[Intro - rain ambience, lonely piano]

[Male Voice A - close, fragile]
I miss the days when I could talk and laugh
for hours.
Now it all feels like a pipe dream.

[Male Voice B - low, distant]
I know that room.
I know that silence.
I know what it means
when your own name feels far away.

[Verse 1]

[Male Voice A]
I miss the ways I could feel accomplished,
empowered,
full and abundant, bursting at every seam.
Now I watch as each moment goes sour,
chasing a ghost of forgotten dreams.
My soul, just waiting to be devoured,
floating in limbo, watching myself go upstream.

[Male Voice B]
I've walked with a weight I couldn't explain,
smiled through the noise while I swallowed the pain.
Thought I had to carry every piece alone,
like asking for a hand meant losing my own.

But hear me—
you don't have to call this strength.
You don't have to disappear
just to make it through the day.

[Pre-Chorus - alternating]

[Male Voice A]
I'll never forget the way I felt that day—

[Male Voice B]
Then don't forget you're still here today.

[Male Voice A]
I just want to break away—

[Male Voice B]
Then give me one breath.
Don't give the dark your name.

[Chorus - duet]

[Male Voice A]
I'll never forget the way I felt that day—

[Male Voice B]
(Hollow inside)

[Male Voice A]
I'll never find my way out—

[Male Voice B]
(Lost in time)

[Male Voice A]
I just want to break away—

[Male Voice B]
(Everything's on the line)

[Male Voice A]
But I can't save myself this time.

[Both]
You don't have to save yourself alone tonight.

[Drop A - emotional piano motif into restrained Melbourne Bounce]
[Wordless duet chops from “this time” / “tonight”]

[Verse 2]

[Male Voice A]
I remember the day we played in the rain
for hours.
Feels like just yesterday.
I remember the way it felt to be admired,
like for a moment I knew who I was.

Now I watch as each moment goes sour,
chasing a ghost of forgotten dreams.
My soul, just waiting to be devoured,
floating in limbo, watching myself go upstream.

[Male Voice B]
Maybe the rain didn't change.
Maybe we did.
Maybe the person you miss
isn't gone—
just buried under everything since.

I can't promise the hurt disappears.
I can't drag you back to yesterday.
But I can stand beside you in the dark
until you choose another step.

[Pre-Chorus 2]

[Male Voice A]
What if I don't know where to go?

[Male Voice B]
Then nowhere has to happen all at once.

[Male Voice A]
What if I fall apart again?

[Male Voice B]
Then I stay for the pieces.
We start from one.

[Chorus 2 - roles evolve]

[Male Voice B]
You'll never forget the way you felt that day—

[Male Voice A]
(Hollow inside)

[Male Voice B]
But you can still find another way—

[Male Voice A]
(Lost in time)

[Male Voice B]
You said you want to break away—

[Male Voice A]
(Everything's on the line)

[Both]
And you don't have to save yourself alone this time.

[Drop B - stronger bounce, rephrased motif, vocal answers]

[Breakdown - near silent, rain returns]

[Male Voice A - spoken]
I don't need you to fix me.

[Male Voice B - spoken]
Good.
I'm not here to fix you.

[Male Voice A]
Then why are you still here?

[Male Voice B]
Because you are.

[Final Build - piano grows, heartbeat kick]

[Male Voice A]
I can't save myself—

[Male Voice B]
Then don't do it alone.

[Male Voice A]
I can't find the way—

[Male Voice B]
Then take one step.

[Both - rising]
One breath.
One step.
One more night.

[One-beat silence]

[Final Chorus / Mega Win]

[Male Voice A]
I'll never forget the way I felt that day—

[Male Voice B]
(Hollow inside)

[Male Voice A]
I'll never find my way out—

[Male Voice B]
(Not all at once)

[Male Voice A]
I just want to break away—

[Male Voice B]
(Then stay with me tonight)

[Both]
I can't save myself this time,
but I don't have to face it all alone.

[Both - harmony]
If the old me is somewhere in the rain,
maybe I don't need to become him again.
Maybe I can carry what remains
and still become someone I haven't met.

[Final melodic drop - new soaring countermelody]

[Both voices - soft chops]
Not alone.
Not alone.
Not alone this time.

[Outro - piano and rain]

[Male Voice A]
I remember the rain.

[Male Voice B]
Keep that part.

[Both - softly]
And leave one light on.
