[Intro – reversed vocal swell + soft Rhodes] Falling… in slow motion… [Verse 1 – hushed baritone] We’re talkin’ in circles, voices on mute Your eyes say goodbye while your lips still move Every word lands softer than it should Like we both know this fire’s burnin’ out for good [Pre-Chorus – rising harmonies] Time stretched thin, frames start to tear I see the end and I’m already there [Chorus – huge falsetto + gang] We’re a slow motion crash, beautiful and broken Watchin’ the glass fall, words left unspoken Love in reverse, still feels like a flash We’re a slow motion crash [Verse 2 – rap-sung, closer] Your hand leaves mine like it forgot the way Still smell your perfume in the words you don’t say Every heartbeat’s a frame I can’t delete We’re perfect in ruin, bittersweet [Pre-Chorus] Gravity wins, but we float for a while Smilin’ through the wreckage in beautiful denial [Chorus – even bigger] We’re a slow motion crash, beautiful and broken Watchin’ the glass fall, words left unspoken Love in reverse, still feels like a flash We’re a slow motion crash (Oh-oh-oh) Slow motion crash! [Post-Chorus – viral hook] Na-na-na, slow motion… Na-na-na, we’re fallin’… [Final Chorus – key up to G minor, stadium size] SLOW MOTION CRASH – we were art in the break Every piece of the fall was a choice that we made Still the most beautiful thing I’ll ever lose Slow motion crash… and I’d do it again for you [Outro – reversed vocal + single heartbeat] Crash… slow motion… crash…
