Lyric

[Verse 1 - HIKARI]

I was watching the news again tonight

Children running from the fire and the fight

I wanted to look away, pretend I didn't see

But their eyes were looking straight at me

[Verse 1 - SORA]

Across the ocean, someone feels the same

Different language, different skin, but equal pain

We build our walls and say "It's not our war"

But tell me what we're building all these walls for

[Verse 1 - YUME]

A single candle doesn't seem like much

But a million little flames can light us up

I don't have the answers, I don't have the key

But I have my voice... will you sing with me?

[Pre-Chorus - ALL, harmonized]

We're not politicians, we're not kings

We're just ordinary hearts with broken wings

But even small voices echo through the night

What if we decided to become the light?

[Chorus - ALL, powerful]

We are the light that never fades away!

We are the hope of a brand new day!

Across the borders, we're reaching out our hands!

One voice, one heartbeat, one place to stand!

We are the dream that refuses to die!

We are the tears and the battle cry!

It doesn't matter where you're from or who you are!

We're all just humans underneath the same stars!

[Verse 2 - SORA]

They say that peace is just a fairy tale

A fantasy that's always bound to fail

"The world's too broken, people never change"

But I refuse to think we can't rearrange

[Verse 2 - YUME]

I've seen a stranger help another stand

I've seen enemies reach out to shake a hand

The news won't show you all the quiet good

The million little kindnesses misunderstood

[Verse 2 - HIKARI]

So what if we're just idols on a stage?

What if our song could turn another page?

They say we're naive, they say we're just kids

But every revolution started small like this

[Pre-Chorus - ALL, building intensity]

We're not the answer, we're not the end

We're just the beginning trying to transcend

The hate, the fear, the walls between us all

What if we decided to let them fall?

[Chorus - ALL, full power]

We are the light that never fades away!

We are the hope of a brand new day!

Across the borders, we're reaching out our hands!

One voice, one heartbeat, one place to stand!

We are the dream that refuses to die!

We are the tears and the battle cry!

It doesn't matter where you're from or who you are!

We're all just humans underneath the same stars!

[Bridge - Slow, intimate, trading lines]

[HIKARI - Spoken softly]

To the child who lost their home tonight

We see you

[SORA - Spoken softly]

To the mother praying for her son

We hear you

[YUME - Spoken softly]

To everyone who feels invisible

We are you

[HIKARI - Singing gently]

One hand reaches out across the sea

[SORA - Joining]

One voice joins another melody

[YUME - Joining]

One heart beating for humanity

[ALL - Building]

And suddenly we're not alone

Suddenly we're HOME

[ALL - Building]

And suddenly we're not alone

Suddenly we're HOME

[ALL - Building]

And suddenly we're not alone

Suddenly we're HOME

[Build-up - Accelerating, call and response]

[HIKARI] Are you with me?!

[Crowd/Echo] We're with you!

[SORA] Can you hear me?!

[Crowd/Echo] We hear you!

[YUME] Do you believe?!

[Crowd/Echo] We believe!

[ALL] Then let's show them what we're made of—

[Final Chorus - Maximum power, triumphant]

WE ARE THE LIGHT THAT NEVER FADES AWAY!

WE ARE THE HOPE OF A BRAND NEW DAY!

EVERY BORDER, EVERY WALL IS COMING DOWN!

ONE VOICE, ONE HEARTBEAT, ONE WORLD, ONE SOUND!

WE ARE THE DREAM THAT REFUSES TO DIE!

WE ARE THE FUTURE STANDING SIDE BY SIDE!

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU'RE FROM OR WHO YOU ARE!

WE'RE ALL JUST HUMANS UNDERNEATH THE SAME STARS!

[Outro - Gentle, hopeful, fading]

[YUME]

Underneath the same stars

[SORA]

Looking at the same moon

[HIKARI]

Hoping for the same thing

[ALL - Whispered, harmonized]

Peace... is possible

If we just believe

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Whispered, harmonized]

Peace... is possible

If we just believe

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light

[ALL - Final line, soft but certain]

We are the light
