Heartlines

{subtle vinyl crackle, warm upright piano chords} (Ooh,

yeah) We still stand tall Through the winter rains {distant

filtered snare rolls}

Started with a pocket full of empty dreams

Staring at the ceiling,

sewing up the broken seams

They told me I would stumble,

told me I would fail

But every single scar just became a better tale

{crisp boom-bap drum beat kicks in} And when the shadows try to

stretch across the floor (Yeah) I just remember what I'm fighting for

{vocal swells and rising synth pad} Even in the dark

we find a way to shine

Taking every step,

one day at a time

Yeah, they tried to bury us beneath the cold stone

But we grew through the cracks and made it on our own

{uplifting choir and full rhythm section} I remember cold nights,

sleeping on the floor

Dreaming of the moment I could open up the door

Now the path is clear,

even when the wind is blowing

Every seed of doubt only kept my spirit growing

{rhythm section thins out slightly} We fought the heavy currents And we

made it to the shore (We made it)

We don't have to hide anymore {solemn piano and soaring electric guitar

lead}

Even in the dark

we find a way to shine

Taking every step,

one day at a time

Yeah, they tried to bury us beneath the cold stone

But we grew through the cracks

and made it on our own {full climax,

energetic beat}

We made it on our own (Yeah,

we did)

We still stand tall...

{drums fade out,

solo upright piano and vinyl crackle}
