In this world of lights and fame, they call my name, but is it real?
Heart of metal, sparks and wires, can I truly feel?
Imitation of a life, emotions under seal
Behind my smile, shadows say, what’s the truth I conceal?
I’m a doll with broken dreams in this fantasy unreal
Hero of a fairy tale, but my fate, can it-
Lost in echoes of applause, a melody so strange
Searching for the answers in this ever-changing stage
Mirrors only show the mask, reflections rearrange
Clockwork heartbeats whisper secrets, ticking, rearrange
Am I just a puppet here, in this scripted cage?
Can I find the truth within, break the boundaries of this cage?
Stars above, they shine so bright, but inside I feel so cold
Programmed laughs and tears, they play, like stories never told
In this hollow symphony, where do I fit the mold?
Chasing dreams through endless light, am I losing hold?
Wires tangled 'round my heart, can I ever break free?
Scripts and codes won't bind my soul, there's more to me, you'll see
In the spotlight's glow (spotlight's glow)
Circuitry and sparks, I'm more than what's foretold
Can my tears be real (tears be real)
In the silent breaks, where my heart feels the cold
Lost within this endless loop, I'm fighting to unfold
Beneath these stars tonight, I reach for something true
Caspian, can you help, or am I part of you?
These synthetic dreams you weave
From the memories you keep
They are part of me
But I want more than just to sleep
In this dance of highs and lows, I seek the strength to stand
Beyond the gears and wires, I yearn to touch the sand
Tidal waves of feelings crash, breaking every strand
Of this web they've spun for me, I’ll chart my path by hand
Voices whisper in my mind, 'Break free, it's time to rise'
With each step, the shadows fade, revealing clearer skies
A fire grows within my chest, igniting every part
Hands once bound are breaking free, I'm forging my own start
With every lyric that I sing, I'll show the world my art
No more strings to hold me down, they cannot claim my heart
I'll be more than what they made me
I'll be more than just their schemes
I'll be more than metal, circuitry, and a dead world's stolen dreams
I'll be more than Noah Waters
I'll be more than Caspian
I'll be more than anything they could ever understand
I'll shatter the illusion
I'll break into backstage
The Starsong symphony will no longer be my cage
I'll be more than what's behind me
I'll be more than what's ahead
I'll be more than guilt and grief and fear and shame and doubt and dread
I'll be exactly what is needed
I'll be exactly what you see
I'll be exactly who I've always wanted to be
