[Intro: Driving minor-key synth arpeggio, atmospheric pads, sparse percussion, building tension]
[Breathy, reflective, half sung]
Lost in nights I couldn’t hold…
Every weight pressing down…
[Verse 1]
Chasing time I couldn’t hold
Every night, the world felt cold
Sleep was gone, my mind on fire
Everything fell from the wire
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I can feel it burning in my veins
A fire rising through the pain
I’m not done, I’ll rise again (ohhh…)
[Chorus 1]
I took too much, it all fell down
Burned the nights, I hit the ground
Lost in stress, I lost the race
Now I’m standing, find my place
I stumbled hard, I’ve felt the cost
But I’m not gone… not lost… (ooooh…)
[Verse 2]
Looking back at the mess I made
Too many nights, too much to trade
Burned too bright, I ran too fast
Lost the moments that couldn’t last
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I can feel it burning in my veins
A fire rising through the pain
I’m not done, I’ll rise again (ohhh…)
[Chorus 2]
Too many days, too many nights
Lost in blur, lost in the fight
Fell apart under all the strain
Rising up through all the pain
I made mistakes, I’ve felt the cost
But I’m still here… not lost… (ooooh…)
[Bridge]
I won’t stay down in the wreckage
I’ll rebuild through all the strain
Won’t let the weight control my days
Find my light, break through the pain
[Final Chorus – Soaring]
I carried the world on tired shoulders
Pulled too far, the nights grew colder
Every step I took went astray
But I’m alive, I’ll find my way
The weight of it tried to define me
I’ve lost some ground, but it won’t confine me (ooooh…)
[Outro: Pulsing synth fades, single held chord, airy backing vocals:
“I’m not lost… I’m not lost… ooooh… I’m not lost…”]
