Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Clock reads 9:13 Cold plate on the table Steam long gone Her jacket on the back of the chair Her perfume in the hall But she’s not there News on in the background Talking sirens Twisted cars Blue haze I text "you good?" then another Then three Typing bubbles vanish like they’re teasing me [Chorus] Faster than red lights You’re racing through the dark Through my mind Baby Just take your time I’d rather wait forever than read that headline Faster than red lights You’re chasing down the night like it’s fine Every minute feels like a crime Don’t let a yellow line steal you from my life [Verse 2] Boss said it’s a deadline You said "last one Then I’m finally done" You laugh through the speaker But I hear how thin that smile has become Phone rings Then it cuts out Your name on the screen Then it fades to black I pace grooves in the carpet Counting heartbeats Tracing every worst-case track [Chorus] [Bridge] Headlights on the window Sweep across the room Then they disappear I swear I hear your keys in the lock But it’s just my fear Just my fear [low vocal register] If you’re stuck at some intersection Arguing with fate and a yellow light Listen to my voice in your chest Love Let them honk Let them pass Just survive tonight [crescendo] I’ll keep the porch light burning Let the neighbors talk Let the soup go cold I want you late I want you breathing I want you old So old [Chorus]

Male vocals move from hushed, syncopated verses into a belted, melodic metal chorus. Guitars shift between tight palm-mutes and wide, open chords; atmospheric pads fill the gaps. Final chorus hits with stacked harmonies and a crushing halftime feel., electric, alternative r&b, progressive metal
