Verse 1 (quiet) The fog learned how to breathe today It’s sleeping in the beams Chorus (explode) Don’t look out, don’t look down Something’s swimming in the sound Outro (quiet) The light keeps turning anyway Verse 2 (slightly bigger, more surreal) Bootprints filling up with silver light That wasn’t there before Tide keeps moving furniture Across the ocean floor There’s a bell that rings offshore But nobody can find the buoy And something keeps rehearsing Every voice I ever used ⸻ Pre-Chorus You can taste it in the wind and rain You can’t tell warning signs from pain ⸻ Chorus (full band, more desperate) Don’t look out, don’t look down Something’s swimming in the sound Every wave is saying something new And none of it is meant for you Don’t call out, don’t turn around The dark knows how to mimic towns If the light keeps turning, let it do It’s the only thing still telling truth ⸻ Bridge (drop to near silence, eerie) If it learns the pattern of the light Does it learn the shape of me? If it learns the way I say goodbye Does it follow when I leave? (organ drone + bass pulse + distant guitar feedback) ⸻ Final Chorus (big, emotional, slightly overwhelming) Don’t look out, don’t look down Something’s moving under town Every wave is closer than it seems Every shore is thinner than a dream Don’t call out, don’t turn around The night is learning how we sound If the light keeps turning, let it do It might be the last thing guiding you ⸻ Outro (quiet, lonely, pretty) The light keeps turning anyway The light keeps turning anyway The light keeps turning anyway
