Open Arms Open Heart
Progressive rock with alt-rock drive, shifting meters, driving toms, syncopated bass, and expanding guitar layers; verse stays tense and close-mic, pre-chorus opens into stacked harmonies, chorus hits wide with soaring doubles and call-and-response ad-libs. Bridge breaks into a half-time haze with filtered guitars, then final chorus returns bigger with octave vocals, reverse cymbals, and a bright punchy mix. Male vocals, smooth yet intense, intimate in the verses and explosive on the hook., rock, progressive rock, male vocals, dynamic, smooth

Lyrics
If the floor gives way
I’ll still find you there
With both shoes off
And the cold night air
You can come apart
At the seam, at the edge
I’ll keep my name
On the other side of the ledge
No pretty promise
No perfect plan
Just my two hands
And a steady stand
[Pre-Chorus]
Whatever breaks
Whatever bends
I don’t leave
When the moment ends
If you fall hard
I fall too
My whole wide chest
Made room for you
[Chorus]
Whatever happens
I’ll be here
Open arms, open heart
Close enough to hear
Whatever happens
I’ll be near
Open arms, open heart
I’m still here
Open mouth
Say it plain
Open arms
I’ll feel your pain
Open hands
Hold me tight
Open heart
Stay through the night
[Verse 2]
You don’t have to shine
To deserve my gaze
You can wear your storm
Like a stained-out face
I know your silence
I know that look
Like a page half-torn
From a familiar book
If you lose your map
If you lose your nerve
I’ll be the line
You can lean on, word for word
[Pre-Chorus]
Whatever breaks
Whatever burns
I keep my place
When the whole world turns
If you go low
I go down too
My whole wide chest
Made room for you
[Chorus]
Whatever happens
I’ll be here
Open arms, open heart
Close enough to hear
Whatever happens
I’ll be near
Open arms, open heart
I’m still here
Open mouth
Say it plain
Open arms
I’ll feel your pain
Open hands
Hold me tight
Open heart
Stay through the night
[Bridge]
If the sky comes down
On your shaking frame
I’ll say your name
Like a flame
If you want the truth
I’ll bring it slow
If you need a place
You already know
[Final Chorus]
Whatever happens
I’ll be here
Open arms, open heart
Close enough to hear
Whatever happens
I’ll be near
Open arms, open heart
I’m still here
Open mouth
Say it plain
Open arms
I’ll feel your pain
Open hands
Hold me tight
Open heart
Stay through the night
