[Verse 1] [soft pad, light percussion — vocals intimate]
I was seventeen with a head full of noise
Thought the world would bend to a reckless voice
Fell down hard, but I learned to stand
With broken shoes and empty hands
---
[Pre-Chorus] [rising synths building tension]
And every road was a question mark
I was searching in the dark
[kick drum builds → snare roll → release into chorus]
---
[Chorus 1] [big, melodic lift, anthemic]
We’re running out of days, so let’s not fade away
Every moment’s a flame, it’s gonna be okay
We’re running out of days, don’t let it slip away
If tomorrow never comes, we still had today
[Drop → euphoric synth riff takes the melody, crowd chants echo] “oh-oh-oh-oh”
---
[Verse 2] [beat kicks in stronger, vocals confident]
I’ve seen faces lost in the city glow
Chasing time but they don’t even know
Every heartbeat’s more than a clock
It’s a song that never stops
---
[Pre-Chorus] [hi-hats rise, vocal layering builds suspense]
And every dream is a beating heart
You just have to play your part
[beat strips → silence for half a bar → chorus slams back in]
---
[Chorus 2] [anthemic, second rhyme variation]
We’re running out of days, so let’s not fade away
Every moment’s a flame, it’s gonna be okay
We’re running out of days, don’t let it slip away
If tomorrow never comes, we still had today
[Drop → hands-in-the-air melody, vocal chops echoing] “okay-ay-ay”
---
[Bridge] [breakdown — kick and bass drop out, pads + vox only]
Time is a thief, but it can’t steal this
Every scar we’ve made becomes a gift
[rising synth swell → vocal reverb heavy → kick drops back HARD]
---
[Final Chorus] [massive, layered harmonies, final rhyme variation]
We’re running out of days, so let’s not fade away
Every moment’s a flame, it’s gonna be okay
We’re running out of days, don’t let it slip away
If tomorrow never comes, we still had today
[Final drop → longest, euphoric synth solo. Crowd chanting “oh-oh-oh” as drums cut, melody carries outro, fade out on echoing chords.]
