Edge Of The Balcony

pop, Sparse, close-miked piano ballad in a slow 4/4; male vocals start almost whisper-quiet, sitting right on the keys. Verse 1 is intimate and dry, just vocal and piano, with subtle room reverb. Chorus widens gently with soft pad swells and a warm, distant sub-bass, plus a single harmony line on the hook. Second verse brings in faint rhythmic pulses and reversed piano textures for tension. Bridge strips back to almost solo vocal for a raw moment, then final chorus blooms with layered harmonies and a slightly higher register, ending on a lingering unresolved chord that fades into silence., sad
