NOBODY KNOWS

NOBODY KNOWS (EXTENDED MIX) ​[INTRO — 0:00–0:15] ​(Minimal, melancholic piano chords with a soft atmospheric pad in the background) Nobody knows... What happens when it's just us... Away from the noise, Away from the crowd. ​[VERSE 1 — 0:15–0:38] ​Everybody sees us... Walking down the street, But nobody knows the truth, Or the quiet ache underneath. Nobody hears the conversations... Between me and you, When the masks finally slip And the feelings ring true. They see us laughing... They don't see our tears, They don't know how close we came... To losing all our years. ​[CHORUS — 0:38–1:05] ​Nobody knows... Nobody sees... The little things you mean to me. Nobody knows... What we have inside, The way you hold my hand... The way you look into my eyes. Yeah, it's our own secret world... Where the flags stay furled. ​[VERSE 2 — 1:05–1:32] ​We don't need an audience... We don't need their approval, What matters is the truth... Deep beneath the removal. When the whole world gets loud... We find somewhere quiet, And somehow in that silence... Everything feels right. Just the sound of your breathing, Keeping me whole. ​[BRIDGE — 1:32–2:00] ​Let them wonder... Let them talk... They don't have to understand the miles we walked. Our love isn't theirs to measure... It's ours to hold, A hidden treasure more valuable than gold. We keep the lights dimmed low, And let the rest of the world just go. ​[GUITAR / INSTRUMENTAL SOLO — 2:00–2:30] ​(Tearful, emotive electric guitar slides that echo the sentiment of the bridge, building tension before dropping back into the rhythm) ​[FINAL CHORUS — 2:30–2:59] ​Nobody knows... Nobody sees... The little things you mean to me. Nobody knows... What we have inside, The way you hold my hand... The way you look into my eyes. Nobody knows... And that's okay... Some things are better... Just between us. (Piano fades out softly on a suspended chord)
