(Verse 1)
Under starlit domes, the city bends to sound,
Wristband pulses blue, the ground becomes unbound.
Hands like satellites, we reach above the crowd,
Laser lines cut through the night, every face aloud.
(Pre-Chorus)
Hold your breath—
Now—
(Chorus / Drop Hook)
Lift me higher now
Lift me higher now
Lift me higher now
Lift me higher now
[8–16 bar instrumental drop — main synth lead, warm supersaw chord progression, sidechained bass. Vocal chops/ad-libs layered over bars 5–12: "Lift—lift—(chop)—me—(chop)" and airy "oh—ah" textures. Leave space for festival crowd chant on last 2 bars.]
(Verse 2)
Sunrise paints the skyline gold, our shadows stretch and climb,
Confetti drifts like tiny moons, we lose the stitch of time.
Every laugh a neon flash, your voice a thread of light,
We hold a thousand seconds here — the world feels right.
(Pre-Chorus)
Hold your breath—
Now—
(Chorus / Drop Hook)
Lift me higher now
Lift me higher now
Lift me higher now
Lift me higher now
[8–16 bar instrumental drop — introduce arpeggiated counter-lead and roomy reverb tail. Place short vocal ad-libs over the first 4 bars: "ah—" "whoa—"; during bars 6–8 bring chopped hook stabs, then hands-up break on bar 12.]
(Bridge / Breakdown)
Two silhouettes on the rooftop, dawn on the avenue,
You press a palm to my chest and the beat answers you.
Concrete becomes a shoreline where our footsteps write the sound,
We learned to fly on fractured light — no gravity found.
(Build — rising)
Hold your breath—
Now—
(quick vocal riser: "Lift—")
(Final Chorus / Anthem)
Lift me higher now (lead)
Lift me higher now (harmony)
Lift me higher now (stacked vocals)
Lift me higher now (stacked ad-libs)
[Final drop — 16 bars. Big lead synth, layered pads, bit-crushed vocal chops on "Lift me—" riding the first 8 bars; second 8 bars bring full stereo clap/ride energy and festival-suitable breakdown for crowd sing-along. Add optional spoken tag over last 4 bars: "We are infinite." ]
(Outro)
Let the last chord hang like a promise in the air,
Wristband fades to gray, but we keep the echo there.
Lift me out of darkness, carry me into the dawn,
A melody that lingers long after the night is gone.
[Production notes for vocal placement: keep verses intimate and dry; pre-chorus a touch of delay; the single-syllable "Now—" must cut clean into the drop. Chorus hook is intentionally short (4 words) to allow looping and vocal-chop treatment. Space reserved after every chorus for an 8–16 bar instrumental drop and for crowd-call layering.]
