Glitter in the Stacks

[Intro] Dust motes drift under lamplight [Verse 1] In the quiet stacks she hides her smile A shy librarian with a careful style Glitter slips free, a comet on pale page skin A rare manuscript shivers under a moonlit grin sparkle and shine, this mess is mine! [Pre-Chorus] The supervisor's shadow rounds the corner near Her breath tightens, she steadies fear [Chorus] Potion glow is near, I race the time Clock hands drum a stubborn rhythm in my spine I reach for the bottle, fate in my mind Save the manuscript before the bells chime [Verse 2] She darts through aisles, chasing a glimmer bright Glyphs on a map point to a hidden rite The potion bottle hums in a pale blue glow She pockets the vial, ready to go [Pre-Chorus] Footsteps near the door, a stern, looming glare Her pulse keeps time as she sweeps through air [Chorus] Potion glow is near, I race the time Clock hands drum a stubborn rhythm in my spine I reach for the bottle, fate in my mind Save the manuscript before the bells chime [Bridge] If fear returns, she hums louder, braver still Her hands stay steady, destiny bends at her will [Chorus] Potion glow is near, I race the time Clock hands drum a stubborn rhythm in my spine I reach for the bottle, fate in my mind Save the manuscript before the bells chime [Outro] The library sighs, the glitter fades to night
