Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro sad monologue no instruments] In memory of Brad Arnold – 1978–2026… [Verse] A hundred days have made us older Since the last time we heard your voice on stage A thousand tears have made us colder And now the spotlight feels so empty in this rage I miss the way you'd scream the chorus The fire in your eyes when the crowd would sing along Every night we played, you gave us purpose Now the silence hits harder than any song [Chorus] Were here without you, Brad But your shadow's still around Every chord thats played, it's like you're still somehow Here without you, man The stage just ain't the same We feel you in the music, but we're calling out your name Were here without you [Final Verse] A hundred nights of empty echoes Since the cancer took you quiet in your sleep We replay all the stories that you told us The laughs, the faith, the promises we'd keep Your words still burn inside these lyrics The ones you wrote when life was breaking through We sing them loud to keep your spirit near us But damn, it's hard to face the world without you [Chorus] Were here without you, Brad But your voice is in the sound Every line we sing, it's like you're breaking ground Here without you, brother The road feels way too long We carry on your fire, but the heart's where you belong Were here without you [Bridge] The crowd still chants your name in arenas They light the phones and hold 'em high for you We play "Kryptonite" and feel you right there with us But when the final note fades, the truth cuts through You're gone, but you're not forgotten Your soul's in every riff, in every word we say We'll keep the music living, keep the fire burning Till we see you again someday [Final Chorus] We're here without you, Brad But you're never really gone Your spirit rides the melody, it carries us along Here without you But your legacy remains We'll sing it till the end, through the joy and through the pain We're here without you... But we're here because of you [Outro sad monologue no instruments] Rest in peace, Brad. Your music touched millions, and it'll keep echoing. The world feels emptier without your voice, but we're grateful for every note you gave us.
