[Verse 1]
(Soft, trembling voice — intimate, almost whispered)
I’ve been drowning in echoes I can’t escape,
Every breath I take tastes of yesterday’s weight.
Hands shaking, I reach for the light in the haze,
Can you hear my soul, can you see my face?
---
[Pre-Chorus]
(Voice swells with quiet hope, strings rising)
My shadows scream but I won’t fall,
I’ll burn them down, I’ll break these walls.
A thousand tears, I let them go—
Watch me overflow.
---
[Chorus]
(Powerful, open-chested belts with layered harmonies + EDM sidechained pads)
Cleanse me in fire, wash me in rain,
Strip me of sorrow, strip me of pain.
Every scar I’ve worn turns into light—
I’m reborn, I’m alive tonight.
Cleanse me in fire… cleanse me in fire.
---
[Verse 2]
(More emotional — cracked voice, breathy falsetto phrases)
Every fracture inside me begins to sing,
Breaking glass becomes diamond under the flame.
Through the storm I rise with a burning heart,
I found my home in the wreckage and the sparks.
---
[Pre-Chorus 2]
(Drums building, synth sweeps)
My shadows scream but I won’t fall,
I’ll burn them down, I’ll break these walls.
A thousand fears dissolve in gold—
Watch me overflow.
---
[Chorus]
(Full EDM-pop lift: supersaw leads, cinematic percussion, choir pads)
Cleanse me in fire, wash me in rain,
Strip me of sorrow, strip me of pain.
Every scar I’ve worn turns into light—
I’m reborn, I’m alive tonight.
Cleanse me in fire… cleanse me in fire.
---
[Bridge] (Emotional Climax)
(Half-whisper, half-cry — swelling strings & ambient risers)
Let the wind tear my name apart,
Let the flames rewrite my heart.
I surrender, I collide—
This is where the dark dies.
*(Beat pause → Massive EDM Drop with vocal chops: “Fire… Wash me… Fire…”)
---
[Final Chorus]
(Biggest lift: Full choir, soaring synths, flanger sweeps on transitions)
Cleanse me in fire, wash me in rain,
Strip me of sorrow, strip me of pain.
Every scar I’ve worn turns into light—
I’m reborn, I’m alive tonight.
---
[Outro]
(Soft piano + pad fade, whispered vocals)
Cleanse me… cleanse me…
I’m alive… I’m alive.
