Escantescent

[Verse 1]
You said a word
Escantescent
Rolled it slow
Let it press on my neck
Kitchen light hums
Mismatched mugs in a stack
Your socks don’t match
But your gaze cuts exact
[Chorus]
Escantescent
How you burn in the in‑between
Halfway glow
Halfway dream
I can taste your name on my teeth
Escantescent
Every shade that I can’t keep
Fading gold on the bedsheet
You’re the color I never can leave
[Verse 2]
Late train
Last call
Ticket stub in your palm
Phone screen cracked
Still you laugh like it’s calm
You draw constellations
In the fog on the glass
Circle our initials
Then erase them too fast
[Chorus]

Shimmering alt-pop with a hazy, nostalgic glow; tight programmed drums, soft analog synth pads, and a rubbery bass line. Verses stay close and intimate with doubled male vocals; chorus widens into airy harmonies and a bright, side-chained synth lead. Light reverb on snare and claps; keep the hook upfront and sticky.
