NO LONGER HERE
Alternative rock with post-grunge influences. Distorted electric guitars play thick power chords and melodic lead lines with heavy sustain and vibrato. A driving drum kit features a prominent snare and crashing cymbals. The bass guitar follows the kick drum with a saturated tone. Male vocals are delivered with a gritty, emotive belt in the choruses and a more restrained, breathy tone in the verses. The arrangement features dynamic shifts between dense, high-gain sections and more spacious, clean guitar passages. 150 BPM. Key of D Major. 4/4 time signature.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They said that we were wild dogs together
Straying through the dark, through any kind of weather
That we were untamable, jagged and loud
With you I felt free to do anything without being judged
In a world of fakes, we never once budged
We didn't give a fuck about what the others thought
Harder than the steel and the lessons we were taught
We were the bosses, wherever we went the street belonged to us
Igniting the concrete, leaving only the dust
We were afraid of nothing, we owned the night
[Vocal: Voice starts to strain]
Burning through the years, out of reach, out of sight...
[Chorus]
Come back with me, just one time!
Kick down the door, let the memories climb!
Come back for one last ride in an unknown city that we will have chosen by a coin toss!
Whatever the price, whatever the cost!
Come back, come back one last time!
Come help me fight against the icy stares!
Come, we are so bored, caught in these snares!
[Verse 2]
Thirty years gone and the clock is still stuck
The world's just a joke, a run of bad luck
The pavement is cold where we used to bleed
Now I’m just a ghost with no place and no need
[Vocal: Cracking with emotion]
The silence is heavy, the sky's turned to stone
Since you left me here to rot on my own...
[Bridge]
I can’t even talk about you without crying!
There’s no use in faking, no use in lying!
You are always present, in every heartbeat!
The void you leave is immense, like the space you took!
Why did you leave me all alone with all these assholes?
I’m a wreckage of man, a burnt-out book!
You big idiot... I miss you!
[Vocal: Long desperate scream]
IT’S A JAGGED OLD HOLE THAT I CAN’T GET THROUGH!
[Chorus]
Come back with me, just one time!
Kick down the door, let the memories climb!
Come back for one last ride in an unknown city that we will have chosen by a coin toss!
Whatever the price, whatever the cost!
Come back, come back one last time!
Come help me fight against the icy stares!
Come, we are so bored, caught in these snares!
[Outro]
One last ride...
You big idiot...
I miss you.
