I LEFT THE LIGHT ON

[Intro com sirene baixa + tamborzão entrando devagar + vinyl crackle] I left the light on... just in case... (Ad-libs: ei... volta... volta...) [Verse 1] I left the light on, just in case You changed your mind, turned 'round, retraced The words we said still haunt these halls Your silence louder than it all [Pre-Chorus] Every murmur sounds like goodbye But I still pray you'll change your mind (Ad-libs femininos: change your mind... êêê...) [Drop / Chorus montagem - repetir 2x com vocal chops + heavy 808 slide] Don’t walk away, not like this! (not like this!) Don’t turn your back on all we missed (all we missed!) If there's a chance, if there's a flame Don't close the door and break my heart Leave it cracked, leave a sign That you'll come back, given time... (given time... eco) [Verse 2] Your coat’s still hanging on the chair Like you just stepped out for some air But hours pass, and so do days I'm stuck in all the love we gave [Pre-Chorus] The keys still lying by the frame Maybe you'll need them someday (Ad-libs masculinos: volta... volta aí!) [Drop / Chorus explosivo - com layered ad-libs + sirens + gunshot samples] Don’t walk away, not like this! (não vai!) Don’t turn your back on all we missed (volta!) If there's a chance, if there's a flame Don't close the door and break my heart Leave it cracked, leave a sign That you'll come back, given time... (given time! êêê!) [Bridge - build-up com synth lead portamento + batida quebrada] I know we’re broken, I know we’re bruised But what we had, we can’t just lose If there's a murmur left in you Let it call me back to truth (Ad-libs: call me back... truth... truth...) [Final Chorus - max energy, mais camadas + female/male shouts] Don’t walk away, not like this! (not like this!) We’re more than pain, we’re worth the risk (worth the risk!) If there's a chance, if there's a flame Don’t close the door and break my heart Leave it cracked, leave a sign That you’ll come back... in time... (in time... in time... eco + fade percussion) [Outro fade com tamborzão diminuindo + vinyl crackle + reverb] I left the light on... just in case... (Ad-libs finais: volta... given time... eco: time... time...)
