Next Steps

​[Intro] ​[Acoustic guitar strumming, slow and organic. Vocal starts intimate.] Turning the key, unlocking the door Leaving my tears right here on the floor Whispering goodbye to the ghost of yesterday I’m packing my bags, I’m on my way ​[Verse 1] ​[Steady acoustic guitar rhythm, introducing a light, rhythmic country clap] Cold cup of tea sitting on the oak wood Chasing the shadows where we once stood Your smile in the frame, yeah, it used to sting But I’m clearing the air, changing everything ​[Verse 2] ​[Bassline creeps in, driving the rhythm forward] Letting my hair down in the city breeze A brand new lipstick, doing what I please Love wasn’t enough, and now I see I grew into the woman I was meant to be ​[Pre-Chorus] ​[The acoustic guitar syncopates. The beat starts to climb. Build-up begins.] I’ll be alright, saying it out loud Untying the knots, breaking through the cloud Listen to the beat of my boots on the street Getting ready for the next one I’m gonna meet! [Snare rolls rising, vocal getting more powerful] Here we go, yeah, here we go! ​[Chorus] ​[The DROP. Full EDM synth explosion blended with a driving country banjo/guitar riff. High energy, anthemic!] No more tears, I’m breaking the chains! Dancing right through the emotional rain! Looking for a love that’s meant for me Setting my heart and my future free! Oh, I’m moving on! (Yeah, I'm moving on!) Oh, I’m moving on! ​[Drop / Solo] ​[Main EDM Synth Melodic Drop fused with a fast, upbeat Country Fiddle or Banjo solo. Pure festival energy!] ​[Bridge] ​[Music drops out completely except for a heavy, stomping four-on-the-floor kick drum and a soaring vocal] I won’t forget the scars, I’ll wear them proud They made me who I am, singing out loud But from this moment, I’m running wild Gonna find my smile, gonna find my style! ​[Final Chorus] ​[Maximum energy. Pyros going off in your mind. Full production!] No more tears, I’m breaking the chains! Dancing right through the emotional rain! Looking for a love that’s meant for me Setting my heart and my future free! Oh, I’m moving on! (Yeah, I'm moving on!) Oh, I’m moving on! ​[Outro] ​[The electronic synths fade out, leaving just the acoustic guitar and a soft echo] Leaving a goodbye to the girl yesterday... Sun is coming up, I’m on my way. [Final acoustic guitar strum]
