December Light Speed

V5

(Intro - A rapid, filtering synth sequence introduces a massive beat drop. Heavy, four-on-the-floor kick drum drives the rhythm. Synth bells hit a fast, ascending melody.) (G) (D) (Em) (C) (Vocal sample, filtered): Hit the lights! Go! (Verse 1) (G) Two weeks stuck in the slow lane, waiting for the sign to be lit (D) The city was gray, every single day just a placeholder bit (Em) Now the air is sharp and clean, and the speakers are screaming your name out loud (C) Breaking the silence, escaping the boring, predictable crowd. (G) I left the worries in a snow drift, left the deadlines behind me fast (D) 'Cause the feeling I'm chasing is the one that is built to last the whole holiday (Em) Every street corner draped in neon red and white and gold (C) The best damn story that has ever been told. (Pre-Chorus - The synth melody swells dramatically, adding layered percussion. The vocals gain urgency and a hopeful lift.) (C) I swear the world got faster when the first flake hit the glass and it fell (G) We're not slowing down now, we're breaking free from the spell and the hell of routine (D) Forget the past, baby, there's only one thing I crave and I seek (Em) This is the highest high of the whole damn year's peak! (Chorus - Maximum, anthemic sound. Heavy synth chords and tight, punchy drums. Vocals are high, bright, and stacked with harmonies.) (G) Oh, we're flying at December Light Speed! Yeah, the feeling is loud and it's true! (D) Everything I wanted is standing right here, wrapped up in you! (Em) The beat is electric, the energy's maxed out and it's strong (C) We found the rhythm where we truly belong! (G) We're spinning beneath the string lights, got no reason to slow down and stop (D) This perfect moment is soaring right over the top of the chart and the pop (Em) Trading the silence for the sound of your laughter so clear (C) Yeah, the best day of the year is finally here! (Verse 2) (G) We skipped the formal party, ditched the boring, polite farewell and the line (D) 'Cause dancing in the kitchen with you is universally fine and divine (Em) We put on the worst holiday sweaters, the ones with the bells and the gleam (C) Living inside this absolute, perfect Christmas dream. (G) I used to fear the holidays, fear the pressure and the cost that I pay (D) But with you, every single weight and worry just melts away and decays (Em) You are the static killer, the one who brings the signal in clean (C) The perfect, bright ending to this whole damn scene. (Outro - The main synth melody repeats, accelerating into a chaotic, final flurry of synth bells and kick drums before cutting out abruptly.) (G) (D) (Em) (C) (Yelled): LIGHT SPEED! NOW! (G) (D) (Em) (C) (Final bright chord and synth bell hit, then silence.)
