[EtherealWave257:] [– Ambient / atmospheric / cinematic emo] [– Washed-out pads, distant vocals, reverb-heavy] [– Feels like he’s underwater, losing the fight] [ELIROBB] [– Grounded, emotional but strong] [– Clean vocals building into passionate belts] [– Minimal drums at first → full drums + strings in final chorus] [– You sound steady. Not perfect. But steady.] [Round 1 – He’s getting knocked down] [Round 2 – You’re speaking life into him] [Final Round – You both stand up together] [Intro – EtherealWave257 (Male) (Emo/Rock voice) (soft, distant)] I can feel the ropes behind me Breathing heavy, losing ground Fear’s got both hands around me And it won’t let me get out I hear the crowd but they don’t know What it’s like inside my head Every doubt becomes a shadow Every hope feels almost dead [Verse 1 – EtherealWave257] I swung first but I’m exhausted Every punch just hits the air I believed I’d beat this monster But it’s stronger than my prayer Tell me why I keep on trying When I’m bleeding out inside Every time I say I’m fighting It feels more like I’m just surviving [Pre-Chorus – EtherealWave257] I don’t know if I can stand I don’t know who I am If this is what faith looks like Then I don’t understand [Chorus – EtherealWave257 (fragile)] I’m losing to the fear again It’s got me on the ground Every voice inside my head Is telling me I’m done now If I let go of the fight Would anybody care? Or am I just another soul That disappeared in prayer? [Verse 2 – ELIROBB (Male) (you enter steady, clear)] Hey — Look at me. You’re not finished yet. I’ve been where you’re standing With my back against the wall I’ve felt the same hands shaking Like I’d never rise at all You think this is the ending But it’s only round three Fear is loud, I get it But it doesn’t get to keep you [Pre-Chorus – ELIROBB] I know the voice that says you’re done I know the weight that makes you run But you’re still breathing — that means something And I’m not leaving — hear me coming [Chorus – Dual (his fragile + your strong)] You’re not losing to the fear tonight Not while I’m still here Yeah it knocks you down sometimes But it doesn’t own your years You don’t have to fight alone You don’t have to prove you’re strong If you forget who you are I’ll remind you all night long [Bridge – Dialogue style] [EtherealWave257 (breaking):] What if I’m too far gone? [ELIROBB:] You’re not. [EtherealWave257:] What if I don’t belong? [ELIROBB:] You do. [EtherealWave257:] What if I lose again? [ELIROBB (strong):] Then we stand up again. [Final Chorus – Huge, cinematic] We’re not losing to the fear tonight It doesn’t get the crown It can scream inside our heads But it won’t take us down We’ve been bruised and we’ve been cracked But we’re still breathing air And even when we’re trembling We’re still standing there [Outro – Soft, unified] If you fall, I’m in your corner If I break, you’re in mine We don’t win by being fearless We win by getting up each time
