Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You called me "kid" the first day War paint on your grin I rolled my eyes Said "Master" You let the chaos in Running through the hangar Boots loud on the floor You walked too fast on purpose So I'd chase you through the roar [Chorus] Snips and Skyguy Laughing in the crossfire Jokes over comlinks Dust in our hair You taught me how to jump before I learned to land Said "When you’re scared Swing anyway I’m there" We were bright We were burning On the edge of a storm we didn’t see Snips and Skyguy Turning Into someone you could never be [Verse 2] You paced outside the council Fist pressed to the wall I saw the crack before the fall When they chose pride over us all You said "You’re making a mistake" As I walked away alone I left my beads on the staircase But I still heard you on the clone comms [Chorus] Snips and Skyguy Laughing in the crossfire Now it’s echoes in a shattered hall You taught me how to jump before I learned to land But who caught you when you started to fall? We were bright We were burning Thought the stars would bend for you and me Snips and Skyguy Learning That trust can break like glass in gravity [Bridge] I felt the sky go quiet Like a saber pulled from light Your presence turned to static Cold metal on the other side Years like hyperspace Stretching blue and thin Until I faced that broken mask And saw your eyes still in there (oh) [Chorus] Snips and Skyguy Ghosts inside the crossfire Ash on our armor Names in the dust You taught me how to jump Now I have to let you go I will remember when you were someone I could trust We were bright We were burning A wildfire they never understood Snips and Skyguy Turning Dark and light into something still half-good

Cinematic alt-pop ballad with male/female duet, airy pads, distant war drums, and echoing guitar swells. Verses stay hushed and intimate, drums pulsing like a heartbeat; chorus blooms wide with stacked harmonies and a soaring string line. Bridge strips to piano and subtle choir before a final, powerful chorus that cuts off on a poignant held note.
