[Intro] (Spoken, over sparse piano and ambient sounds) Masks on, lights low, welcome to the show Tonight, we dress as who we aren’t… or maybe who we are [Verse 1 – Martin] He came in pearls, she wore his tie Laughed at the swap, said “Give it a try” But when he turned, heels clicking clean The room went still—he looked serene The scariest thing wasn’t the dress It was how he wore it like second skin Not borrowed, not broken, not less Just the truth he’d kept tucked in [Verse 2 – Stanley] “Who’s that woman not wearing a mask?” “That’s Stanley,” she said, “don’t ask.” He walked like rhythm, sharp and free Not hiding—just letting you see The scariest thing wasn’t the heels It was how he made silence speak Not pretending, not surreal Just the truth you didn’t seek [Verse 3 – Viggo] “What’ll you be?” his mother asked He paused, then smiled, kept it masked “A superhero,” he said with grace But truth was written on his face Red and gold, stars on blue He didn’t dress up—he broke through The scariest thing wasn’t the dress It was how he stood like he belonged Not a joke, not something less Just Wonder Woman, proud and strong [Bridge – The Crowd Reacts] Is it a phase? Is it a dare? Is it brave? Is it fair? But under the lights, they didn’t flinch Three truths danced, inch by inch [Chorus – All Together] We came in costume, came in grace Wore our hearts on borrowed lace You called it strange, you called it play But we were real in every way The scariest thing you’ll ever see Is someone dressed as who they meant to be [Outro – Whispered] The party ends, the masks come off But some of us… stay on
