PIROVÉ — THE LAST STAR [INTRO — FEMALE, VERY SOFT / MYSTERIOUS] They told us every soul was born beneath a star… But last night… I watched one fall. [THREE-NOTE SIGNATURE MOTIF] FEMALE, whispered: The last star… [MALE, distant / low] Don’t follow it. [FEMALE] Why? [MALE] Because it remembers what we forgot. ⸻ [VERSE 1 — FEMALE] I walked beyond the sleeping town, where silver rivers floated down. The moon was hanging in the trees, like broken glass upon the leaves. I followed fire through the night, a falling spark without a light. And where it touched the frozen ground, a door of golden light was found. I should have turned… I stepped inside. And saw a world on the other side. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS — FEMALE / MALE] FEMALE: Who are you? MALE: I don’t know. FEMALE: Where’s your star? MALE: I have no glow. FEMALE: Every soul has one above. MALE: Maybe mine was never loved. [PAUSE] FEMALE: Then why does it feel like I’ve known you? ⸻ [CHORUS — FEMALE LEAD / MALE ANSWERS] FEMALE: THE LAST STAR… MALE: IS STILL ALIVE. FEMALE: BURNING SOMEWHERE… MALE: BEYOND THE SKY. BOTH: IF THE NIGHT CAN HIDE THE LIGHT, WE’LL CROSS THE DARK TO FIND IT TONIGHT. THE LAST STAR… WE WON’T LET GO. FOLLOW THE FIRE… WHEREVER IT GLOWS. ⸻ [POST-CHORUS — SIGNATURE HOOK] FEMALE: Last star… Last star… MALE: Still alive… Still alive… BOTH: LOOK UP… LOOK UP… [THREE-NOTE MOTIF] ⸻ [VERSE 2 — MALE, DEEP / VELVETY] I’ve crossed a thousand silent years, through kingdoms built from dust and tears. I’ve watched the oceans touch the moon, I’ve heard the dying forests sing. They called me keeper of the flame, then took my face and stole my name. I learned to live without a sky, until I saw your light tonight. FEMALE, soft: Why did you wait? MALE: For someone brave enough to stay. FEMALE: And if the star is gone? MALE: Then we’ll become the light. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS — CALL AND RESPONSE] FEMALE: What if we can’t find it? MALE: Then we make our own. FEMALE: What if the world is ending? MALE: Then we won’t end alone. BOTH: Maybe every falling star is just a light that lost its way. Maybe every broken heart can find the sky again. ⸻ [CHORUS — BOTH, BIGGER] THE LAST STAR… IS STILL ALIVE. BURNING SOMEWHERE… BEYOND THE SKY. IF THE NIGHT CAN HIDE THE LIGHT, WE’LL CROSS THE DARK TO FIND IT TONIGHT. THE LAST STAR… WE WON’T LET GO. FOLLOW THE FIRE… WHEREVER IT GLOWS. ⸻ [POST-CHORUS — BIG MELODIC HOOK] LAST STAR… STILL ALIVE… LAST STAR… IN THE NIGHT… LOOK UP… LOOK UP… WE’RE NOT ALONE. ⸻ [BRIDGE — MUSIC COLLAPSES] [NO KICK / NO BASS] [FEMALE — CLOSE] What if we find it… and it’s not in the sky? [MALE — VERY LOW] Where else could it be? [FEMALE] Inside us. [LONG PAUSE] MALE: Then why does the world feel so dark? [FEMALE] Because we forgot how to shine. [ONE HEARTBEAT] MALE: Take my hand. [FEMALE] I am. [COMPLETE SILENCE] MALE, almost whispered: Look up. [THREE-NOTE MOTIF — ALONE] ⸻ [FINAL CHORUS — FULL PIROVÉ POWER] THE LAST STAR… IS STILL ALIVE! WE ARE THE FIRE THAT LIGHTS THE SKY! NO MORE RUNNING, NO MORE FEAR. IF YOU CAN SEE ME… I AM HERE. THE LAST STAR… WE WON’T LET GO. WE ARE THE LIGHT WE WERE SEARCHING FOR. THE LAST STAR… IS IN OUR EYES. TWO LOST SOULS… ONE ENDLESS SKY. ⸻ [FINAL POST-CHORUS — BOTH] LAST STAR… LAST STAR… STILL ALIVE… STILL ALIVE… LOOK UP… LOOK UP… DON’T CLOSE YOUR EYES. LAST STAR… LAST STAR… WE ARE THE LIGHT. ⸻ [OUTRO — FEMALE, VERY SOFT] The city is waking… The sky is turning gold… [PAUSE] I look beside me… He’s gone. [LONG SILENCE] She looks up. [THREE-NOTE MOTIF] FEMALE, whisper: The last star… is still alive. [FINAL MALE WHISPER, DISTANT] Look up. [END]
