[Intro] [style: hard rock, soulful, classic rock, spatial audio] Neon hum on a rain‑glazed street Cold air chewing at my teeth Someone laughs, but it’s far away Feet stuck where I swore I wouldn’t stay [Verse 1] [style: hard rock, female vocals] Kept a notebook full of starts Crossed them out before the sparks Told myself I needed proof Let the chance slip through the roof [Pre-chorus] Every memory on repeat Held me tight around the feet Stayed in place as years slid by Too wired up to even try [Chorus] [style: thumping beat, hard rock] Why not cut the cord, drop the weight Why’d I let doubt choose my fate Why not break the lock on this key Why’d I hand the wheel, not ride free [Verse 2] [style: hard rock] Heard the basement band next door Shook the frame, rattled the floor Dreams kept pounding out a groove But I never let myself move [Bridge] [style: blues hard rock, string bending guitar solo] [Guitar solo — soaring, bent notes, echoing] All the noise I shut down then Rises up and hits again Faces I tried to erase Come back sharp and claim their place [Chorus] [style: thumping beat, hard rock] Why not cut the cord, drop the weight Why’d I let doubt choose my fate Why not break the lock on this key Why’d I hand the wheel, not ride free [Emotional Bridge] [style: soulful, female vocals] Can’t rewind the nights I stalled But I can answer when I’m called My pulse still stings, but it holds still I’m done with standing on the sill [Finale] [style: hard rock, epic guitar] I’ll take the road I used to dodge Let the loud world leave its scotch No more letting chances rot Tomorrow’s open—so why not [Fade Out and End]
