[Verse 1: Chloe]
Backstage light with your name in tape, powder and neon haze
Lipstick on the mic, a smudge that keeps our little trace
Lost backstage in echoes, hunting for your truth
Smile for the floodlights, count the beats between my shoes
[Pre-Chorus: Chloe]
When the curtains fall and the house breathes out slow
I hear your string-scratch speaking things nobody knows
A melody like moonlight, leaning soft against my skin
You find the hush inside me where the show can't begin
[Chorus: Chloe & Riley]
[Chloe] Two voices, one confession — I let the mask untie
[Riley] Two voices, one confession — hear the tremor in my cry
[Chloe] Sequins and satin, you read the lines I hide
[Riley] Frets that bleed at midnight, you pull the dark aside
[Chloe & Riley] They clap for the story; we trade the alibis
Two voices, one confession — this truth won't fit their lights
[Verse 2: Riley]
Six strings on my spine, neon scars I tuck away
Callus maps like cartography of every late-display
My jacket still smells of rain; the amp hums like a vow
I howl to fill the silence, but your whisper brings it down
[Pre-Chorus: Riley]
They see the snarled grin, the cigarette glow, the pose
They wrote our sparks as smoke and stage light in tabloids and prose
But beneath the leather there's a hands-shaking hymn
When you hum a fragile line, the edges start to dim
[Chorus: Chloe & Riley — call and response]
[Chloe] Two voices, one confession — I take the mask off slow
[Riley] Two voices, one confession — this riff will let you know
[Chloe] Velvet tones and quiet prayers, a softness in the storm
[Riley] Grit and gravel, midnight frets, you keep my pulse warm
[Chloe & Riley] Fans read our chemistry like headlines in the night
Two voices, one confession — we sing the thing inside
[Bridge: Chloe & Riley]
Drop the last façade, peel the tape from the mirror
Show me both your hands — the map of every fear
No more wigs, no scripts, no cues borrowed from the run
Take off the glittered armor, let the bare-song come undone
[Final Chorus: Chloe & Riley]
[Chloe] Two voices, one confession — unbutton the disguise
[Riley] Two voices, one confession — watch the glint leave our eyes
[Chloe] No more masks — just you and me, the hush, the honest plea
[Riley] No more mirrors — just our hands, the frets, the melody
[Chloe & Riley] They cheered for two strangers, but we were always tied
Two voices, one confession — no more lights between our lives
[Outro: Chloe & Riley — whisper]
They thought sparks were smoke and stage light; they never saw the seam
(whisper) It's always been us — two voices, one confession, one dream
