Verse 1
This empty space is echoing,
I always said I'd let you fly.
But now I'm watching the horizon,
Waiting for a long goodbye.
I never should have compromised,
Or fed the hunger in your eyes.
You grew into a towering tree,
And left me buried as a seed.
Pre-Chorus (Faster, rhythmic, drums start building)
Echoes of the things you said,
Spinning circles in my head.
I’m just hanging by a thread,
Can’t un-cry the tears I bled.
Chorus (Explosive, full band/heavy synths dropping in)
Swept away by every promise that you made!
I was the one who climbed the mountain in the shade!
Everything I did, every single part of me,
Was just to see you—
Just to see you free.
Verse 2 (Punchy, driving bassline, faster vocal delivery)
The roots you laid have broken through the ground,
While I'm still hiding somewhere out of bounds.
You're chasing down the sun in every sky,
And I'm just watching from the shadows passing by.
I told myself I wouldn't pull you back,
But now my world is fading into black.
You got the sky, the stars, the galaxy,
And left me tangled in the memory.
Pre-Chorus (High tension, rising synth riser)
Echoes of the things you said,
Spinning circles in my head.
I’m just hanging by a thread,
Can’t un-cry the tears I bled.
Chorus (Massive energy, maximum volume)
Swept away by every promise that you made!
I was the one who climbed the mountain in the shade!
Everything I did, every single part of me,
Was just to see you—
Just to see you free.
Bridge (Music cuts out almost entirely. Very slow, intimate vocals, building back up to a crescendo)
If I could rewind the hands of time...
Would I still let you cross the line?
(Drum fill kicks in)
I gave you the wings, I took the fall!
I broke my own heart to give you it all!
Guitar Solo / Dance Break (120-130 BPM high-energy instrumental section)
Final Chorus (Maximized emotion, adding background vocal runs/ad-libs)
Swept away by every promise that you made!
I was the one who climbed the mountain in the shade!
Everything I did, every single part of me,
Was just to see you—
Just to see you free.
Outro (Music fading out, returning to the moody atmosphere of Verse 1)
Yeah, you're a towering tree...
And I'm still a seed.
Just to see you free.
