[One-time announcement, spoken]
"Hey everybody – this one goes out to the one who's always there. When the world gets heavy, when the night feels long… I'll cheer you up. Sing it with us!"

[Verse 1]
When the sky is falling down on you
And the colors fade to grey
When you feel like there's nothing left to do
And you've lost your words to say

[Pre-Chorus]
I will be there, I will be around
I will lift you off the ground
When you stumble, when you fall
You can always hear my call

[Chorus]
I'll cheer you up when you are down
I'll be your smile when you're wearing a frown
I'll be the fire when the cold comes in
I'll be the fight that you're gonna win
I'll cheer you up, I'll cheer you up
Yeah, I'll cheer you up tonight!

[Verse 2]
When the noise is getting way too loud
And your head is spinning 'round
When you're lost inside a lonely crowd
And your feet can't touch the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
I will be there, I will be around
I will lift you off the ground
When you stumble, when you fall
You can always hear my call

[Chorus]
I'll cheer you up when you are down
I'll be your smile when you're wearing a frown
I'll be the fire when the cold comes in
I'll be the fight that you're gonna win
I'll cheer you up, I'll cheer you up
Yeah, I'll cheer you up tonight!

[Bridge]
Raise your voice, let it ring
Let the whole damn city sing
You're not alone, you're not alone
Together we are made of stone
Raise your hands, feel the sound
We will never back down
Never back down!

[Guitar Solo]

[Final Chorus – extended, crowd singalong]
I'll cheer you up when you are down
I'll be your smile when you're wearing a frown
I'll be the fire when the cold comes in
I'll be the fight that you're gonna win
I'll cheer you up, I'll cheer you up
Yeah, I'll cheer you up tonight!

I'll cheer you up! (cheer you up!)
I'll cheer you up! (cheer you up!)
I'll cheer you up! (cheer you up!)
Yeah, I'll cheer you up tonight!

[Outro]
When you are down…
I'll cheer you up.
Yeah… I'll cheer you up tonight.

[Verse 1]
The night is long, the road is steep
I've walked through valleys, dark and deep
The rain keeps falling on my face
But I can feel a steady grace

I don't know what tomorrow brings
The joy, the sorrow, all the things
But there's a hand that holds me tight
And turns my darkness into light

[Chorus]
Deep down my soul, there is a peace
A quiet river that will never cease
Whatever comes, whatever goes
I know my Father holds it close
Deep down my soul, I'm not alone
He makes it right, He makes it home
So let the storm howl, let it roll
I've got His peace deep down my soul

[Verse 2]
I used to run, I used to hide
I used to question every tide
But now I rest in what I know
He's been faithful, and He won't let go

When mountains shake and rivers rise
I see the mercy in His eyes
He writes the story, I just sing
And trust the goodness that He brings

[Chorus]
Deep down my soul, there is a peace
A quiet river that will never cease
Whatever comes, whatever goes
I know my Father holds it close
Deep down my soul, I'm not alone
He makes it right, He makes it home
So let the storm howl, let it roll
I've got His peace deep down my soul

[Bridge]
If you are tired, if you're afraid
If every hope you had has frayed
There's a door that's open wide
And a love that won't divide

Come and see, come and know
The One who never lets you go
He'll meet you where your heart is torn
And give you peace like a newborn morn

[Guitar interplay, 72 bars - E-guitar, acoustic guitar, bass]

[Chorus - powerful, convinced]
Deep down my soul, there is a peace
A quiet river that will never cease
Whatever comes, whatever goes
I know my Father holds it close
Deep down my soul, I'm not alone
He makes it right, He makes it home
So let the storm howl, let it roll
I've got His peace deep down my soul

[Chorus - the crowd is singing along]
Deep down my soul, there is a peace
A quiet river that will never cease
Whatever comes, whatever goes
I know my Father holds it close
Deep down my soul, I'm not alone
He makes it right, He makes it home
So let the storm howl, let it roll
I've got His peace deep down my soul

[Outro – quiet, almost spoken]
Let it roll… let it roll…
I've got His peace… deep down my soul
Deep down my soul…

[Intro – Soft clean guitar, distant atmospheric keyboards]

[Verse 1 – Intimate, wistful female vocal]

Sometimes I wonder where you were
In all those years before we met
Were you out there beneath the same stars?
Were there nights you can't forget?

How many roads did we both travel?
How many dreams did we let go?
How many times did life turn backwards
When it could have brought us close?

[Pre-Chorus – Gradually building]

If I could reach across the years
I'd find you through a thousand tears
I'd take your hand, I'd hold you tight
And tell you we would be alright

[Chorus – Powerful, soaring vocals, full band]

I miss you in my past
I wish our love had found us fast
Before the lonely nights we knew
Before the years we struggled through

Oh, if I'd only known your name
I'd never wish those years the same
But every road has led me here
And now you're everything, my dear

I miss you in my past
But I've found you at last

[Verse 2 – More intensity, melodic electric guitars]

I wish I'd seen your smile at sunrise
Heard your laughter fill the room
Been the shelter in your hard times
Chased away your darkest gloom

We could have watched the seasons turning
Shared the dreams we couldn't see
All those little things I'm yearning for
Could have been our history

[Pre-Chorus – Stronger, drums building]

And maybe we were meant to roam
Through all those years to find our home
Perhaps the time was not yet right
Until you walked into my life

[Chorus – Full power, soaring melodic lead guitar]

I miss you in my past
I wish our love had found us fast
Before the lonely nights we knew
Before the years we struggled through

Oh, if I'd only known your name
I'd never wish those years the same
But every road has led me here
And now you're everything, my dear

I miss you in my past
But I've found you at last

[Instrumental – Melodic electric guitar solo, emotional and soaring]

[Bridge – Half-time, intimate vocal, then building]

No, we can't rewrite the pages
Can't reclaim the time that's gone
But we've got a thousand tomorrows
And a love to carry on

So let the years behind us fade
Let every promise now be made
There's so much life we haven't known
And I won't let you walk alone

[Breakdown – Soft piano and voice]

If I could live it all again
I'd search for you through every when
Through every lifetime, every scar
I'd find you, no matter how far

[Build – Drums rising, guitars swelling]

But I don't need to dream somehow
You're here beside me now!

[Final Chorus – Explosive, powerful high female vocals, backing harmonies]

I miss you in my past
But we have found each other at last!
No more lonely nights to face
No more searching, no more empty space

Oh, every road has led me here
And every lost year disappears
We've got forever starting now
And I'll show you love somehow!

I miss you in my past
But our future's built to last!

[Outro – Big sustained guitars, emotional vocal ad-libs]

I'm so glad I found you
So glad you're here with me
If I could choose my whole life over
You're the one I'd choose to see

I missed you in my past...

But I have you now.

And all our tomorrows
Are waiting to begin.

[Final sustained vocal, fading guitars]

[Intro – Heavy Guitar Riff, Engine Revving, Powerful Drums]

[Verse 1]
You got the muscle, I got the spark
We light it up in the dead of dark
One little touch, and the gauges climb
You hit the throttle, I lose track of time

No cold starts, no running slow
You know exactly where I wanna go
Check your system, check your fuel
Baby, tonight we break every rule

[Pre-Chorus]
Give me the pressure, give me the heat
Feel that thunder underneath our feet
No hesitation, no holding back
We're gonna burn up the whole damn track

[Chorus]
Full throttle love, let the engine scream
Feed me the fire, fuel my dream
Boost me higher, take me inside
Feel that ignition, feel that ride

Full throttle love, we're out of control
You're the hot wire running through my soul
No brakes, no limits, no looking back
Two hearts racing on a one-way track

[Verse 2]
Your turbo's spinning, my pulse runs wild
You got that power, I got that smile
One more injection, one more spark
We're making trouble till the morning light

My control unit knows what to do
Every signal leads me back to you
Perfect timing, synchronized
No false alarms when our systems collide

[Pre-Chorus]
Give me the pressure, give me the heat
Feel that thunder underneath our feet
No hesitation, no holding back
We're gonna burn up the whole damn track

[Chorus]
Full throttle love, let the engine scream
Feed me the fire, fuel my dream
Boost me higher, take me inside
Feel that ignition, feel that ride

Full throttle love, we're out of control
You're the hot wire running through my soul
No brakes, no limits, no looking back
Two hearts racing on a one-way track

[Instrumental Break – Heavy Guitar Solo, Double-Kick Drums]

[Bridge – Half-Time Groove, Sultry Powerful Vocals]
More pressure!
More power!
Keep me burning hour after hour!

More fuel!
More fire!
Take me higher, take me higher!

Don't cut the power, don't kill the flame
You know I'm never gonna be the same
Turn up the boost, let the whole world know
We're built for speed, and we're born to blow!

[Breakdown – Bass, Drums, Vocal Shouts]
Ignition!
Ignition!
Feel the heat!

Injection!
Injection!
Move to the beat!

[Build-Up – Guitars and Drums Rising]

[Final Chorus – Huge Vocals, Full Band]
Full throttle love, let the engine scream
Feed me the fire, fuel my dream
Boost me higher, take me inside
Feel that ignition, feel that ride

Full throttle love, we're out of control
You're the hot wire running through my soul
No brakes, no limits, no looking back
Two hearts racing on a one-way track

[Final Chorus – Even Bigger, Extended]
Full throttle love!
Give me all you've got!
Full throttle love!
Make it burn, make it hot!

Full throttle love!
Never let it die!
Redline fever!
Take me to the sky!

[Outro – Heavy Guitar Riff, Engine Revving, Sudden Stop]
Full throttle...
Full throttle love!

[Intro – Spoken, cheeky female voice]

Yo, Bro!

Was geht?

Der Speck is weg!

Und jetzt?

Jetzt bewegen wir was!

[Beat drops]

[Verse 1 – Female Rap]

Wir sind zu spät auf die Party gekommen,
haben die Reste vom Buffet genommen.
Die Miete steigt, der Kühlschrank ist leer,
und einer sagt: „Früher war's nicht so schwer.“

Wir sollen was leisten, wir sollen was wagen,
doch keiner kann uns die Zukunft zusagen.
Der Planet hat Fieber, der Frieden hat Flecken,
und manche woll'n lieber die Köpfe verstecken.

Wir sind nicht blind und wir sind nicht dumm,
wir fragen nach Gründen und dem Drum'rum.
Kein Bock auf Parolen, kein Bock auf Geschrei,
wir wollen was ändern – und sind mit dabei!

[Pre-Chorus – Building up]

Ihr sagt, wir wären still,
als ob keiner was will.
Doch auch wir ganz Leisen
können Stärke beweisen!

[Chorus – Catchy, powerful female vocal]

Bro, der Speck is weg,
doch wir stecken nicht im Dreck!
Wenn die Zukunft Risse kriegt,
wird Musik gemacht und gesiegt!

Bro, der Speck is weg,
doch wir haben noch 'nen Zweck!
Jeder Song, jeder Schritt
bringt ein bisschen Hoffnung mit!

Hey! Wir geben nicht auf!
Wir geben niemals auf!
Bro, der Speck is weg –
doch wir sind noch lange nicht weg!

[Verse 2 – Rhythmic female rap]

Wir müssen nicht warten, bis jemand beginnt,
statt Auto nun Fahrrad und Öffis nimmt.
Denn zu viel kostbare Zeit vergeht
bis irgendwer endlich die Lösung verrät.

Mal selber was reparieren statt kaufen,
mal mit dem Nachbarn zum Einkaufen laufen.
Dem Fremden im Bus einen Platz reservieren,
und statt nur zu posten auch mal demonstrieren.

Wir sammeln den Müll auf dem Weg durch den Park,
machen den Schulhof gemeinsam wieder stark.
Wir kaufen nicht alles, nur weil es grad blinkt,
und teilen, bevor man im Überfluss ertrinkt.

[Pre-Chorus – Building up]

Ihr sagt, die Jugend pennt,
hat den Ernst nicht erkannt.
Doch wir haben längst Feuer
und reichen uns die Hand!

[Chorus – Catchy, powerful female vocal]

Bro, der Speck is weg,
doch wir stecken nicht im Dreck!
Wenn die Zukunft Risse kriegt,
wird Musik gemacht und gesiegt!

Bro, der Speck is weg,
doch wir haben noch 'nen Zweck!
Jeder Song, jeder Schritt
bringt ein bisschen Hoffnung mit!

Hey! Wir geben nicht auf!
Wir geben niemals auf!
Bro, der Speck is weg –
doch wir sind noch lange nicht weg!

[Verse 3 – Faster, more assertive rap]

Wir brauchen den Frieden, nicht den nächsten Schützengraben,
mehr Mut zum Reden als zum Drohen und Schlagen.
Wir brauchen 'ne Zukunft, in der jeder was zählt,
nicht nur die Kohle, die am Monatsende fehlt.

Wir dürfen doch fragen, wer was entscheidet,
ohne dass gleich die Gesellschaft sich scheidet.
Nicht jeder, der anders denkt, ist unser Feind,
manchmal ist's der Dialog, der die Menschen vereint.

Kein Schwarz und kein Weiß, kein Gut gegen Böse,
kein Hass, der die nächste Katastrophe auslöse.
Wir können uns streiten und trotzdem versteh'n,
und gemeinsam vernünftige Schritte geh'n.

[Bridge – Beat strips back, sincere female vocal]

Vielleicht rettet ein Song nicht die ganze Welt.
Doch wenn einer zuhört und einer versteht,
wenn einer nach Hause geht und etwas verändert,
dann hat sich schon was bewegt.

Ein Lied wird ein Gespräch.
Ein Gespräch wird ein Plan.
Ein Plan wird ein Anfang.

Und aus einem Anfang
wird irgendwann mehr.

[Beat builds – spoken female ad-libs]

Na, Bro?

Noch da?

Dann los!

[Final Chorus – Full beat, backing choir, energetic female lead]

Bro, der Speck is weg,
doch wir stecken nicht im Dreck!
Wenn die Zukunft Risse kriegt,
wird Musik gemacht und gesiegt!

Bro, der Speck is weg,
doch wir haben noch 'nen Zweck!
Jeder Song, jeder Schritt
bringt ein bisschen Hoffnung mit!

Hey! Wir geben nicht auf!
Wir geben niemals auf!
Bro, der Speck is weg –
doch wir sind noch lange nicht weg!

[Outro – Female rap, playful and confident]

Kein Platz für den Hass, kein Platz für den Dreck,
wir räumen gemeinsam die Hindernisse weg.
Kein Zauber, kein Trick, kein fertiges Rezept,
nur jeder, der anfängt – und jeder, der's checkt!

Bro, der Speck is weg!

Na und?

Wir haben noch was vor.

[Beat ends cleanly]

[Verse 1]
Ich hab gelernt, nicht jedem Sturm zu glauben,
nicht jedem Schild, das Richtung Himmel zeigt.
Zu viele bauen sich aus Angst ihr'n Glauben,
aus dünnem Glas, das schon beim Fragen schweigt.
Ich hör noch auf das leise Pochen innen,
auf dieses „Nein“, wenn alle „Ja“ nur schrei’n.
Man kann sich selbst auch leise neu erfinden,
und trotzdem unbeirrbar ehrlich sein.
...
...

[Pre-Chorus]
Sie zieh’n an Fäden, bunt und fein,
doch mein ICH bleibt immer mein.
...

[Chorus]
Mein Herz kannste nicht brechen,
nicht kaufen, nicht drehn, nicht verbiegen.
Du kannst mir viel versprechen,
doch ich bleib aufrecht zwischen den Lügen.
Mein Herz kannste nicht brechen,
es schlägt nicht im Takt eurer Macht.
Es lernt aus den einfachen Lehren,
die sind nicht in Palästen gemacht.

[Verse 2]
Ich brauch kein Podium, kein goldenes Zeichen,
kein Megafon, das mir erklärt, wer ich bin.
Zehn alte Sätze, in Stein schon verblichen,
sind oft moderner als der neueste Sinn.
Nicht töten. Nicht stehlen. Den Namen nicht schänden.
Den Schwachen nicht treten, nur weil er grad fällt.
Man muss nicht studiert haben, um das zu erkennen:
Ein gutes Herz ist die beste Welt.
...
...

[Pre-Chorus]
Kein Siegel, kein Vertrag der Zeit,
ersetzt ein bisschen Menschlichkeit.
...

[Chorus]
Mein Herz kannste nicht brechen,
nicht kaufen, nicht drehn, nicht verbiegen.
Du kannst mir viel versprechen,
doch ich bleib aufrecht zwischen den Lügen.
Mein Herz kannste nicht brechen,
es schlägt nicht im Takt eurer Macht.
Es lernt aus den einfachen Lehren,
die sind nicht in Palästen gemacht.

[Bridge (ruhiger, dann steigend)]
Sie nennen es Bildung, wenn man auswendig spricht,
doch Weisheit wohnt leise im inneren Licht.
Sie reden von Freiheit und dem freien Markt,
doch Freiheit beginnt, wo man Mitgefühl wagt.
...

[Acoustic guitar solo, 72 bars]

[Bridge Part 2]
Ich fall, ich zweifel, ich bin nicht aus Stein,
doch ich lern, mir selbst genug zu sein.
...

[Chorus]
Mein Herz kannste nicht brechen,
nicht formen nach eurer Moral.
Ich steh zu dem, was in mir lebt,
auch wenn euch das nicht gefällt – egal.
...
...
Mein Herz kannste nicht brechen,
es hat schon zu viel überlebt.
Solang es noch fühlt, wenn ein anderer leidet,
weiß ich, dass es richtig schlägt.

[Outro (optional, gesprochen oder gesungen)]
Du kannst meine Meinung verbieten,
meinen Namen verdrehn, meine Stimme verliern –
doch solange ich fühle, was richtig und falsch ist,
wirst du mein Herz nicht regiern.

[Verse 1]
I found your ring in the drawer
Under a faded ticket stub
Still warm like a secret kept
In a house that forgot your touch

Your coat still hangs by the door
One sleeve bent by the nail
I brush the thread with my thumb
And I lose my nerve again

[Pre-Chorus]
If I call your name out loud
Will the walls give you back to me?
If I tear these days apart
Will your shadow still bleed through?

[Chorus]
Love, you broke me open
Love, you broke me open
I hold the fire and cry

Love, you broke me open
Love, you broke me open
I’m still alive in the ash

[Verse 2]
The cup on the counter cracks
When I set it near the sink
Little white scars in the glaze
Like the shape of what we drank

I still hear your laugh in the hall
When the rain starts to hit the glass
I swear the dark knows your steps
And it keeps them at my back

[Pre-Chorus]
If I call your name out loud
Will the dark give you back to me?
If I tear these years apart
Will your ghost still burn in me?

[Chorus]
Love, you broke me open
Love, you broke me open
I hold the fire and cry

Love, you broke me open
Love, you broke me open
I’m still alive in the ash

[Bridge]
[Clean Guitar]
Take what’s left of my heart
It still beats your old refrain
I don’t ask for the dawn
I just want your face again

If heaven has a door
If the night has mercy left
Let me lay my hands on you
Let me lose you more than death

[Solo]
[Final Chorus]
Love, you broke me open
Love, you broke me open
I hold the fire and cry

Love, you broke me open
Love, you broke me open
I’m still alive in the ash

Love, you broke me open
Love, you broke me open
And I would break again

(Verse 1)
They tell me "Girl, you're free now, learn to love the space"
With smiles that don't quite reach their eyes, they try to state their case
They fill the air with easy words, like band-aids on a wound
But every echo in this room just sings a hollow tune

(Verse 2)
So I stopped fighting shadows that were dancing on the wall
I finally just let the silence come, and I embraced it all
I pulled a chair up to the table, poured two cups of bitter tea
And I gave this heavy feeling a new name for company

(Chorus)
Oh, Aloneliness, my constant friend
You’re the one who stays right to the very end
You’re the whisper in the quiet, the weight upon my chest
But with you here, I'm not alone, I'm just a different kind of guest
I see you now, Aloneliness
And it’s okay

(Verse 3)
You’re the cold side of the pillow when I just can’t fall asleep
You’re the promise that I made myself that’s gotten hard to keep
But you’re not some monster in the dark, you're just a quiet ache
A scar that's silvered over now, a choice I had to make
And now their words don’t sting so much, the ones that missed the mark
'Cause I’ve found a strange companionship here in the lonely dark

(Chorus)
Oh, Aloneliness, my constant friend
You’re the one who stays right to the very end
You’re the whisper in the quiet, the weight upon my chest
But with you here, I'm not alone, I'm just a different kind of guest
I see you now, Aloneliness

(Bridge)
And maybe one fine morning, you’ll get up and softly go
Leave a note upon the table, but I'm not afraid to know
That you’re just a chapter, not the title of my book
And when you’re gone, I might just give that empty chair a second look

(Outro)
It’s just a matter of time, they say... and maybe that’s alright
But for tonight...
I've got you, Aloneliness.
Goodnight.
