More than just a phase

Verse 1)

Remember those days, a blur of late-night drives

Fighting for a cause, living out our young lives

Thought I had it figured, a simple, easy truth

Friends were the foundation, the bedrock of my youth

She was just a distraction, a fleeting, pretty face

No room for complications, keeping up the reckless pace

Said "my friends over you," a mantra, loud and clear

Never thought that feeling would disappear

(Chorus)

But years flew by, and the static started to fade

The noise of the past, a promise I'd made

I still love my brothers, the crew, through and through

But something shifted, something different and new

This ain't just a moment, a temporary high

More than just a phase, beneath a different sky

It’s a quiet knowing, a steady, burning flame

Whispering your presence, calling out your name

(Verse 2)

We drifted apart, as friendships sometimes do

Life takes its turns, on paths both old and new

Found myself alone, in a quiet, empty space

Searching for a feeling, a familiar embrace

Then you reappeared, a ghost from yesterday

The laughter and the comfort, chasing doubts away

No grand declarations, no dramatic plea

Just a gentle whisper, "is there still a chance for me?"

(Chorus)

And years flew by, and the static started to fade

The noise of the past, a promise I'd made

I still love my brothers, the crew, through and through

But something shifted, something different and new

This ain't just a moment, a temporary high

More than just a phase, beneath a different sky

It’s a quiet knowing, a steady, burning flame

Whispering your presence, calling out your name

(Bridge)

The mosh pit memories, the anthems we would shout

They shaped who I am, no room for any doubt

But growth means evolving, seeing with new eyes

Understanding commitment, beneath more honest skies

It's not a betrayal, not a turning of the page

Just a deeper chapter, stepping onto a new stage

(Chorus)

And years flew by, and the static started to fade

The noise of the past, a promise I'd made

I still love my brothers, the crew, through and through

But something shifted, something different and new

This ain't just a moment, a temporary high

More than just a phase, beneath a different sky

It’s a quiet knowing, a steady, burning flame

Whispering your presence, calling out your name

(Outro)

Yeah, my friends are still here, a part of who I am

But now there's more to life, part of a bigger plan

More than just a phase, it’s where I want to be

With you right beside me, for all eternity.
