Never Arrived

+ Show full styles

[Intro] (SFX: A heavy, sudden lightning crackle echoes through a dark space) (Breathy, layered "ah-ah" vocal harmonies, slow synth pulse) [Verse 1] You love me best when I’m completely numb. Look at this absolute mess we’ve become. Sitting in the quiet of a five-star room, Chasing a high that ended way too soon. You want a version of me I already killed. Drink the cheap champagne that we spilled. [Pre-Chorus] The storm didn't save us, it just washed the paint away. Nothing left for you to say. Turn it up. Let it burn. [Chorus] We built a paradise out of terrible lies. Look me in the face, look at my fucking eyes. You claim we made it, but the vision isn't clear— If this is heaven, why the fuck am I in tears? Yeah, we never arrived. We just survived. [Verse 2] (SFX: A sharp lightning strike cuts clean through the beat) Go ahead and blame it on the atmosphere. You only love me when I disappear. A beautiful disaster in a custom dress, Stumbling through the digital wilderness. You like the thrill, but you hate the price. Go fuck yourself and your paradise. [Bridge] (Drums cut out completely, heavy vocal echo, deep bass drone) No more signals. No more sparks. We’re just two strangers glowing in the dark. [Outro] (SFX: Distant thunder rumbles out as the synth chords slowly fade) We never arrived. Just a beautiful lie. Turn the lights out.
