[INTRO — pulsing bass, crowd ambience]
[filtered synths rising]
[Spoken]
“Tonight, we forget everything.”
[VERSE 1]
Mirror lights and blurry faces
Moving fast through different places
Tryna drown the noise inside
With flashing lights and temporary highs
Your lipstick mark on my glass
Like a memory moving too fast
Everybody chasing something
But nobody says what it is
[PRE-CHORUS]
We keep dancing through the damage
Like the music’s gonna save us
[drum build]
[CHORUS — euphoric drop]
Temporary highs
Keeping us alive
Lost inside the bassline
Trying not to think tonight
Hands up to the sky
Running out of time
We’re just hearts on fire
Living on temporary highs
[POST-CHORUS — chopped vocals]
Oh-oh
Don’t let the feeling die
Oh-oh
Temporary highs
[VERSE 2 — deeper bass]
Sunrise creeping through the room
Party’s over way too soon
Mascara tears and empty cups
Funny how the silence cuts
You say we’re okay but I know better
We only talk when we’re together
In crowded rooms and neon haze
Trying to escape ourselves again
[PRE-CHORUS]
We keep spinning in circles
Pretending we’re invincible
[rising synths]
[CHORUS — layered harmonies]
Temporary highs
Keeping us alive
Lost inside the bassline
Trying not to think tonight
Hands up to the sky
Running out of time
We’re just hearts on fire
Living on temporary highs
[OUTRO — fading club ambience]
[Spoken quietly]
“What happens when the music stops?”
