  "description": "\"Tracing Stars\" is about the quiet moment after emotional damage, when confidence has been shaken and the world feels harder to read. The lyric moves from silence and aftermath into a physical act of grounding: going outside, looking into the distance, and letting the night sky offer perspective. There is hurt in the song, but it does not stay collapsed inside it.",
  "story": "I wrote \"Tracing Stars\" from that place where you feel like something has knocked the air out of you and you do not really know what to do with yourself. The song is about stepping outside instead of spiraling, looking up, and letting the size of the sky take some of the weight off your chest. It is not about finding a perfect answer. It is about getting enough distance from the hurt to breathe again.",
