## Copyright © Riceau Lyrics by @Riceau, audio creative direction by collaborating with my AI team, audio by Suno Forged @ The Soundry - join the Discord: https://discord.gg/JPSNUHKf Created for the Soundry Challenge League Challenge 1 - I didn't go for the Style Roulette: You must build your entire track around one of the two hooks below. You’re allowed to adjust line lengths slightly for flow—but otherwise, treat the hook as sacred. 🟣 Option 1: Fair was never in the plan, But we still break like it began. Drowning in ourselves— (drowning in ourselves) 🟠 Option 2: Drag the night across my face, Burn out stars behind my eyes. Shut it down, make it fade— Maybe then I won’t mind. 🎯 Requirements: Due Date: 25 August 2025 14:00 Length: Under 7 minutes Style: Whatever your noisy heart desires. Mention: Soundry Challenge League in the caption, and add SCL [#SCL1] to the title 🎲 BONUS ROUND – Style Roulette: Want an extra point? Leave a comment and we’ll spin the Diskrot™ Style Randomizer. ⚠️ Warning: once it spins, you’re locked in. Ignore the style at your peril… and lose a point. 💬 Extra Bonus: Work the server’s tagline "Bring your Noise" into your lyrics, and score another point for creativity. ## [Verse 1] I lie awake all through the night I try to sleep but it is a fight My body is tired, my brain hardwired To think of you much more than required It's not torture, it isn't at all It's feels more like a wake up call Showing me that it has been too long Since I knew that I could really belong And now I stare intensely at my ceiling Still getting used to immensely feeling [Pre-Chorus] Morning approaches and I'm still awake And I'm contemplating fear of heartbreak [Chorus] Drag the night across my face, Burn out stars behind my eyes. Shut it down, make it fade— Maybe then I won’t mind. [Verse 2] I wasn't looking and I wasn't ready Look at me now, I'm feeling unsteady You know the saying: "shoot for the moon, If you miss, you're still among stars" Well that's why I swoon While thinking 'bout ours The ones that always shine so bright That bring color to the darkest night That's what you do and why I'm scared Hope they were real, those moments we shared [Pre-Chorus] Morning approaches and I'm still awake And I'm contemplating fear of heartbreak [Chorus] Drag the night across my face, Burn out stars behind my eyes. Shut it down, make it fade— Maybe then I won’t mind. [Bridge] Morning so close now, ceiling unchanged Still staring at it, mind feels constrained Alarm clock starts ringing as if to taunt My continued thoughts that are filled with want But it's not a bother that I really mind May be tired but in thoughts of you I find Hope for a future that will make me whole So here's my surrender, you take control Mind filled with static, until your voice Tuned it correctly so please bring your noise [Chorus] Drag the night across my face, Burn out stars behind my eyes. Shut it down, make it fade— Maybe then I won’t mind.
