[Intro - atmospheric 80s build] Dreams don't knock when doors stay closed Hope is hiding where no one goes [Verse 1 - bright synth groove] Woke up drowning in the static Mirror cracked but still dramatic Tired eyes and neon skin Choose the dark or let light in [Pre-Chorus - rising chords] Every fall leaves a spark behind Every tear sharpens how we shine [Chorus - anthemic, soaring vocals] Grim or grin it's mine to spin Flip the fear and let joy win On this stage I’m born again Grim or grin — I choose the grin [Verse 2 - steady rhythm returns] Tried to dance with heavy chains Laughed through loss and danced through pain Heartbeat louder than the doubt Turn it up and drown it out [Pre-Chorus - rising again] Every no taught me how to fight Every night gave birth to light [Chorus - repeat] Grim or grin it's mine to spin Flip the fear and let joy win On this stage I’m born again Grim or grin — I choose the grin [Bridge - dreamy breakdown with echo effects] When the shadows press too near I rewrite the atmosphere Pulse in sync with every star Who I am is who you are [Final Chorus - full production burst] Grim or grin it's mine to spin Flip the fear and let joy win On this stage I’m born again Grim or grin — I choose the grin [Outro - slow fade, shimmering arpeggios] Choose the grin (yeah choose the grin) Let joy in (come let it in) [End]
