[Intro | Synth pulse slowly rises, soft kick drum, shimmering guitar arpeggio fades in]
You left the lights on but nobody's home. Smiling at strangers but still all alone.
[Verse 1 | Instruments drop to minimal synth and soft kick only]
Pulling me under, The weight's getting old, I reach for your hand but the room's gone cold, You used to call just to hear my voice, Now silence feels like your only choice. Oh.
[Chorus | Full synth swell, drum kit kicks in, bass guitar enters]
In this life it's just us, You know it's not the same as before, In this life it's just us, We don't feel this way anymore, As it goes, as it goes, You know it's not the same.
[Verse 2 | Instruments strip back again, intimate feel]
Pick up the phone, You're sitting alone, Counting the cracks on the ceiling at night, When did you lose all your fight?
Your sister tries but you shut the door, She just needs to know you're okay. Oh.
[Chorus | Electric guitar layer added, fuller emotional sound]
In this life it's just us, You know it's not the same as before, In this life it's just us, We don't feel this way anymore, As it goes, as it goes, You know it's not the same.
[Bridge | Beat softens, synth melody carries the emotion alone]
New town, clear head, move ahead, I don't wanna talk about the way that it was, Let go, move on, don't look back, I don't wanna think about who moved on first.
[Outro Chorus | Instruments slowly peel away, only synth pulse and soft kick remain]
As it goes, You know it's not the same as before, As it goes, as it goes.
[Outro | Synth pulse fades gently to silence, final single guitar note rings out]
