[Intro:] [Soft Intro] [Piano and ambient synths fade in gently] [Instrumental] A light ripple under dawn’s breath --- [Verse 1:] [Female Vocal – soft, intimate] You held my hand where the lilies bloom, But I slipped through like afternoon light Days curled up like paper moons Floating off into the night --- [Pre-Chorus:] [Building Intensity] I whisper names I’ve outgrown Wade deeper into the unknown My heart’s a raft and it’s drifting, But something in me’s still lifting --- [Chorus:] [Catchy Hook] [Female Vocal – stronger, dynamic] Life runs wild like a river dream Soft bends, then the brutal streams I scream inside the waterfall But I don’t break, I survive it all Silver skin on shattered stone— This is how I’ve come to know my own --- [Post-Chorus:] [Melodic Interlude] Echoes where the silence clings, Carried off by silver wings --- [Verse 2:] [Female Vocal – mid-tone, contemplative] He said forever in a skipping rock It sank with ease—I watched the shock Time’s not cruel, just inconsistent Moments press like fingerprints --- [Pre-Chorus:] [Tense Underscore] Scars like ripples never sleep Still I dive, still I leap Nothing holds, but I keep trying Even waterfalls start by crying --- [Chorus:] [Female Vocal – more grit, slight distortion] Life runs wild like a river dream Soft bends, then the brutal streams I scream inside the waterfall But I don’t break, I survive it all Silver skin on shattered stone— This is how I’ve come to know my own --- [Bridge:] [Emotional Bridge] [Whisper vocals build to belt] If I drown, let it be in grace No regrets, no time to waste The tide is fierce, but so am I Carved in current, I still fly --- [Break:] [Percussion Break] [Waterfall sounds + layered harmonies] --- [Final Chorus:] [Climactic] [Choir-style backing harmonies] Life runs wild like a river dream Soft bends, then the brutal streams I scream inside the waterfall But I don’t break, I survive it all Silver skin on shattered stone— This is how I’ve come to know my own --- [Outro:] [Powerful Outro] [Slow fade out, solo piano] Float with me where silence grows A river never truly goes
