[Intro] Low guitar… slow bend… one note held just a second too long [Verse 1] You tilt your head like you hear it too That quiet shift when the air turns new No one’s touched… but something’s there Like the room just learned how to stare Boots on the floor, heartbeat in time With every string that starts to climb And you smile like you feel it too That line getting thinner between us two [Pre-Chorus] And that riff… slides low, then climbs Same way your eyes move over mine [Chorus] We’re on the edge of the sound Where the silence starts getting loud Every note pulling tighter now Like we’re about to fall somehow You don’t move but I still sway Like the music’s got its way And damn… that guitar don’t lie It knows exactly what we’re trying to hide [Verse 2] Your fingers tap to a slower beat Like you’re counting down what we shouldn’t be And I swear that space between Feels thinner than it’s ever been Amp hum buzzes under skin Like it’s daring us to give in Not a word… not a touch But suddenly it’s all too much [Pre-Chorus] And that lick… sharp, then smooth Like the way you almost move [Chorus] We’re on the edge of the sound Where control is breaking down Every chord dragging it out Till we forget what this was about You don’t reach but I still feel Every second turning real And damn… that guitar cuts deep Like it’s playing secrets we don’t keep [Bridge] Guitar bends… higher now… almost crying One step… that’s all it takes One breath… and something breaks You look at me like you might Tip this whole thing over tonight And the strings just scream it clear What we’ve both been holding here No more space left to pretend This isn’t where we’re about to end [Final Chorus] We’re on the edge of the sound And it’s pulling us down now Every note saying “don’t stop” Every pause saying “not now” You don’t have to cross the line It’s already blurred in time Yeah… the fall’s already begun… We just haven’t hit it yet
