Genre: Indie-Pop or Singer-Songwriter Acoustic. Think of artists like Olivia Rodrigo (for the teenage angst and storytelling) or Taylor Swift’s "Folklore" era (for the soft, narrative feel).Instrumentation: Start with a simple acoustic guitar or a soft piano melody. As the song progresses into the second chorus, you could add light percussion or a "heartbeat" drum beat to build the emotional intensity.Vocal Style:Verses: Sing them in a breathy, conversational tone, almost like you’re sharing a secret.Chorus: Let the vocals become stronger and more melodic to show her growing confidence.Outro: End very soft and lingering, especially on the final line "meant to be," to leave the listener with that sense of hope. "Verse 1)She swore off dating, gave up on the sparkLiving in a world that she built in the darkShe looks in the mirror and sees every flawThe height, the skin, the things that she sawShe finds more comfort in the pages of a bookThan in her friends' laughter or a passing lookJust a middle-class girl who won't follow the trendAn outcast from Alaska, waiting for the end.(Verse 2)Then there’s the boy from the family with goldThe kind of story that’s already been toldHe doesn’t try hard, yet he’s liked by them allA freshman starter playing varsity ballOne single look and her walls start to shakeA foundation of granite beginning to breakShe’s holding her dignity with a trembling handTrying to remember where she meant to stand.(Chorus)As the time flies, she’s rebuilding the stoneBut he looks at her and she’s no longer aloneHe made her feel beautiful, he saw through the hazeAnd everything changed in the light of his gazeShe’s weighing the risk of the highs and the lowsIs it better to hide or to see where it goes?(Bridge)She knows he’s too good, almost too good to be trueBut what is a girl in her position to do?Sticking to her lows means she might miss the lightShe’s tired of running, she’s tired of the fight.(Chorus)As the time flies, she’s rebuilding the stoneBut he looks at her and she’s no longer aloneHe made her feel beautiful, he saw through the hazeAnd everything changed in the light of his gaze.(Outro)The girl who swore off dating is falling at lastFor the boy who doesn’t try, moving so fastCould this be the moment she finally sees?That maybe, just maybe, they’re meant to be."
Lyrics
[verse]
She swore off dating, gave up on the spark
Living in a world that she built in the dark
She looks in the mirror and sees every flaw
The height, the skin, the things that she saw
She finds more comfort in the pages of a book
Than in her friends' laughter or a passing look
Just a middle-class girl who won't follow the trend
An outcast from Alaska, waiting for the end.
[verse]
Then there’s the boy from the family with gold
The kind of story that’s already been told
He doesn’t try hard, yet he’s liked by them all
A freshman starter playing varsity ball
One single look and her walls start to shake
A foundation of granite beginning to break
She’s holding her dignity with a trembling hand
Trying to remember where she meant to stand.
[chorus]
As the time flies, she’s rebuilding the stone
But he looks at her and she’s no longer alone
He made her feel beautiful, he saw through the haze
And everything changed in the light of his gaze
She’s weighing the risk of the highs and the lows
Is it better to hide or to see where it goes?
[break]
[bridge]
She knows he’s too good, almost too good to be true
But what is a girl in her position to do?
Sticking to her lows means she might miss the light
She’s tired of running, she’s tired of the fight.
[chorus]
As the time flies, she’s rebuilding the stone
But he looks at her and she’s no longer alone
He made her feel beautiful, he saw through the haze
And everything changed in the light of his gaze.
[outro]
The girl who swore off dating is falling at last
For the boy who doesn’t try, moving so fast
Could this be the moment she finally sees?
That maybe, just maybe, they’re meant to be.
