about

Inspired by Daughter of Smoke & Bone and Days of Blood & Starlight by Laini Taylor.

It's from the perspective of Karou as she learns who she is and what she's supposed to do with her life.

lyrics

There is power in you
Hope always stays true
Because wishes are false
And even angels can fall

And love’s a luxury
But it’s embedded in me
It’s like the air that we breathe
And the earth that we see

And you are my gravity
You are my infinity
Your soul sings its song to me

Once upon a time
An angel saved my life
And fell for a devil like me
Once upon a time
The angel he was dying
Yet I leaned over and smiled
Still we search for peace
The chord that strikes in harmony
The life that we live is a dream
But it’s better than nothing

I am made up of stars
But they don’t know who they are
I wish that they would just leave
So I could fin’lly be free

Cause I was innocence once
A girl with feathers and love
But now my life’s opened up
And nothing else is enough

This is my gravity
This is my destiny
And nothing’s gonna stop me

Once upon a time
An angel saved my life
And fell for a devil like me
Once upon a time
The world split in two
And now I don’t even know you
Still we search for peace
The chord that strikes in harmony
The life that we live is a dream
But it’s better than nothing

But it was brave
It was rare
It was love so extreme
That nothing could compare

I was born of smoke and bone
You were born of heaven
I was named for all the hope
That’s keeping life together

And I know that hope is magic

This is my gravity
This is my destiny
And nothing’s gonna stop me

Once upon a time
An angel saved my life
And fell for a devil like me
Once upon a time
I hid away my life
And made monsters to send through the sky
Still we search for peace
The chord that strikes in harmony
The life that we live is a dream
But it’s better than nothing
