[LYRICS] [Intro | warm bass and live drums enter, Hammond organ undertone, tasteful electric guitar, clean and distinct, gently building] [Verse 1 | warm soulful male vocal with gentle grain, calm and melodic, intimate, close mic] The burden cracks open— light pours through the seam, I don't hold back, I go in, into the part that makes me flinch, I stop bracing, I give myself over— nothing left to guard. [Chorus | calm melodic vocal, light gospel backing harmonies, driving bass and clear live drums, organ swelling, the repeated tag as hook] Rapture without trying— the light I'd buried shines through me, I lose myself, I am the flame, and the whole world catches light, rapture without trying, [Verse 2 | warm calm soulful male vocal, steady and unhurried, intimate] I haven't slept, I don't want to, the work won't let me go— I know how this must look, but in here it's the first warmth in years. [Chorus | calm sustained vocal, fuller gospel harmonies, punchy drums and warm bass, organ rising] Rapture without trying— the light I'd buried shines through me, I lose myself, I am th e flame, and the whole world catches light, rapture without trying, [Bridge | intimate calm male vocal, sparse — bass pulse and soft organ, near-breakdown, room to breathe] I longed for this. I looked everywhere that kept me comfortable— it was never there. It only came once I let it cost me, in the work that nearly broke me. You can't reach for it. You give yourself, and it comes. [Chorus — Final | calm melodic vocal, controlled, full band with prominent drums, bass and organ, gospel harmonies, uplifting peak without overload] Rapture without trying— the light I'd buried shines through me, I lose myself, I am the flame, and the whole world catches light, rapture without trying, [Outro | soft calm vocal, gentle bass, drums and organ fading] Rapture, rapture— rapture without trying... (the flame, the flame...) [end]
