Residue of you

(Instrumental: A soft, warm synth pad slowly fades in with a long, dreamy release. A single, clean-toned electric guitar plucks a sparse, melancholic chord, drenched in slow reverb. A deep 808 bass glides in softly under a quiet lofi-kick and a crisp rim-tap.)

(Vocals: Breath-heavy, airy ad-libs layered in deep plate reverb)

(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh...)

(Yeah, yeah...)

(Instrumental: The rhythm stays minimalist. The 808 hits with a soft attack, leaving a wide, empty space between the rim-taps. The guitar plucks quietly, like an echo.)

(Vocals: Close, intimate projection, utilizing a slight vocal fry to convey weariness and exhaustion)

So now you want closure... after all this time.

Funny how you're just gettin' around to what you left behind.

You left with no warning, put the blame all on me,

Now you’re standing in my doorway, begging for a guarantee.

You talk about the past like it's a coat you can just shed,

But this residue of you is printed deep inside my head.

(Instrumental: The synth pad swells, becoming warmer and fuller. The open hi-hats begin to swell in and out of the mix, adding a subtle high-frequency texture. The 808 bass glides a bit more prominently.)

(Vocals: Double-tracked for a hazy, atmospheric feel. Fluid, emotional melismatic runs on the sustained words)

You say you're a changed man, say you want to make mends,

But you're still hiding the truth, just looking for defense.

I can forgive the damage, but I can't forget the lies,

Left me with a huge void underneath these heavy skies.

Now you look for karma, want me to wish you well,

But being there when you need me is its own kind of hell.

Closure ain't enough... no, closure ain't enough.

(Instrumental: The hi-hats drop out, returning to the sparse, spacious lofi-kick and rim-tap. A solitary guitar pluck echoes through the reverb space.)

(Vocals: Single vocal track, conversational but deeply melodic, shifting to a lower, somber register)

Years allowed to pass by, the damage has been done,

Remembering the awful things you said before you run.

You chose another woman, threw our world into the dust,

Now you ask for healing when there's nothing left to trust.

You expect me to be there, to catch you when you fall,

While I'm living with the constant pain, staring at the wall.

Why do you want closure? Is it just to clear your mind?

'Cause it leaves me in the suffering you proudly left behind.

(Instrumental: Full production returns. Synth pads reach their peak warmth, and the open hi-hats swell continuously against the deep, breathing 808 bass.)

(Vocals: Double-tracked with high-register, breathy vocal layers floating in the background space)

You say you're a changed man, say you want to make mends,

But you're still hiding the truth, just looking for defense.

I can forgive the damage, but I can't forget the lies,

Left me with a huge void underneath these heavy skies.

Now you look for karma, want me to wish you well,

But being there when you need me i
