Heart On Fire, Hands Still Shaking

[Verse 1]
Eyes wide
Clock says 3 AM
Same doubts
Spinning round again
Breath short
Like the room got small
Scroll phone
But I still feel stalled
[Pre-Chorus]
Every thought a little earthquake
Shaking all the ground I stand on
But under all the aftershocks I hear
A tiny voice that won’t turn off
[Chorus]
My heart on fire
Hands still shaking
But I’m not breaking
Not tonight
I feel the fear
I feel it raging
I’m still here
I’m still alive
I’m walking through this wave alone
But I’m not giving up the fight
My heart on fire
Hands still shaking
I’m scared and I’m still choosing light (oh-woah)
[Verse 2]
Cold sweat
On a crowded train
Fake smile
“Yeah
I’m feeling great”
Deep breath
Count to ten and back
One step
Keeps me on the track
[Pre-Chorus]
Every doubt a little storm cloud
Hovering above my daylight
But somewhere in the thunder I can hear
A stubborn spark that says “hold tight”
[Chorus]
My heart on fire
Hands still shaking
But I’m not breaking
Not tonight
I feel the fear
I feel it raging
I’m still here
I’m still alive
I’m walking through this wave alone
But I’m not giving up the fight
My heart on fire
Hands still shaking
I’m scared and I’m still choosing light (hey)
[Bridge]
If all I move
Is inch by inch
If all I say
Is “I exist”
That’s still a win
Against the dark
Every breath I take
Becomes a spark (yeah)
[Chorus]
My heart on fire
Hands still shaking
But I’m not breaking
Not tonight
I feel the fear
I feel it fading
I’m still here
I’m still alive
I’m walking through this wave alone
But I’m not giving up the fight
My heart on fire
Hands still shaking
I’m scared and I’m still choosing light
(My heart on fire, hands still shaking)
I’m scared and I’m still choosing light

pop, Modern pop ballad that builds into an anthemic hook; soft piano and airy pads in the verses, bright synths and wide reverb on the chorus. Mid-tempo groove with crisp drums entering after the first hook. Stacked gang vocals on the final chorus for a shout-along feel, male vocals leaning intimate at first then lifting into a powerful, gritty top line.
