[Verse] City's alive with flashing beams Footsteps echo like static dreams Shadows twist where the neon gleams Heartbeats sync with the music streams [Verse 2] Glitter rains down like falling stars Electric feels in the crowded bars We’re satellites orbiting bizarre No boundary here we're who we are [Chorus] Raise your hands let the rhythm bite Spin like the earth kissing the night Fire in your veins sparks in your sight Dance till the dawn takes back the fight [Verse 3] Faces blur like a painted haze Timeless moves in a smoky maze Lanterns ignite in lightning's blaze Hearts colliding in burning craze [Bridge] Sweat drips wild we crash collide Lost in waves won't stop the ride Time's a thief but we'll decide To outshine moments we can’t hide [Chorus] Raise your hands let the rhythm bite Spin like the earth kissing the night Fire in your veins sparks in your sight Dance till the dawn takes back the fight

[Instrumental]

[Verse] Shadows creep, silent scream, spirit's cracked veneer, Navigatin' voids, black flames, smoke in the mirror, Ravens in my chest, wings beatin' heavy pain, Cursed with the weight of chains forged in acid rain. [Chorus] Fangs in the moonlight, echoes call my name, Streets bleed secrets, death whispers in the flame, Jagged paths lead where nightmares play their game, Crawlin’ through this void, nothin’ feels the same. [Verse 2] Concrete broken, spine snapped, city got no soul, Stagnant waters ripple, reflections swallow whole, Clock ticks in reverse, time bends, puts me on hold, Scriptures written in dark, wisdom turns to coal. [Bridge] Heavy’s the crown of a fallen mind drowned, Teeth grind on the truth, til it’s seeded in the ground, Roots of despair grow, devour the profound, Burnt dreams choke air, no hope to be found. [Chorus] Fangs in the moonlight, echoes call my name, Streets bleed secrets, death whispers in the flame, Jagged paths lead where nightmares play their game, Crawlin’ through this void, nothin’ feels the same. [Verse 3] The abyss beckons, arms stretch to the abyss, Reaper trade secrets in exchange for a wish, But karma steady stalkin’, no escape from the twist, Fire in the lungs, devil’s breath on the wrist.

[Verse] The lockers slam a final time Dreams are packed with ties to climb The hallway echoes our last goodbye We chase the stars and touch the sky [Verse 2] Caps in hand hearts on fire Every step builds our empire Photographs freeze time for good Can’t rewind even if we could [Chorus] This is our moment let it sing All together as the last bell rings The future calls with fearless wings We are the bold tomorrow brings [Verse 3] Teachers watched they always knew That we’d take off and see it through The cracks in walls don’t slow our pace The world can’t wait to see our face [Bridge] The night is ours under the moon Whispers of change come so soon We stand tall no room to fear The horizon shifts but we’re still here [Chorus] This is our moment let it sing All together as the last bell rings The future calls with fearless wings We are the bold tomorrow brings

[Verse] Feet are moving hearts ignite Underneath the starry night Twist and turn in time so wild Every step feels free and styled [Chorus] Spin me round don't let me go Feel the heat begin to grow In this blaze you take me higher We’re alive in dancing fire [Verse 2] Shadows echo every beat Rhythms pour out from our feet Sweat is shining passion’s clear Lost in music's atmosphere [Bridge] Let the sparks jump in the air Feel the rhythm everywhere Close your eyes let moments fly We’re the embers burning high [Chorus] Spin me round don't let me go Feel the heat begin to grow In this blaze you take me higher We’re alive in dancing fire [Outro] Ashes cool but hearts remain Dreams of fire will spark again Endless music endless night Life’s a dance in blazing light

[Verse 1] In the darkened garden where shadows twist, I bloomed like a rose, though my soul was missed. Your touch was the storm that rattled my skin, But I survived, though the war was within. [Pre-Chorus] Each petal that fell was a memory erased, A tear that I shed in a silenced embrace. But the thorns that remain, they make me whole, In the light of my pain, I found my soul. [Chorus] I rise like the dawn, though the night tried to claim, A fire in my chest, with no one to blame. I am the bloom in the storm’s fierce embrace, A survivor reborn, leaving no trace. [Verse 2] The whispers of sorrow, they echoed so loud, Yet I stood tall, though I stumbled through crowds. You thought you could crush me, but you were wrong, For I am the silence, and I am the song. [Pre-Chorus] I am the moon that fades but never dies, A reflection of strength beneath weary skies. The pain that you planted is no longer mine, I hold the stars and I reclaim the divine. [Chorus] I rise like the dawn, though the night tried to claim, A fire in my chest, with no one to blame. I am the bloom in the storm’s fierce embrace, A survivor reborn, leaving no trace. [Bridge] In the silence, I learned to speak, In the shadows, I found the peak. The chains that once bound me, they fall to the floor, And I stand unbroken, forever more. [Chorus] I rise like the dawn, though the night tried to claim, A fire in my chest, with no one to blame. I am the bloom in the storm’s fierce embrace, A survivor reborn, leaving no trace. [Outro] Now I am the light, I am the flame, From the ashes, I rise, untouched by shame. I am the fury in the silent bloom, A survivor, untamed, no longer consumed.

[Verse 1] (Younger female voice) I was just a child, you were supposed to be my guide, But you turned your back, and left me to hide. You told me I was safe, that you'd never let me fall, But you walked away, never cared at all. [Pre-Chorus] (Younger female voice) I called your name, but you never turned around, Left me in the silence, where no one could be found. You didn’t hear me, didn’t see the tears, Left me all alone with my childhood fears. [Chorus] (Younger female voice) You never heard me, you never saw my pain, I gave you my trust, and you left me in the rain. I was just a girl, asking you to stay, But you let me go, and I’ll never be the same. [Verse 2] (Younger female voice) I tried to be strong, tried to carry on, But you took the light, and everything felt wrong. I needed you then, but you were never there, Now I’m left with a heart full of despair. [Pre-Chorus] (Younger female voice) I called your name, but you never turned around, Left me in the silence, where no one could be found. You didn’t hear me, didn’t see the tears, Left me all alone with my childhood fears. [Chorus] (Younger female voice) You never heard me, you never saw my pain, I gave you my trust, and you left me in the rain. I was just a girl, asking you to stay, But you let me go, and I’ll never be the same. [Bridge] (Younger female voice, quieter) Didn’t you see? Did you feel me cry? I needed you then, but you just said goodbye. Now I'm left with this weight on my chest, Wondering why I wasn’t enough, why I was less. [Chorus] (Younger female voice) You never heard me, you never saw my pain, I gave you my trust, and you left me in the rain. I was just a girl, asking you to stay, But you let me go, and I’ll never be the same. [Outro] (Younger female voice, softly) You never heard me, you never saw me fall, And now I’m left with nothing at all.

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1] (Male voice) I see you in the silence, your face, your smile, But you're a ghost in the shadows, gone for a while. The bed's too cold without your warmth beside, And I can't escape the emptiness inside. [Verse 2] (Female voice) I whisper your name, but it’s lost in the air, The echoes of a love that’s no longer there. Your touch is a memory, a fading flame, Now I'm left with nothing but the pain. [Chorus] (Both voices) These tears are ashes, burning through my soul, I can't breathe, can’t move, can’t feel whole. The world is falling, but I can’t let you go, In the wreckage of my heart, I’m drowning alone. [Bridge] (Male voice) I gave you everything, and now I’ve lost it all, (Female voice) You were my anchor, and now I fall. (Both voices) Each breath is heavier than the last, As I watch the pieces of us turn to glass. [Chorus] (Both voices) These tears are ashes, burning through my soul, I can’t breathe, can’t move, can’t feel whole. The world is falling, but I can’t let you go, In the wreckage of my heart, I’m drowning alone. [Outro] (Male voice) You left, but I’m still here in the dark, (Female voice) Searching for the light that’s gone, (Both voices) We’re both broken, forever scarred, And in these ashes, I’m still torn apart.

[Verse 1] (Male voice) I still hear your footsteps in the hall, The silence now feels louder than it all. The air is thick with memories we made, But with each passing moment, they begin to fade. [Verse 2] (Female voice) I keep waiting for you to walk through that door, But I’m left here wondering what I’m waiting for. Your smile, your warmth, they’re slipping away, The echo of your love, starting to decay. [Chorus] (Both voices) Fading light, you’re slipping through my hands, Like a dream that disappears as I stand. I try to hold on, but you’re too far gone, And I’m left in the dark, trying to carry on. [Bridge] (Female voice) All that’s left are the pieces of you, (Male voice) Scattered memories, broken but true. (Both voices) I keep searching for your voice in the night, But the shadows keep stealing the fading light. [Chorus] (Both voices) Fading light, you’re slipping through my hands, Like a dream that disappears as I stand. I try to hold on, but you’re too far gone, And I’m left in the dark, trying to carry on. [Outro] (Male voice) You’re a memory now, but you’ll never leave, (Female voice) In my heart, I’ll hold on and never grieve.
