(Tempo: 122 BPM. Soundscape: Thick, pulsating sub-bass, shimmering wide synth pads, and a crisp, snapping electronic percussion.) (Intro: Heavy bass pulse. A singular, high-frequency synth bell hits once. Silence for half a second, then the beat drops in.) (Verse 1) I’m tracing the map of your palm in the dark Counting the lines where the secrets all start You’re humming a tune that you forgot how to sing And I’m just a wire, waiting for the ring You move like a fever, a slow-motion blur The lines of the room are starting to slur And you don’t even know that you’re pulling the thread Of every single word that I’ve ever left unsaid (Pre-Chorus) (Bass begins to oscillate faster, building tension) It’s a heavy kind of gravity Pulling on the edge of me And I can’t find the exit sign But I don’t mind the climb (Chorus) (Full sonic explosion: Pulsating pads, heavy rhythmic bass, layered vocals) Call me babe, like you mean it this time Call me babe, let the chemicals align I don’t need a reason, I don’t need a plan Just hold the horizon in the palm of your hand Oh, babe Yeah, just call me babe (Beat drop/Synth hook) (Verse 2) (Beat strips back to just the bass and a snap) The clock on the wall is a liar tonight The shadows are dancing in the neon light You’ve got that look, like a dare or a prayer And I’m just a passenger, hanging in the air We’re circling the center of a beautiful mess A thousand questions, but a one-word yes (Pre-Chorus) (Pads swell, filling the stereo field) It’s a heavy kind of gravity Pulling on the edge of me And I can’t find the exit sign But I don’t mind the climb (Chorus) (Maximum energy, driving bass) Call me babe, like you mean it this time Call me babe, let the chemicals align I don’t need a reason, I don’t need a plan Just hold the horizon in the palm of your hand Oh, babe Yeah, just call me babe (Bridge) (Beat disappears. Only wide, atmospheric synth pads remain. Vocals are intimate and close to the mic) Stop the world for a second Let the silence be the lesson (Beat enters slowly, a heartbeat thumping) One word One breath One way to feel alive... (Outro) (Chorus energy returns but feels more melodic/dreamy) Just call me babe (Pulsating bass continues) Yeah, call me babe (Fade out with a final, deep synth swell) Call me babe... Babe.
