Verse 1 (Style 1 & 2: Contemporary R&B – Smooth, syncopated bassline kicks in with a crisp snare.) Lead: Late night, the shadows start to lean Waiting on a signal, if you know what I mean. Group: (Style 3: Three-Part Harmony) (Know what I mean...) Lead: I’m sending out a frequency, looking for a sign But you’re playing on the edges, running out of time. (Style 13: Lead Guitar "Answer" – A bluesy guitar lick mimics the vocal melody after the word "time".) Pre-Chorus (Style 15: Call and Response) Lead: Can you hear me calling? Group: (I hear you calling!) Lead: Is the fire falling? Group: (The fire’s falling!) (Style 4: Harmonized Ad-libs – High soprano runs weave through the background.) Chorus (Full lush production. Heavy low-end.) All: It’s the instinct, the hunter and the prey We’re lost inside the rhythm of the games we play. (Style 8: Animal Imitations – A subtle, pitched-down "wolf howl" synth and a bird-like "chirp" percussion hit punctuates the end of the phrase.) Verse 2 (Style 7: Back-and-Forth Duel – The Lead Singer and the Backup Singer trade lines aggressively.) Lead: You think you’re hidden in the dark! Backup: I’m the one who provided the spark! Lead: You’re moving like a ghost! Backup: I’m the one you need the most! Bridge: The Shift (Style 12: The "Drop-In" – The music cuts to total silence for a split second, then slams back in at double speed.) (Style 9: Drum-and-Bass Section – High-speed breakbeats and a wobbling "Reese" bassline take over.) Group: (Style 14: Round Singing – "Don't let go" is repeated by different singers entering at different times, creating a spinning vocal effect.) Singer A: Don’t let go... Singer B: (Entering 2 beats later) Don’t let go... Singer C: (Entering 2 beats later) Don’t let go... Breakdown (The drums vanish instantly.) (Style 11: A Cappella Breakdown) All: (In tight, soulful harmony) No more running, no more lies, Just the truth beneath these violet skies. (Finger snap on the 2 and 4.) Outro (The R&B groove returns for a final fade.) Lead: (Ad-libbing over the Three-Part Harmony) Yeah, we’re echoes... echoes in the wild... (Style 5: Reverb Wash returns as the vocals dissolve into a sea of echo until silence.)
