Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro — Clean guitars → rising distortion [Instrumentation: Clean electric guitar with delay, low synth pad, distant tom hits, reversed cymbal swell] [Clean guitar arpeggio rings in minor key.] [Low whisper vocal] Four seasons passed and you did not change You keep your love on a cold iron chain [Deep choir hum builds under it] ⸻ [Instrumentation: Palm-muted guitars, melodic bass, tight kick/snare, subtle synth pad] Struggle, you struggle six times on the double Feeling the pressure but never grow subtle Patience, your patience is wearing away Balancing hope on a rope made of fray Knuckles turn white as you tighten the chain Salt in the wind mixing sweat with the rain Four seasons passed and you did not change You keep your love on a cold iron chain ⸻ [Half-time drums | Guitar harmony leads] But the tighter you hold The farther it goes The sea does not answer control ⸻ [Chorus — Big melodic hook] [Full distorted guitars | Harmony leads | Double kick enters] If you love it Loosen your hold Not every treasure is meant to be controlled Let the tide decide where it goes Trust what is true when the wild wind blows Stop fighting the pull of the blue Untie the boat And it’ll drift back to you [Backing gang vocals] Drift back… drift back to you ⸻ [Guitars thicker, bass grinding, tom fills] Pleading, you’re pleading while pulling it tighter Building a harbor that only grows quieter Watching horizons with salt in your sight Guarding the dock through the dead of the night Hands full of fear dressed up as devotion Anchors drop heavy in restless emotion Four seasons passed and you did not change Still keeping love on a cold iron chain ⸻ The harder you fight The faster it flies Storms never listen to ties ⸻ [Lead guitar counter-melody] If you love it Loosen your hold Not every treasure is meant to be controlled Let the tide decide where it goes Trust what is true when the wild wind blows Stop fighting the pull of the blue Untie the boat And it’ll drift back to you ⸻ [Drop to clean guitar + choir pad | slow tom heartbeat] Love is not rope It is current and air The more that you bind it The less it is there Open your palms Let the whitecaps decide What’s meant to return Will not run from the tide [Guitar solo rises out of the last line ] ⸻ Guitar Solo [Dual harmony leads melodic metal style | tempo steady | emotional phrasing] ⸻ Final Chorus — Huge [Double kick driving | choir backing vocals] If you love it Loosen your hold Not every treasure is meant to be controlled Let the tide decide where it goes Trust what is true when the wild wind blows Stop fighting the pull of the blue Untie the boat And it’ll drift back to you Repeat last line with vocal climb: Untie the boat… And it’ll drift back… Drift back to you ⸻
