A moving piano-led ballad honoring lives remembered during Trans Day of Remembrance. Gentle female vocals carry heartfelt lyrics about love, loss, and courage, supported by acoustic guitar, soft strings, and tender percussion. The song reflects on truth, sorrow, and resilience — where bravery met hate but love still endured. Its bridge swells with hope, promising a future where no child grows up in fear. The chorus and outro rise like candlelight, reminding listeners that every name, every soul, and every flame deserves remembrance. The mood is intimate, emotional, and reverent, blending warmth and cinematic grace to celebrate light that never fades.
