[Verse 1 – Season One]
Small town streets and bikes at night,
Christmas lights trying to guide the fight,
A missing kid, a secret door,
Something’s wrong like never before.
A girl with scars and a shaved-down head,
Power in her hands, fear in her breath,
Friends stay close, they don’t let go,
Facing dark things they don’t yet know.
[Chorus]
We were just kids, but the world broke through,
Shadows grew where the quiet once knew,
Every season changed the game,
But we stood together through the fear and pain.
[Verse 2 – Season Two]
The past still burns, it won’t stay still,
Nightmares crawl up Hawkins Hill,
Mind trapped deep, the dark takes hold,
Growing up way too fast, too cold.
Trust is tested, lines are crossed,
Some are found, some are lost,
The storm inside begins to spread,
A shadow living in someone’s head.
[Chorus]
We were just kids, but the world broke through,
Shadows grew where the quiet once knew,
Every season changed the game,
But we stood together through the fear and pain.
[Verse 3 – Season Three]
Summer heat and neon signs,
Mall lights glow like better times,
Laughing loud, pretending fine,
While danger waits just past the line.
Something watches, something’s near,
Smiles hide the growing fear,
When the battle costs too much,
Goodbyes hurt worse than the rush.
[Verse 4 – Season Four]
Years go by, the cracks remain,
Different towns, same old pain,
Memories haunt, the clock ticks slow,
Running from things we can’t outgrow.
Facing guilt, facing truth,
Losing pieces of our youth,
But even broken, even scared,
We fight back because we care.
[Verse 5 – Season Five]
The town still stands, but barely whole,
Cracks in the ground, cracks in the soul,
No more running, nowhere to hide,
This time we face it side by side.
Older now, but hearts still the same,
Final stand in the burning flame,
If this is where the story ends,
We’ll fight as more than just friends.
[Final Chorus]
We were just kids, now we’ve changed inside,
Still chasing light through the dark we hide,
Every season left a scar,
But together’s how we made it this far.
[Outro]
From bikes and lights to the edge of time,
Every loss, every climb,
No matter how the curtain bends,
Hawkins lives in us, till the end.
