[Intro – Clean Guitar Picking + Light Strings]
(Six…..one…..oh!)
[Voice 1] We were just kids with our hearts on fire
Dreaming big under broken streetlights
[Voice 2] Every promise felt like it could last forever
But forever was gone overnight
[Verse 1 – Voice 1 + Acoustic Guitar]
Sneakers on the power lines, still hanging high
We swore we’d never let the summer die
Now I’m staring at the same old sky
Wondering how the years slipped by
[Pre-Chorus – Voice 1 + Voice 2 (Harmony)]
[Voice 1] Growing older feels like losing ground
[Voice 2] But we’re still the kids when the lights go down
[Chorus – Full Band, Slow Build]
We’re forever kids at heart, we don’t fade away
Singing too soft like it’s yesterday
Every scar we’ve got is a badge we earned
We’ll never learn, we’ll never learn
[Verse 2 – Voice 2 + Piano + Strings]
Photographs in boxes, corners bent
Every tear was a letter we never sent
We’re grown-ups now but we still pretend
That this story won’t ever end
[Pre-Chorus – Voice 1 + Voice 2 (Call & Response)]
[Voice 1] Life keeps telling us to play it safe
[Voice 2] But we’re chasing sparks we can’t replace
[Chorus – Full Band, Strong Vocals]
We’re forever kids at heart, we don’t fade away
Singing too loud like it’s yesterday
Every scar we’ve got is a badge we earned
We’ll never learn, we’ll never learn
[Bridge – Stripped Back, Emotional Vocals]
[Voice 1] If the world says stop, I’ll keep on running
[Voice 2] If the night burns out, I’ll find a sunrise coming
[Gang Vocals, soft] This is our anthem, our disaster
We’ll never grow old, just grow louder
[Final Chorus – Big Ballad Release]
We’re forever kids at heart, we don’t fade away
Sing it together like it’s yesterday
Every scar we’ve got is a badge we earned
We’ll never learn, we’ll never learn
[Outro – Piano + Strings, Gentle Fade]
[Voice 1] We’ll never grow up…
[Voice 2, harmony] We’ll never learn.
