“Begin Anew (Alternative)” is a reimagined version of the original cinematic single.
Rawer, louder, and more human — this mix blends alternative rock energy with cinematic emotion.
Electric guitars meet cello and piano, reflecting the fire and freedom that come after healing.

Lyrics & Chords:
The chords (C – G – Am – F / Am – F – C – G / F – C – G – Am) are consistently structured with the alt-rock progression, and they work perfectly with your production mix — especially since the electric guitar drives the rhythm more prominently.
The verses and bridge structure also match your alt-rock arrangement — no lyric or chord adjustments needed.

⸻

[Intro – reflective electric guitar & ambient pad]

(C – G – Am – F)
Breathing in, the silence breaks,
A spark of fire the morning makes.

⸻

[Verse 1 – raspy, grounded female vocal]

(C – G – Am – F)
I fell hard, I lost my way,
Truth was whispering, I turned away.
But every scar taught me to see,
That every fall still carried me.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – layered harmonies building intensity]

(Am – F – C – G)
I’m still here, finding light,
Learning how to face the night.

⸻

[Chorus – full band, electric guitar lift, drums drive in]

(F – C – G – Am)
Sing it loud, for the ones who break,
For the hearts that bend but never fake.
What’s broken now is burning through,
Every day, begin anew.

⸻

[Verse 2 – voice with edge, more grit and reverb]

(C – G – Am – F)
Every lie I used to believe,
Can’t hold the truth that’s finding me.
The echoes fade, the pain rewinds,
I left the past but kept the lines.

⸻

[Bridge – distorted guitar + layered vocals]

(Am – F – G – C)
Whisper to the fire, I’m not afraid,
Every loss built what I’ve made.
From the ache, I start to grow,
From the dark, the light will show.

⸻

[Final Chorus – harmonized, percussive, power vocals]

(F – C – G – Am)
Sing it loud, for the ones who break,
For the hearts that bend but never fake.
What’s broken now is breaking through,
Every day, begin anew.
(begin anew, begin anew…)

⸻

[Outro – clean electric tone fading to silence]

(C – F – C)
And I begin… anew.

Begin Anew (Alternative)

The Music Between Us | by Kari Matteson

Music is more than sound. It is presence, rhythm, and a language that speaks where words cannot.

The Music Between Us is about that shared connection. It lives in the quiet spaces between emotion and expression, in the moment when melody meets memory. Each lyric carries something real: something lived, felt, and transformed.

I’m Kari Matteson, a writer, visual designer, and creative visionary. I am also the Founder and Creative Director of GraphiCatch.ai, a platform where human creativity meets intelligent design. My work moves fluidly between song, story, and visual art, always shaped by emotion and made to resonate.

Every track begins with a story. Some are bold, some are tender, but all are rooted in truth. I write every lyric and craft the musical foundation myself. I use AI as a collaborator, not the artist. It helps translate what’s in the heart into form, but the emotion, the vision, and the intent are entirely human.

The style shifts among cinematic, alternative, and reflective moods, but the soul remains constant. What you hear is always honest.

Music is more than melody. It is the thread that brings us closer.
