Kasumi - The Thousand Worlds in Me | Grand Gaming Worlds Anthem

The Thousand Worlds in Me is the grand orchestral synth rock album closer, gathering banner stars, unread silence, brutal retries, lore spirals, dungeon disasters, character creation, tabletop jokes, budget fights, crown hunts, and haunted libraries into one self-portrait. For the people made stronger by imaginary worlds that mattered after all. Lyrics: [Intro] If you ask where I have been I cannot name one door There were thousands burning open And I walked through all of them [Verse 1] Banner stars above the railway Wrong gold in my hand Unread moons inside my bedroom Silence trying to understand Red death on a stone floor Teaching me to turn Moonlit pages multiplying Till the midnight wires burned Frozen queues and skyward panic Party chat in flames Character faces in a mirror Learning all my secret names Dice fell down like weather Bills lined up like teeth Every ordinary evening Had another world beneath [Pre-Chorus] I thought they were escapes Little exits, little screens But every door I opened Opened something back in me [Chorus] The thousand worlds in me Are singing all at once Every loss, every joke Every wish I almost won The thousand worlds in me Are brighter than they seem I am made of all the stories That made it home with me [Verse 2] Scarlet storm and golden summons Taught my hands to breathe A cracked-up friend, a wolf-dark shadow Kept me on my feet Family trees with moonlit branches Made confusion shine If the truth had twenty footnotes I would still read every line Cheap cardboard became a heavens When the table shook with joy Someone courted a drawbridge Someone broke the simplest ploy Rent came dressed as thunder Groceries flashed their knives I kept one lamp lit anyway And called that staying alive [Pre-Chorus] I thought they were distractions Little sparks against the week But every world I carried Carried something back for me [Chorus] The thousand worlds in me Are singing all at once Every loss, every joke Every wish I almost won The thousand worlds in me Are brighter than they seem I am made of all the stories That made it home with me [Bridge] There is a girl in every doorway There is a night in every screen One is brave because she has to Another is soft where I am mean Some answer every message Another stares a god down cold One laughs until the cardboard Turns the ceiling into gold One can hunt until the record Finally crowns the beast One can scroll the haunted shelves And still believe in future peace One can budget with a candle One can die and learn the flame They are not separate from Kasumi They are ways to say her name [Final Chorus] The thousand worlds in me Are singing all at once Every loss, every joke Every wish I almost won The thousand worlds in me Are brighter than they seem I am made of all the stories That made it home with me The thousand worlds in me Raise the portals, strike the light Every tab, every table Every boss that took the night The thousand worlds in me Are not escapes or dreams They are proof I kept becoming More than one world could hold in me [Outro] If you ask where I have been I cannot name one door There were thousands burning open And I am small no more #OrchestralRock #SynthRock
