Little Hearts of Fire

metal, Epic metal ballad with orchestral swells and children’s choir; male vocals start fragile over piano and soft strings, then rise into distorted guitars and huge drums, Choruses explode with layered harmonies and high-register belts, children’s voices doubling the hook, Final chorus adds full choir, cymbal crashes, and sustained guitar leads for a cathartic, almost cinematic climax, orchestral, emotional, ballad

[Verse 1] Tiny shoes by the doorway One is turned on its side Breakfast bowls still on the table And you’re gone from my life I still hear your small laughter In the clatter of the day Every quiet in this house now Screams your name anyway [Chorus] Little hearts of fire How did you burn so bright Then fade? You were my whole choir Every prayer I never prayed I would tear apart the sky Just to hold you for a while Little hearts of fire I will carry every spark of your smile [Verse 2] On the wall Your crooked drawings Sun and house A crooked tree All the futures you were planning Now they’re hanging over me I stack toys like fragile altars Whisper stories to the night If you’re somewhere in the shadows Let my hurting be your light [Chorus] Little hearts of fire How did you burn so bright Then fade? You were my whole choir Every prayer I never prayed I would tear apart the sky Just to hold you for a while Little hearts of fire I will carry every spark of your smile [Bridge] If the storm won’t stop Let it fall on me I will stand I will stand Where you used to be Every tear Every scar Every broken Bleeding part Is a gate Is a star And it leads to where you are (oh) [Chorus] Little hearts of fire How did you burn so bright Then fade? You were my whole choir Every prayer I never prayed I will tear apart the sky Just to hear you laugh again Little hearts of fire You are written in the steel of my veins
