(Verse 1) (Fast, palm-muted downstrokes. High energy, slightly distorted) The headlights flickered like a dying pulse In a parking lot where the concrete felt false I was checking my watch, counting seconds to fail Just a ghost in a zip-up, chasing a trail Of a life I’d imagined but couldn’t quite grip While the world in my pocket started to slip Then you stepped off the curb in a thrift-store dress And my heartbeat became a beautiful mess. (Pre-Chorus) (Tempo slows slightly, bass guitar drives the melody) I didn't see the sign, I didn't hear the chime But the clock in my chest just stopped keeping time And I felt a shift in the gravity's pull Like a void in my spirit suddenly full. (Chorus) (Full explosion of sound. Double-time drums. Emotional, soaring vocals) And it wasn't a spark, it was a lightning strike The kind of collision that the cautious dislike! You didn't walk in, you descended in gold A story of mercy that’s yet to be told Yeah, the stars stepped aside just to let you through And I woke up screaming, "It was always you!" It was a hand from the clouds, it was a gift from the blue A love from above that pulled me through! (Verse 2) (Punchy, rhythmic. Snare hits on every beat) Now we’re screaming the lyrics to a song we both hate In a beat-up sedan, just tempting some fate And I look at your eyes and I see the design A blueprint of something far better than mine You’re the glitch in the system, the crack in the wall The only thing steady while I started to fall You didn't just find me, you rescued the wreck Of a heart that was hanging by a thin nylon thread. (Pre-Chorus) (Build-up. Snare roll increasing in speed) I didn't ask for a miracle, I didn't know the way But the sky opened up on a Tuesday in May And the weight of the world just floated away. (Chorus) (Maximum volume. High energy) And it wasn't a spark, it was a lightning strike The kind of collision that the cautious dislike! You didn't walk in, you descended in gold A story of mercy that’s yet to be told Yeah, the stars stepped aside just to let you through And I woke up screaming, "It was always you!" It was a hand from the clouds, it was a gift from the blue A love from above that pulled me through! (Bridge) (Quiet. Just a clean guitar and a steady kick drum. Intimate, almost whispering) They say the universe is cold and it’s blind That we’re just fragments left behind But I felt the current, I felt the divine Slinging your heartbeat right into mine... (Pause) (Screamed) RIGHT INTO MINE! (Guitar Solo - Fast, melodic, slightly chaotic) (Outro) (Half-time tempo. Heavy power chords) Yeah, you dropped from the ceiling of a broken sky And you gave me a reason not to say goodbye (Faster) From the heights! From the glow! Where the lucky ones go! (Sudden stop) (Single, clean guitar chord) You were the love... sent from above. (Final crash of drums and feedback)
