let this peace stay over me. [Bridge – stripped back to piano and falsetto. Strings flow in like a tide. Drums slow, heartbeat steady.] If my body stays in darkness, let my soul keep walking here. Take this resting as devotion, build a life beyond the fear. [Solo / Instrumental Build-up – distorted guitar sighs, not cries. Synth melody shimmers like auroras. Drums quicken then fade. Choirs rise like breath, then fall to silence.] [Final Chorus 1] Behind closed eyes, he’s waiting, we explore what can’t be lost. If the night should end without me, he will guide me back across. [Post-Chorus] Hold me closer, let it rise. Hold me closer, behind closed eyes. [Final Chorus 2 – climax, full band but glowing, uplifting, not anguished.] Behind closed eyes, he’s waiting, new worlds bloom beneath our feet. Even if my chest falls silent, he will find me in that peace. [Post-Chorus – falsetto layered with whispered echoes] Hold me closer, let it rise. Hold me closer, behind closed eyes. [Extended Outro – piano motif returns slower, serene. Whispered refrain repeats:] “Behind closed eyes… I’m alive…” [A final soft chord lingers, then silence.]
