[Verse 1] Another night, another empty room Phone in my hand, but nobody comes through I watch the ceiling while the hours disappear Wondering why nobody wants me here There’s an aching underneath my chest Like my heart is begging me to rest I just want somebody I can hold Someone who’ll stay when the nights get cold [Pre-Chorus] But when that little red light turns on I bury everything that’s wrong Take a breath, wipe my eyes And put on my favorite disguise [Chorus] I smile like I’m okay Laugh while I’m breaking every day They see Scarlet shining on the screen But they don’t know what happens in between I say, “I’m fine, don’t worry about me” While my heart is screaming silently I just want somebody who will stay But until then… I’ll smile like I’m okay [Verse 2] With my friends, I’m laughing like before With my family, I hide a little more I don’t want to ruin their happiness So I keep my loneliness inside my chest At the warehouse, pulling PAL to totes Keeping busy so I don’t lose hope Every box keeps my mind occupied But I still feel that emptiness inside [Pre-Chorus] Then my break comes, and I’m alone Staring silently down at my phone Everybody seems to have someone And I’m still searching for my one [Chorus] So I smile like I’m okay Laugh while I’m breaking every day They see Scarlet shining on the screen But they don’t know what happens in between I say, “I’m fine, don’t worry about me” While my heart is screaming silently I just want somebody who will stay But until then… I’ll smile like I’m okay [Bridge — quiet piano] Yuki… Do you think there’s someone out there for me? Someone who’ll see everything I hide And still choose to stay by my side? I’m tired of pretending I don’t care Tired of wishing someone was there I don’t need a perfect fairy tale… I just don’t want to be alone anymore… [Yuki Hime — soft backing vocal] You’re not alone… Even when your heart says you are… I’ll walk beside you through the winter Until you find your morning star… [Final Chorus — full band] I don’t want to smile like I’m okay! I want to finally say I’m hurting today! Behind Scarlet, behind the lights There’s someone fighting through these lonely nights Maybe someday someone will see Every broken, hidden part of me And instead of turning away They’ll take my hand… And choose to stay [Outro] So tonight I’ll watch the falling snow Still alone, but I won’t let hope go Maybe somewhere underneath these stars Someone’s searching for a heart like ours I’m still lonely… I’m still hoping… I’m still here… — Scarlet Crimson Suno/Udio style prompt: Emotional alternative rock, emo pop, dark cinematic electronic rock, melancholic anime-inspired soundtrack, 82 BPM, D minor, intimate androgynous feminine lead vocal, breathy vulnerable verses, emotional powerful chorus, soft piano intro, atmospheric synth pads, clean electric guitar building into distorted guitars, deep bass, dramatic live drums, cinematic strings, subtle heartbeat percussion, haunting backing vocals, explosive final chorus, bittersweet hopeful ending, raw loneliness and hidden depression, no upbeat dance feel.
