[Intro] I'm still here. [Verse 1] Through the door, running on fumes, boots stick to the floor. Same smile, same lie — I've worn them both before. All the words I swallowed, all the hurt I hid from you — One kick from the bass drum and it all comes breaking through. I pull you by the collar, feel your breath against my skin. Kiss you through the feedback, let the vertigo kick in. I spent so long pretending I was made of solid steel. You laugh, I crack — and suddenly I know I'm real. [Pre-Chorus] You sing — I'll sing with you. We'll tear the dark in two. And when the whole room shakes, Hold on, whatever breaks. [Chorus] I'm still here — Between death and laughter. Let this moment Echo long after. I'm still here — With my heart on the line. If my voice gives out, Let your voice carry mine. [Post-Chorus] Sing with me. Sing with me. [Verse 2] Past the shuttered drugstores, racing down an empty street. No finish line, just open sky, the asphalt and the beat. My lipstick on your collar, and my voice is wearing thin. You ask me if I'm alright — I answer with a crooked grin. They kept promising "Someday," so I taught myself to wait. Now I'm spending every heartbeat before it gets too late. By the morning we'll be hoarse, out of step and short on sleep. Turns out the girl beneath the armor wasn't buried all that deep. [Pre-Chorus] You sing — I'll sing with you. We'll tear the dark in two. And when the whole room shakes, Hold on, whatever breaks. [Chorus] I'm still here — Between death and laughter. Let this moment Echo long after. I'm still here — With my heart on the line. If my voice gives out, Let your voice carry mine. [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] I thought there was nothing left under my skin. But there's a whole sleepless city still roaring within. Can you hear it? Can you hear it? [Breakdown] I'M STILL HERE! [Full stop] [Final Chorus] I'm still here — Between death and laughter. Let this moment Echo long after. I'm still here — With my heart on the line. If my voice gives out, Let your voice carry mine. [Post-Chorus] Sing with me. Sing with me. [Outro] Hear that? That's me.
