Future Wildling

[Verse 1]
Scuffed-up boots
On the kitchen tile
Tracing maps
In a scribbled spiral
Every doorway
Feels like some grand gate
Every whispered "wait"
Arrives too late
[Pre-Chorus]
I see armor in the hallway mirror
Or a backpack full of sky
Either way the edge gets nearer
I was born to say goodbye
[Chorus]
I’m a future wildling
World at my feet
Running into mornings
I have not seen
Maybe I’m a knight
Maybe I just ride
Either way I’m unfurled
I’m free in this wide
Wide world (oh)
I’m a future wildling
Watch me collide
[Verse 2]
Parents talk
About steady paths
I draw dragons
In my homework math
Silver crown
Made of paper clips
Tastes like courage
On my bitten lips
[Pre-Chorus]
All these signposts
All these warnings
I just turn them into stars
Every rule they write for borders
I fold into paper hearts
[Chorus]
I’m a future wildling
World at my feet
Running into mornings
I have not seen
Maybe I’m a knight
Maybe I just ride
Either way I’m unfurled
I’m free in this wide
Wide world (hey)
I’m a future wildling
Watch me collide
[Bridge]
Will I guard a kingdom
Or sleep on a train
Will I tame the thunder
Or dance in the rain
I don’t need the answer
To start tonight
Every road is glowing
In these open eyes (woah)
[Chorus]
I’m a future wildling
World at my feet
Running into mornings
I have not seen
Maybe I’m a knight
Maybe I just ride
Either way I’m unfurled
I’m free in this wide
Wide world
I’m a future wildling
Shouting inside
Whatever the future
It’s mine to decide

pop, Emo-leaning pop with female vocals, bright plucked guitars over airy synth pads and a roomy drum groove. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d, then the chorus blooms with wide harmonies and a soaring lead. Sub bass and filtered percussion give a restless pulse; bridge strips back to vocal and pads before a final, explosive hook with layered “whoa” gang vocals., world, emo
