⸻

(Intro – Distant Memory)

((Soft ambient pad))
((Lo-fi piano))
((Faint vinyl crackle))

(Soft female) (distant):
I still feel you in the quiet…

(Male) (whisper):
Like you never really left…

⸻

(Verse 1 – Dayseeker Style)

((Clean reverb guitar))
((Minimal kick pulse))

I keep your voice inside my head
Like a ghost that never rests
Every night I close my eyes
You’re the shadow in my chest

I tried to bury what I feel
But it always finds its way
Through the silence, through the dark
Through every word I couldn’t say

⸻

(Pre-Chorus – Rising Emotion)

((Pads swell))

If I let go… would you fade away…
Or stay with me in the black…

⸻

(Chorus – Emotional Peak)

((Full band enters))
((Wide guitars + ambient layers))

You’re the creature in the black
Every time I look back

Every memory still bleeds
Through the silence inside me

I can’t sleep without your ghost
I feel you when I’m alone

Even in the deepest dark
You still have my heart

⸻

(Verse 2 – Kardashev Atmosphere)

((Ambient textures))
((Delayed guitar swells))

Floating through a fractured sky
Where your voice still echoes mine
Every star feels like your eyes
Watching me from the other side

((Light harsh layer underneath))

I am breaking in the space between
What I was and what I’ve seen

⸻

(Breakdown – Emotional Collapse)

((Heavy drop))
((Low tuned chugs))
((Slow crushing drums))

WHY
CAN’T
I
LET
YOU
GO

((Pause hits))

YOU’RE STILL
INSIDE
MY SOUL

⸻

(Bridge – Snow “Sleep” Influence)

((Drums cut))
((Soft piano + ambient textures))
((Heavy reverb))

(Female) (dreamlike):
Close your eyes…
Drift away…

(Male) (soft, broken):
If I sleep… will I see your face…

⸻

(Blackgaze Transition – Dissolution)

((Wall of reverb guitars))
((Slow tremolo picking))
((Distant screams buried))

Everything fades into you
Every color turns to blue

⸻

(Final Chorus – Massive / Emotional)

((Full instrumentation))
((Choir + layered vocals))

You’re the creature in the black
Every time I fade to black

Every part of me still aches
Every breath I barely take

If I’m lost inside this grief
You’re the only thing I keep

Even when the light is gone
You’re the reason I hold on

⸻

(Outro – Sleep / Doom Fade)

((Tempo slows to 70 BPM))
((Piano only))
((Ambient noise))

(Male)(barely audible):
I’ll find you… in my sleep…

((Tape degradation effect))
((Soft wind + reverb decay))

(Female) (fading):
Stay…

((Silence))
