Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You fold my hands Like you’re packing them in your coat Kitchen clock ticking Radio fighting the thunder of the world Your suitcase waits By the chair where your father used to read You say “I’ll be gone a while” I say “You stay with me” [Chorus] Our love could walk through sirens Sleep under broken skies Run across burning borders And still look in each other’s eyes If every wall came falling If every town turned scarred We’d write our names in the ashes A love that outlives the war [Verse 2] Letters in ink Smudged where my tears wouldn’t dry Mud on your boots Pressed in the paper like a pressed July You draw the farm The crooked fence The neighbor’s dog You say “If I don’t come home” I write “Don’t finish that thought” [Chorus] Our love could walk through sirens Sleep under broken skies Run across burning borders And still look in each other’s eyes If every wall came falling If every town turned scarred We’d write our names in the ashes A love that outlives the war [Bridge] Someday the brass stops screaming Someday the guns grow cold (oh) Someone will sweep these streets again Hang curtains Hang hope And when you step from that platform Shaking Alive Unsure I’ll hold you like a medal You survived for something more [Chorus] Our love could walk through sirens Sleep under broken skies Run across burning borders And still look in each other’s eyes If every wall came falling If every town turned scarred We’d write our names in the ashes A love that outlives the war We’d write our names in the ashes Our love outlives the war

Warm, cinematic pop ballad with intimate piano and strings that bloom into a sweeping chorus; steady mid-tempo drums and subtle snare rolls support an emotional arc. Male vocals up close and tender at first, then soaring with stacked harmonies in the hook; gentle acoustic guitar doubles the chords, with a swelling orchestral bridge that feels like an old war-film montage., romantic, world
