Lyrics
Verse 1
The room was spinning loud, a sea of moving shadows
I was anchored to the floor, chasing after echoes
Then the crowd just split apart, a sudden shift in space
Everything went quiet when I caught your face.
Chorus
I saw her—
And the lights went flashing.
She was staring,
And I was folding.
She did it to me again,
And God, I hope this doesn't end.
Verse 2
Time is moving heavy, like water in the air
You didn't say a word, you just left it hanging there
My defenses starting breaking, tumbling card by card
Trying to keep my footing shouldn't be this hard.
Chorus
I saw her—
And the lights went flashing.
She was staring,
And I was folding.
She did it to me again,
And God, I hope this doesn't end.
Bridge
(Music drops down to just a throbbing drumbeat and a low synth pad)
Flashing red, flashing blue...
The room is full, but it’s only you.
Take the pieces I have left,
Take my caution, take my breath.
Guitar / Synth Solo
(Slow, bleeding notes with lots of echo and delay)
Outro
Still staring...
Still folding...
Don't let it end.
Just do it to me again.
(Fade out on a single, pulsing bass note)
