Divine Design Blues

[Verse 1]
She counted every kindness
Like chips on a green felt table
Eyes on the door
Then the window
Then the exit sign over the cable
You called it love
She called it timing
You called it ours
She called it phase
You held on hard to the history
She held a mirror to the haze
[Chorus]
A woman will leave
When there's nothing left to gain
That's the anxious order of exchange
It's not betrayal
It's a revelation
When you lose
She vanish
(divine design, baby)
When you lose
She vanish
(divine design)
[Verse 2]
She danced in your kitchen barefoot
Hips on the edge of goodbye
Salt on the rim of the moment
Sugar in the sound of her sigh
You thought you could buy more future
With hours
With flowers
With pain
But every gift had a barcode
Every hug had a hidden rate
[Chorus]
A woman will leave
When there's nothing left to gain
That's the anxious order of exchange
It's not betrayal
It's a revelation
When you lose
She vanish
(divine design, honey)
When you lose
She vanish
(divine design)
[Bridge]
Is it cruel
Or is it sacred
How the balance keeps the score
Every blessing
Every forfeit
All the coming
All the go
Spin me round this broken disco
Make the pattern look like chance
But the floor keeps pulling lovers
Into loss
Into trance
[Chorus]
A woman will leave
When there's nothing left to gain
That's the anxious order of exchange
It's not betrayal
It's a revelation
When you lose
She vanish
(divine design, baby)
When you lose
She vanish
(divine design)

Blues-trance-disco fusion: dusty electric piano and woozy synth pads over a four-on-the-floor kick and warm sub bass, with chopped female backing vocals answering the lead. Verses stay smoky and intimate; chorus blooms into bright, hypnotic disco strings and rhythm guitar. Subtle filter sweeps and delay throws keep a late-night, spiritual-club atmosphere. Male vocals, cool and detached with flashes of raw grit., blues, trance, disco
