(Intro): [Soft and eerie instrumental, faint chimes] [Whisper] “In the grip of the fae, I forgot my name…” (Verse 1): I danced on the edge of a dream long past Fading memories, shadows that never last The world felt so distant, wrapped in twilight’s hands Each step just a whisper lost in the sands They called me “Gravel,” small and easy to cast Forgotten like dust, fading so fast But deep in my heart, a fire refused to die A single spark flickered, though I didn’t know why [Faint echoes of fae laughter in the background] (Chorus): But now I dance to my own song, Every step, every leap where I belong The mist can’t hold me, I’ve learned how to see My chains are broken—I’ve set myself free [Whisper]: “I remember… who I am.” (Verse 2:) Shadows whispered lies, but I learned to stand Their magic bound me, but I broke their hand The fae tried to twist what I could be But these sky-blue eyes—they still belong to me Each movement a memory, each twist, a fight Through the rhythm, I reclaim my light I’ll dance through the pain, and out of their snare I’ll leap from the dark, no longer despair [Sound of bare feet dancing on stone] (Chorus:) But now I dance to my own song, Every step, every leap where I belong The mist can’t hold me, I’ve learned how to see My chains are broken—I’ve set myself free [Whisper] “I will not fade… I will not forget.” (Bridge:) [Softer, with rising intensity] Can you hear it? The beat in the night? My heart, my soul, ready to take flight No longer a prisoner, no longer the lost I found the key, no matter the cost [Whispers rise, like a fae’s chant, then break into silence] (Final Chorus:) Now I dance to my own song, Every step, every leap where I belong The mist can’t hold me, I’ve learned how to see My chains are broken—I’ve set myself free [Echoes] “Free… free…” (Outro:) [Soft chimes return, as if the mist is fading away] “I remember now… who I was meant to be.”
