LIGHTS DON'T FADE // Keebs × VoidSkull — FIVE MORE MINUTES
[SIGNATURE INTRO DROP — HUSKY FEMALE] [Fridge-door chime → tuned 4-note motif → immediate kick] Two-seventeen, corner store, Rain caught shining by the door. You said, “five more minutes, stay,” Like we could keep the morning away. [VERSE 1] Your sleeve is cold against my hand, We missed the train, we never planned. Cars move past, the street goes quiet, But next to you I don’t mind it. You laugh low, I look away, ’Cause if I speak, I might just say I know this night can’t stay the same, So hold me while it still has a name. [PRE-CHORUS] Come a little closer, Don’t explain. If this ends at sunrise, Let it wait. [CHORUS — HUSKY FEMALE / LAYERED] Take me where the lights don’t fade, Hold me in the mess we made. Don’t let go, don’t let go, I can feel it in my soul. If tomorrow pulls us separate, Give me one more minute late. Don’t let go, don’t let go, Not until the signs go cold. [VOCAL CHOPS — GLITCHED] Take me… me… me… Don’t let go… go… go… Lights… lights… Fade… fade… fade… [BOUNCE WIN] [Chops become syncopated answers to the bass; melody stays intact] Don’t— don’t— Don’t let go. One more minute, Nice and slow. [VERSE 2 — MORE INTIMATE] Your phone lights up, you turn it down, No one else can reach us now. There’s coffee cooling by your side, You draw a heart, then change your mind. I catch your wrist before you leave, You smile like you already see The thing I’m trying not to show: I’m scared of how much I don’t want to go. [PRE-CHORUS — BUILDING] Come a little closer, Lose the time. Let the whole world wake up, You’re still mine. [OPENING WIN / FULL CHORUS] Take me where the lights don’t fade, Hold me in the mess we made. Don’t let go, don’t let go, I can feel it in my soul. If tomorrow pulls us separate, Give me one more minute late. Don’t let go, don’t let go, Not until the signs go cold. [BREAKDOWN — PIANO / AIR / WHISPERS] [Opening motif returns softly] You said, “five more minutes.” I said, “make it ten.” [Whisper] Don’t let morning in. [MELODIC LIFT] Take me… Where the lights… Don’t fade… Hold me… Like you mean it… This time… [PRESSURE WIN] [Harder kick, tighter hats, same melody] Don’t let go— Even when the room turns bright. Don’t let go— Even when we lose the night. [FINAL BUILD — DRY VOCAL] If this is the last minute… Make it ours. [Brief silence] [FINAL MEGA WIN — FULL K-POP HARMONIES / TRANCE LIFT] Take me where the lights don’t fade, Hold me in the mess we made. Don’t let go, don’t let go, I can feel it in my soul. If tomorrow pulls us separate, Give me one more minute late. Don’t let go, don’t let go, Not until the signs go cold. [FINAL-ONLY COUNTERLINE] Stay with me— Stay with me— Even when the morning knows. Take me where the lights don’t fade, Hold me like you’re not afraid. Don’t let go— [DRY STOP] Don’t let go. [Motif returns one octave higher + new counterline] [OUTRO — CLOSE WHISPER] Five more minutes.
