[Intro]
\n[Instrumental Intro: Twang Guitar, Whistling Synth, Organ Swells, Heavy Bass, Slow Marching Drums]
\n[Minimal Beat, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
\nStep outside…<\/p>\n
The clock keeps ticking…<\/p>\n
Physics…<\/p>\n
…is driving our ride.<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nShowdown
\nAt high noon
\n(It’ll end this debate)<\/p>\n
No slowdown
\nComing soon
\n(That’s a minute late)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nThe evidence is plain to all
\nRight there written on the wall
\nHeat keeps building, oceans rise
\nNo disguise before our eyes<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nTick… tock…
\n(The clock goes on)
\nDay by day…
\n(Until it’s gone)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nHigh noon
\n(The shadows fall)
\nTime arrives
\n(For one and all)<\/p>\n
No retreat
\n(No delay)
\nTomorrow forms
\n(From today)<\/p>\n
Showdown
\nAt high noon
\n(It’ll end this debate)<\/p>\n
[Instrumental]
\n[Guitar Solo]
\n[Driving Bass, Organ Stabs, Galloping Drums, Cinematic Synth]<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nThe numbers in the atmosphere
\nRecording changes crystal clear
\nQuestions matter, facts do too
\nReality comes shining through<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nOne more year
\n(Moves the line)
\nOne more choice
\n(Changes time)<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\nNo revolvers
\n(No disguise)
\nOnly data
\n(Before our eyes)<\/p>\n
No opponents
\n(To defeat)
\nOnly futures
\n(We may meet)<\/p>\n
[Breakdown]
\n[Minimal Beat, Deep Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
\n… when delay…<\/p>\n
costs more…<\/p>\n
than action…<\/p>\n
(That’s not a solution!)<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus]
\nShowdown
\nAt high noon
\n(It’ll end this debate)<\/p>\n
No slowdown
\nComing soon
\n(That’s a minute late)<\/p>\n
High noon
\n(The choice is clear)<\/p>\n
The time…<\/p>\n
Is already…<\/p>\n
Here.<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\n[Instrumental Outro: Echo Guitar, Organ Fade, Slow Drum Cadence, Wind Effects]
\nThe sun is high…<\/p>\n
The choice remains…<\/p>\n
High noon…<\/p>\n
(Coming to your town… soon.)<\/p>\n
