Brighter Than Darkness (Chronological Version) (Intro - Warm acoustic guitar and slow bass pulsations) (Verse 1 - The Encounter and the Magic) The first time I saw you, the first time you kissed me I felt this feeling of peace wash over me, everything changed This feeling that I was somebody in your eyes, finally You make my eyes shine, you give me back the taste of tomorrow You cleanse my heart of its darkness, of its pain I told you, you make me want to love again, without fear. (Chorus - Entrance of pop synthesizers and rhythmic bass) From the first time you kissed me, the world lit up I felt our hearts meet in their truth And this light that surrounds us is stronger and brighter Than the darkest shadow, it is alive Whether we are in the fog or in the light Together, we will move forward. (Verse (2 - The Trap of Perfection) To attract your attention, I wanted to transform my image. I Photoshop my photos, I modify my own face. I try to become a more perfect version in your eyes. But in trying to do that, I became repulsive, it was awful. It had the opposite effect, it pushed us apart, separated us. So I erased everything to become myself again in my authenticity. (Chorus - Maximum pop rhythm, energetic space synths) From the first time you kissed me, the world lit up. I felt our hearts meet in their truth. And this light that surrounds us is stronger and brighter than the darkest shadow, it is alive. Whether we are in the fog or in the light, together, we will move forward. (Verse 3 - The Mirror of Flaws) Then, during the visit, I perceived your pain, your hidden suffering. Your soul told me because your heart wanted to conceal it. Betrayal And rejection, that's what I read in your secret words. And it touched me deeply, it shook me to my core. Because I have the same flaws as you, the same cracks. Our wounds are recognizable through the armor. (Bridge - Intimate slowing down, stripped-down guitar and close vocals) So I'll say it again, with you I am on fire, at peace, in light. We will cross all the shadows, all the barriers, even the darkest, even those without light, even the dead ends. Because our light together is brighter than the darkness we've experienced. This emotion gives me strength, the desire to move forward, the desire to persevere, to be patient, the desire to love. (High-energy electro-pop synthesizer solo, drum build-up) (Final Chorus - Explosion of energy, voices unite) From the first time you kissed me, the world lit up. I felt our hearts meet in their Truth. And this light that surrounds us is stronger and brighter than the darkest shadow; it is alive! Whether we are in the fog or in the light, together we will move forward! (Outro - Gradual fading, bass and guitar notes) Our light together... Brighter than the darkness. At peace. Without speaking.
