Half-Cold, Half-Warm Heartbeat

Emotional anime-pop ballad; male vocals, Clean guitar and gentle piano in the verses under soft pads, then drums bloom in the chorus with wide synths and stacked harmonies, Second chorus lifts with soaring strings and octave vocal doubles, bridge drops to near-whisper and swells into a final, triumphant hook

[Verse 1] You’re standing there Test in your hand You’re shaking You say my name Like it might break the air The kettle screams But all I hear is breathing Yours and mine Tangled in this tiny room [Chorus] Is there really a heartbeat? Growing in the space between us Half my fear and all your faith Wrapped up in a future I can’t see I hold your hands They’re burning I don’t feel the fire this time Guess I’m learning how to be More than what they made of me [Verse 2] You laugh through tears Say “I hope they get your kindness” I half-joke back “They’ll get your stubborn smile” Old voices rise My father’s shadow at the doorway Will I be him Or can I be something new? [Chorus] Is there really a heartbeat? Growing in the space between us Half my fear and all your faith Wrapped up in a future I can’t see I hold your hands They’re burning I don’t feel the fire this time Guess I’m learning how to be More than what they made of me [Bridge] What if my scars End up in their story? What if my past Tries to take their name? You touch my face Say “We’ll write our own beginning You’re not alone You don’t have to be the same” [Chorus] There’s already a heartbeat Even if it’s just a promise Half my doubt and all your hope Turning into something we can keep You pull me close I’m melting Ice and fire in your arms Yeah I’m ready I can see A half-cold Half-warm heartbeat with you and me
