[Intro] [Soft guitar, slow build] [Verse: Male] I walk with stones inside my chest, Each step a promise I can’t bless, The sky is low, the road is thin, I taste the rust of where I’ve been. I learned to smile with broken teeth, To call it air when I can’t breathe, I carry nights I couldn’t fight, Still searching for a trace of light. [Verse: Female] I’ve danced with fear in borrowed skin, Held my tears like hidden sins, The mirror knows my quiet wars, The scars I don’t explain anymore. I loved too hard, I stayed too long, Mistook the ache for something strong, But even storms can’t kill the flame, That whispers softly your name. [Pre-Chorus: Both, build up] We are not clean, we are not whole, But fire still lives inside the coal. [Chorus: Both] We walk together through the flame, Through falling skies and rising pain, Between the dark, between the light, We choose each other every night. No halos here, no pure escape, Just two cracked hearts that won’t break, If this is war, if this is home, I’ll face the storm, as long as I’m not alone. [Verse: Male] I speak in walls, I think in scars, I measure hope in fallen stars, My hands still shake when silence calls, Like truth echoing off empty walls. But when you look straight through my dust, You don’t ask why — you say “I trust”, And something in me starts to bend, Like maybe I’m not past the end. [Verse: Female] I’ve built my strength from letting go, From seeds that died but dared to grow, I’ve kissed goodbye what couldn’t stay, And learned to bleed in shades of gray. But in your shadow I feel brave, Not something lost, not something saved, Just real, just here, just standing still, Two broken wills against the chill. [Pre-Chorus: Both] We’re not the cure, we’re not the cause, Just souls refusing to pause. [instrumental rock refrain] [Chorus: Both] We walk together through the flame, Through falling skies and rising pain, Between the dark, between the light, We choose each other every night. No halos here, no pure escape, Just two cracked hearts that won’t break, If this is war, if this is home, I’ll face the storm, as long as I’m not alone. [Bridge: Both] If the night comes crashing down, If we’re kings without a crown, Let the thunder hear our names, We were love inside the rain. [Final Chorus: Both] We walk together, scar to scar, Still reaching for who we are, Between the dark, between the light, We don’t need saving — just the fight. No saints, no lies, no perfect tone, Just flesh and truth and blood and bone, If this is all we’re meant to own, I’ll face the storm… As long as I’m not alone. [Outro] [Soft guitar, fade]
