[Verse 1 ] I’m the gray ghost hiding in the second row, Light as a sigh, hushed as a cry, you know. Born in the stars, forged in fire’s breath, I hide in emeralds, I dance with death. Steel-gray skin, but don’t you see much Watch and I’ll slip through your fingers touch [Chorus – building, with bite] Oh, i’m quiet and I can be mean, Stronger than you’d ever dream. Accidental hero in copper’s embrace, I make her unbreakable, I give her my grace. But cross me in dust, in powder, in spark— I’ll bloom into fire, I’ll light up the dark! [Verse 2 ] They call me brittle, say I crack and I break, But I stand in the rockets that the World can’t shake. In see through dark, I let the shadows through, In springs that remember, in things that stay true. I’m the poison you breathe, the disease you can’t cure, A whisper of berylliosis, forever impure. [Chorus] Oh, i’m quiet and I can be mean, Stronger than you’d ever dream. Accidental hero in copper’s embrace, I make her unbreakable, I give her my grace. But cross me in dust, in powder, in spark— I’ll bloom into fire, I’ll light up the dark! [Bridge – slow, almost menacing] I never asked for the spotlight, never wanted the fame, Just a place in the structure, to carry the strain. Yet when the world needs me light, stiff, and severe, I answer the call, though I fill them with fear. [solo] Explosive by nature when you ground me into air, A beauty that kills if you breathe without despair ( never meant to hurt you, but I didn't ever care (Final Chorus – full power, then fading resolve) So bow to beryllium, the lightest of might, The accidental titan that owns the fight. I’m strength in the silence, I’m danger in peace, A paradox metal that never finds release. Yeah, I’m beryllium… quiet and mean… Stronger than you’d ever dream. [Outro – whisper] Touch me wrong… and watch The world [shout] Burn
