Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Velvet curtain
Dust in the beam
I lace my heartbeat
Into the seam
Powder and polish
Mask on my doubt
Practice a whisper
Turn it to shouts
[Pre-Chorus]
Can they see my hands shaking?
Can they hear my name break? (oh)
Every fear I’ve been faking
Burns like a staircase
[Chorus]
It’s all stageblood and starlight
Sweat on my collar
Gold on my eyes
I fall
I fly
In the same night
Laugh till I almost cry
If this is all just a story
Let them remember my lines
I’ll trade my shame for the glory
Bathed in the blinding signs
[Verse 2]
Tight little costume
Pins in my side
Smile like a weapon
Sharpened by pride
Inside I’m pacing
Miles in a cage
Outside I’m perfect
Written for stage
[Pre-Chorus]
Every spotlight is hunting
Every heartbeat’s a cue (hey)
But I’m tired of just acting
I want the truth to come through
[Chorus]
It’s all stageblood and starlight
Sweat on my collar
Gold on my eyes
I fall
I fly
In the same night
Laugh till I almost cry
If this is all just a story
Let them remember my lines
I’ll trade my shame for the glory
Bathed in the blinding signs
[Bridge]
What if I miss my mark?
What if they see the scars?
What if the grand illusion
Falls apart?
Or maybe the real magic
Is shaking and still stay
Taking a final bow
For making it through the play (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
It’s all stageblood and starlight
Sweat on my collar
Gold on my eyes
I fall
I fly
In the same night
Laugh till I almost cry
If this is all just a story
Write my name high in the sky
I’ll turn my fear into glory
Living this beautiful lie

Big cinematic pop ballad with male vocals; opening verse sits over sparse piano and swelling strings, then drums, low brass, and choir bloom into an anthemic chorus. Dynamic push-pull between hushed, almost whispered lines and full-belt, reverb-kissed hooks, with timpani hits and cymbal swells heightening the drama. Final chorus adds octave-doubled vocals and soaring string countermelodies for a goosebump climax.
