Lightning Don't Strike Twice

An emotionally driven alternative rock track with post-grunge influence, built on a steady ~120 BPM forward-leaning groove, Verses are intimate and restrained, led by a shimmering 12-string acoustic guitar and clean electric textures, with soft, conversational vocals, The arrangement builds gradually through layered instrumentation into a powerful, wide chorus with full-band impact—palm-muted rhythm guitars open into sustained power chords, supported by a punchy, consistent drum groove and strong low-mid presence, Vocals lift into a controlled, sustained delivery in the chorus without oversinging, Transitions are smooth and additive, not abrupt, The overall dynamic arc moves from reflection to determination to release, ending in a grounded, resolved finish, No excessive ambience or overproduction—clarity, balance, and emotional presence are key

[Verse 1]
Lightning in the distance,
I see your face, in the afterglow
When my eyes are closed,
When the lights are low

Your with me in the night time,
When the stars are high,
When I look to the Sky
The lightning in the Distance…

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you're here by me in my memory, way it'll always be 
Never take away our yesterday, your always here with me

[Verse 2]
As the thunder rolls,
Know I don’t hear a sound
The memory of your voice,
In the rain coming down

A vision in the distance fades,
As I walk along
Your silhouette is silent,
Lets me know I’m all alone…

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you're here by me in my memory, way it'll always be 
Never take away our yesterday, nothin’ anyone would say

[Chorus]
Lightning don’t strike twice, do you believe me
I won’t ever see your light, that don’t please me
The thing I know is it’s all gone, ‘n you can’t see me
I have to leave this place behind, cause you won’t need me

[solo]

[Bridge]
Lightning don’t strike twice, 
‘N your voice still calls my name
It’s fading in the background, 
But the echo stays the same
A final call, the winds prevail
A passing moment, children wail 
Slip away, but never leave
Your memory… will stay with me

[Verse 3]
I want to wonder empty streets,
No trace of where I’ve been
My futures cast in weathered stone
But I’ll still see you again

The sky breaks open in silent fire,
But never the same place
No second chance, no final words,
Don’t strike twice in that space

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you're here by me in my memory, way it'll always be 
Never take away our yesterday, no matter what is here today

[Chorus]
Lightning don’t strike twice, do you believe me
I won’t ever see your light, that don’t please me
The thing I know is it’s all gone, ‘n you can’t see me
I had to leave this place behind, you’ll always be with me

[Outro]
Lightning don’t strike twice, do you believe me
I won’t ever see your light, that don’t please me
The thing I know is it’s all gone, ‘n you can’t see me
I had to leave this place behind, cause you don’t need me

[End]
