Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [solo violin Slow and uneasy] [breath Faint wind] [Verse 1] Hands in my pockets Key ring shakes Breath makes little ghosts In the gravel wake Streetlamp behind me Ahead Just trees Every broken twig Crawls under my skin [ghostly female humming Far away] [Chorus] Something in the tree line Watching while I walk Every crunch of leaves Sounds like claws on rock Shadows on the sidewalk Stretch and twist and talk Something in the tree line Knows I’m all alone [Verse 2] Phone at one percent Screen glow fades Footsteps out of rhythm Wait—did I just wait? Bushes hold their breathing Night holds mine Name on my tongue Won’t cross the line [ghostly female vocal High and thin] (Do you hear it?) (Do you feel it?) [Chorus] Something in the tree line Watching while I walk Every crunch of leaves Sounds like claws on rock Shadows on the sidewalk Stretch and twist and talk Something in the tree line Knows I’m all alone [Bridge] [violin swells Low rumble] Branch snaps Too close Cold hand On my throat Male voice trembling Female voice near My name in a whisper That no one should hear [Chorus] Something in the tree line Steps in from the dark Every sound I feared Gathers in my heart I don’t dare look over I just keep walking on Something in the tree line Follows me home

Cinematic horror ballad with a tense, close-miked solo violin intro that slowly adds dissonant strings and low drones. Male vocals start calm and close to the ear, almost whispered; ghostly female vocals float in high and distant, treated with reverb and slight shimmer. Sparse heartbeat kick and sub pulses enter for the second half, with swells of strings and layered vocal harmonies to build dread, then cut to near silence on the final line., violin, vocal, deep
