Tick-tock tick-tock (uh)
Yeah… we don’t stop

Late night I’m still online
clock says no but I cross the line
Lost count drinks laughs replies
I’m just chasing digital highs

Oh seconds fade like smoke in light
but I don’t care if it’s wrong or right

We’re wasting time (yeah-yeah)
but it feels so fine (uh-huh)
No past no sign
just bodies in rhyme
We’re wasting time (oh-oh)
on a borrowed line
if this is crime
then lock me inside

Time time time
can’t rewind rewind rewind
Time time time
we don’t mind mind mind

Golden hour on replay
memories in 4K
You said “forever” cliché
but I still press “stay”

Every beat steals one more minute
don’t stop I’m living in it

We’re wasting time (yeah-yeah)
but it feels so fine (uh-huh)
No past no sign
just bodies in rhyme
We’re wasting time (oh-oh)
on a borrowed line
if this is crime
then lock me inside

Tick-tock tick-tock
can’t stop this clock
Na-na we’re divine
just wasting time

Prompt

I kept saying soon
Like soon was guaranteed
Tonight I changed the word

There’s a ticket on the counter
Bought six months ago
A number that I never called
A place I meant to go

I kept saving all the good things
For a better point in time
Like somebody was keeping score
Of when I crossed the line

Then something hit me
Nothing makes the first move
So I stopped waiting
For permission I never needed

Now means now
Not someday not somehow
If I want it
I’m going there

Now means now
No saving it for later
I’ve spent enough of my life
Almost getting there

Now means now
Now means now

Now
Means
Now

No more almost
No more almost

Now
Means
Now

Called the number from the paper
Bought another ticket out
Said yes before I had the chance
To think myself back down

Left the dishes in the kitchen
Left the calendar unread
Funny how the things I feared
Got smaller when I went

I kept believing
The timing had to choose me
Now I know better
I’m the one who moves me

Now means now
Not someday not somehow
If I want it
I’m going there

Now means now
No saving it for later
I’ve spent enough of my life
Almost getting there

Now means now
Now means now

All those maybes
All those soon’s
All those perfect afternoons

I kept them waiting
On a shelf

Turns out
I was waiting for myself

Now means now
Not someday not somehow
If I want it
I’m going there

Now means now
No saving it for later
I’ve spent enough of my life
Almost getting there

Now means now
Now means now

Now
Means
Now

No more almost
No more almost

Now
Means
Now

I kept saying soon

Lyrics

Step aside I’m walking in
Glitter on my skin let the night begin

I built my fire from the ground
Every beat I own it shakes the crowd
No one’s gonna dim my shine
I write the rules the stage is mine

Raise your glass feel the heat
Every heartbeat moves your feet
Can you taste the victory?
It’s the sound of living free

I’m unstoppable unforgettable
Turn the lights up I’m electrical
Every move is loud unbreakable
This is my crown undeniable

(Oh oh oh… dance it dance it)
(Oh oh oh… can’t resist it)

I see reflections in the floor
Every step’s an open door
Breaking chains with every song
You can’t silence what is strong

Raise your glass feel the heat
Every heartbeat moves your feet
Can you taste the victory?
It’s the sound of living free

I’m unstoppable unforgettable
Turn the lights up I’m electrical
Every move is loud unbreakable
This is my crown undeniable

Clap your hands we won’t stop
Feel the rhythm watch it drop
Power surging through my veins
This empire knows my name

I’m unstoppable unforgettable
Turn the lights up I’m electrical
Every move is loud unbreakable
This is my crown undeniable

Let the night remember me
Queen of fire wild and free
Every echo every sound
This is where my heart is crowned

In the embrace of the music we're swept away
Every beat a promise of a brighter day
With every move we write our own story
In this dance we find our glory

You left without a sound
But your shadow stayed
On the walls in the air
Every word we never said

I follow the hollow traces
Through empty rooms and faded places
Can’t touch you now
But I feel you somehow

I sleep on just one side
Still making room for you
Your shirt in the drawer
Still smells like truth

I follow the hollow traces
Through empty rooms and faded places
Can’t touch you now
But I feel you somehow

You were here
You’re still here

Your laugh carves through the haze
Like sunlight in a frozen frame
I walked the road of fire and blades
Traced the letters of your name

Through storms that raged and skies that bled
Every fight every word unsaid

I carry your love like a shield I wear (a fortress unbroken)
Through the fight through despair you're always there (my constant flame)
No chain can bind no storm can tear (unyielding undying)
You're the reason I breathe this air

A fleeting glance the spark remains
In the shadows your light sustains

You held me close when the dark would call
Fingers traced where my fears would crawl
Every stumble was a climb to fall
Every smile was the reason for it all
(the reason for it all)

We bent but never broke in two
Each wound healed stronger thanks to you

I carry your love like a shield I wear (a fortress unbroken)
Through the fight through despair you're always there (my constant flame)
No chain can bind no storm can tear (unyielding undying)
You're the reason I breathe this air

Through the ashes through the fire
You’re the spark my sole desire

The fight may end the road may turn
But for your love my heart will burn

I used to leave the light on by the door
Kept your coffee warm like I had before
But you were always somewhere else in your mind

Left me talking to a ghost wasting my time
Folded all your lies like they were clean clothes

Put 'em in a drawer that's how this thing goes
I cried in the shower so you wouldn't hear
Now I don't even need to — baby I'm clear

I gave you rivers you gave me drought
Spent so long wondering what love's about
But the woman in the mirror finally spoke
Said "baby you're the fire — he was just smoke"

I'm not broken I'm just done
(yeah yeah)
I was the moon you were blocking my sun
(mmh)

You thought leaving me would make me fall apart
(uh uh)
Boy you left — but you didn't take my heart
No you didn't take my heart

(ohhh)

I see you now when you walk through the room
Different energy like you shed the gloom
I won't pretend that I don't feel the weight
Of every choice I made a little too late
(background whisper: "too late… too late…")
You were patient like a Sunday in June
I was reckless chased a different tune
And now I'm standing here on the outside damn
Watching you become everything you planned

She gave me rivers I gave her drought
Now I'm the one standing here in doubt
And the man in the mirror finally broke
Said "she was the fire — you were just smoke"

I'm not broken I'm just done
(let it go let it go)
I was the moon you were blocking my sun
(mmh yeah)
You thought leaving me would make me fall apart
(never that)
Boy you left — but you didn't take my heart
You didn't take my heart
(no no no…)

There were nights I almost called
(almost…)
Fingers on your name then I'd stall
(stall…)
But every time I stopped myself I grew
(grew…)

Into someone I love more than I loved you
(bass begins to swell)
More than I loved you
(mmh)
More — than — I — loved — you

(yeah)

I'm not broken I'm just new
(just new just new)
Everything I lost was just a clue
(clue ohhh)
You thought leaving me would dim my light
(can't dim this)
Boy you left —
(he left)
And baby I ignite
(I ignite I ignite)
I ig-nite
(ohhhh)
Mmmmh…
(still standing…)
Still standing

Ouais
Hmm
Parle moins

Tu parles trop tu dis rien
Toujours sûr jamais clair
Tu me regardes de loin
Comme si j’étais à refaire

Tu dis “viens” tu dis “reste”
Mais tu sais pas pourquoi
Moi je lis dans les gestes
Pas dans ce que tu crois

J’ai pas besoin d’expliquer
Je me vois très bien sans toi
Si tu viens pour improviser
Autant rester là-bas

Parle moins regarde mieux
J’ai déjà compris le décor
Parle moins regarde mieux
J’attends pas que tu sois fort
Parle moins regarde mieux
Je perds pas mon équilibre
Parle moins regarde mieux
Je suis calme je suis libre

Tu veux suivre mon tempo
Mais tu marches à côté
Chez moi tout est simple
Faut savoir rester vrai

T’as appris à parler vite
À promettre sans voir
Mais moi je coupe le son
Quand ça sonne trop noir

Yeah
J’arrive clean sans détour
J’fais pas l’acteur dans le jour
Trop de bruit pour peu d’idées
Moi j’avance pas besoin d’jouer
Elle sait lire entre les lignes
Moi j’dis moins j’fais plus
Si tu veux rester dans le film
Faut être réel pas flou

Parle moins regarde mieux
J’ai déjà compris le décor
Parle moins regarde mieux
J’attends pas que tu sois fort
Parle moins regarde mieux
Je perds pas mon équilibre
Parle moins regarde mieux
Je suis calme je suis libre

Ouais
Parle moins
C’est mieux comme ça

At seven the glass doors learn the street by name
sale tags turn slowly in the conditioned air
someone leaves a blue scarf folded out of place
and the mirror keeps pretending not to stare

A clerk counts coins like small weather
one by one into a paper tray
the fitting rooms exhale together
as the weekday loosens its display

Keep the low lamps on
let the room breathe out
there is music in the ordinary
when the hurry thins around
Soft returns quiet shelves
hands on fabric nothing else
after seven after seven
we move lightly through ourselves

Perfume cards sleep beside the counter
shoes line up like they know the floor
outside taxis change their colors
inside no one needs to want more

A coat on a hanger turns human
for a second in the corner light
I almost ask it where it's going
then I let it keep the night

Keep the low lamps on
let the room breathe out
there is music in the ordinary
when the hurry thins around
Soft returns quiet shelves
hands on fabric nothing else
after seven after seven
we move lightly through ourselves

Not every song should chase the ceiling
not every room should ask for rain
some evenings only need a rhythm
folded neatly with a name

Keep the low lamps on
let the room breathe out
there is music in the ordinary
when the hurry thins around
Soft returns quiet shelves
hands on fabric nothing else
after seven after seven
we move lightly through ourselves

The last receipt curls by the drawer
one small moon on the floor
after seven after seven
nothing asks to be more

Cut the feed
Leave the meter running
Hold that grin
I came with my own timing

You tried to sell me a cleaner name
With the corners sanded down
Put my laugh in a little glass case
Said “Look who’s stable now”

I don’t fit in your easy chart
I don’t land on command
There’s a tune in my crooked part
You don’t understand

Don’t fix the bend
Don’t mute the spark
I keep my rhythm
Off the mark

No default setting
I tune my own voltage
No default setting
I move when the bass gets bold

You want me simple
You want me folded
I’m not the version
That does what it’s told

No default setting
No clean reset
I’m better when I don’t behave yet

Your golden rule came overdressed
And talked like a magazine
I poured black coffee on the test
Made the paper sing

You said “Be calm be useful now”
I said “Nice little cage”
Then I took my pulse off your clock
And rewrote the page

Don’t trim the heat
Don’t square the sound
I keep my rhythm
Upside down

No default setting
I tune my own voltage
No default setting
I move when the bass gets bold

You want me simple
You want me folded
I’m not the version
That does what it’s told

No default setting
No clean reset
I’m better when I don’t behave yet

Left right
Too bright
Low kick
Uptight

Turn snap
Come back
One more
Off-track

I was never built for your manual
Never born for a numbered lane
Every time you label the motion
Something loose begins to play

Let the clean ones keep their answers
Let the smooth ones win the floor
I have trouble in my timing
And it always asks for more

No default setting
I tune my own voltage
No default setting
I move when the bass gets bold

You want me simple
You want me folded
I’m not the version
That does what it’s told

No default setting
No clean reset
I’m better when I don’t behave yet

Cut the feed
Leave it running
No default
I’m still coming
