Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Holes in our shoes Sharpie on our backpacks Detention slips stuffed In the same cracked Vans Parents on the porch Talking like we’d vanish We were on the curb Turning fear into damage [Pre-Chorus] Every slammed door Every hot shout They called us lost kids We were just found out [Chorus] We were loud for a reason (hey!) Screaming just to stay breathing Every curse Every cracked front tooth Was a prayer said wrong but it still came true We were wild We were bleeding Breaking rules like we needed them Didn’t know what we were fighting back then Now I’d do it again I’d do it again [Verse 2] Burned our tongues On gas station coffee Split one pizza Paid in loose change and sorry Promises made Under flickering signs You said “If this is failure I want it for life” [Pre-Chorus] Every cheap night Sleeping on floors Broke our own hearts Then kicked down more doors [Chorus] We were loud for a reason (woah) Screaming just to stay breathing Every scar Every late-night dare Was a flare shot up saying “We’re still here” We were wild We were needing Every bad choice to mean something Didn’t know what we were saving back then Now I’d do it again I’d do it again [Bridge] They said “you’ll regret it” Guess this is regret then Smiling in the mirror At the mess I’m in You held my wrist When the world felt sharp Said “If we’re going under Let’s tear it apart” (tear it apart) [Chorus] We were loud for a reason (hey!) Screaming just to stay breathing Every bruise Every bright red eye Built a spine that bends but it won’t comply We were wild We were dreaming Turned our chaos into meaning Didn’t know we were learning to live Now I’d do it again I’d do it again

rock, Pop-punk band energy, mixed vocals trading lines and gang-shouted hooks. Crunchy palm-muted guitars in the verses, drums pushing a fast 4-on-the-floor kick. Choruses explode with wide open chords, octave leads, and layered “whoa-oh” backups. Mid-song breakdown drops to half-time with bass and toms before a final, key-lift chorus that rides feedback and crowd vocals., loud, punk, pop
