[INTRO — WHISPERED / PIANO / ATMOSPHERIC] [MALE — WHISPERED] People walk quiet... carrying storms inside their ribcages. They whisper apologies to the mirror for things they never did. [ETHEREAL FEMALE — DISTANT] Oh... [MALE] They bury childhood dreams in the pockets of their past... then wonder why they still feel empty. [LOW GUITAR DRONE RISES] [VERSE 1 — MALE / INTIMATE] They laugh too loud at things that hurt, cry too hard when kindness comes. They fear the light more than the dark 'cause it shows where they're coming undone. I've watched them build whole futures out of unanswered questions... Call it survival. Call it anything but what it really is. [PRE-CHORUS — MALE + FEMALE] [MALE] I've seen the bravest hearts hide behind tired eyes... [FEMALE — SOFT RESPONSE] You're not alone... [MALE] Pretending the world isn't breaking them open. [FEMALE] You're not alone... [MALE] Gentleness called weakness. Cruelty called strength. [FEMALE — RISING] But I still see you. [CHORUS — MASSIVE / MALE + FEMALE] [MALE] YOU ARE A GALAXY WEARING SKIN OF STARS— [FEMALE — SOARING] YOU ARE A GALAXY LIGHTING UP THE DARK— [MALE] A universe singing through a fragile heart. [FEMALE] You call yourself small... [MALE + FEMALE] BUT I'VE WATCHED YOU BURN— BRIGHTER THAN THE GRIEF YOU'VE CARRIED THIS FAR. [MALE] In the silence between breaths... [FEMALE] You are whole. [MALE] In the breaking... [FEMALE] You are more than you know. [MALE + FEMALE — HUGE HARMONY] YOU ARE A GALAXY WEARING SKIN OF STARS. [POST-CHORUS — ETHEREAL] [FEMALE — SOFT] You are... more than you know... [MALE — WHISPER] More than you know... [DROP VERSE — EVERYTHING FALLS AWAY] [MALE — NEAR WHISPER] And when you fall apart... you do it gently... like you're afraid to inconvenience the ground. You apologize to the night for the weight of your tears... [FEMALE — DISTANT] Don't... [MALE] You forget... even the moon needs the darkness... [FEMALE — SOFT] To become light. [ASCENSION BRIDGE — SLOW BUILD] [MALE] Rise... [FEMALE] Rise... [MALE] Like the dawn that refuses to die. [FEMALE] Rise like the fire you tried to hide. [MALE] Rise like the truth shaking dust from your bones. [FEMALE — STRONGER] The light in you was never a lie. [MALE] The fire in you was waiting for a voice. [FEMALE] Then let it speak. [MALE + FEMALE] The world is wide— [FEMALE — SOARING] BUT YOU ARE WIDER STILL. [FINAL CHORUS — FULL BAND / ORCHESTRAL / HUGE] [MALE] YOU ARE A GALAXY WEARING SKIN OF STARS— [FEMALE] YOU ARE THE LIGHT THAT SURVIVED THE DARK— [MALE] A universe singing through a fragile heart. [FEMALE] You call yourself small... [MALE + FEMALE] BUT I'VE WATCHED YOU BURN— BRIGHTER THAN THE GRIEF YOU'VE CARRIED THIS FAR. [MALE] In the silence between breaths— [FEMALE] YOU ARE WHOLE! [MALE] In the breaking— [FEMALE] YOU ARE MORE THAN YOU KNOW! [MALE + FEMALE — STACKED] YOU ARE A GALAXY— YOU ARE A GALAXY— YOU ARE A GALAXY— WEARING SKIN OF STARS! [BREAKDOWN — CRUSHING] [MALE — GRAVELLY] DON'T CALL YOURSELF SMALL. [FEMALE — SOARING] YOU WERE NEVER SMALL. [MALE] DON'T BURY YOUR LIGHT. [FEMALE] LET IT BURN. [MALE + FEMALE] LET IT BURN! [FINAL CLIMAX] [MALE + FEMALE] YOU ARE A GALAXY! YOU ARE A GALAXY! YOU ARE A GALAXY WEARING SKIN OF STARS! [OUTRO — PIANO / FADING HARMONIES] [MALE — WHISPER] And the night... [FEMALE — SOFT] bows quietly... [MALE + FEMALE] knowing it could never match your light.
