Lyrics
Parentheses = whispered BVs / verb-tails for FX. Monosyllable bias preserved; fragility ↔ heat axis intact; repetition built for looping and crowd call-backs.
Verse 1
Bloom, bruise—
we still move.
Hands shake,
hearts prove.
Pre-Chorus
Don’t run.
Stay near.
My palms,
no fear.
Chorus
If you break,
I won’t blink—
I’ll lift each
shard and seam.
Hold you close,
let it link—
piece by piece,
back to me.
Verse 2
Weight yours,
lean mine.
No snap,
just line.
Build
Breathe in,
lights fade,
this beat
won’t cave.
(keep—)
(stay—)
Drop / Hook
Take me,
make me—
I’m here tonight.
Move fast,
no past—
lock in the light.
Post-Hook – Whisper Stack
(stay)
(we mend)
(again, again)
(breathe)
(hold)
(amen)
Bridge
No vows—
just skin.
No words—
we spin.
If you fall,
I’m in.
Final Chorus
If you break,
I won’t blink—
I’ll lift each
shard and seam.
Warm this fire,
edge to brink—
piece by piece,
back to clean.
\[Outro]
Keep close.
Stay here.
Two hands.
No fear.
