Barefoot at the Edge

[Intro – analog synth pad, sparse kick, no melody] [Verse 1 – Female Vocal, intimate, close-mic delivery] I am the secret you will sing A barefoot trace through morning dew I came to speak of lifetimes here Of everything that lives in you [Pre-Chorus – Crescendo, synth arpeggios rising] I am needed by the yesterday And needed by the coming day When I soothe you through the heartbeat I will never fade away [Chorus – Harmonies, Background vocals, expansive reverb wall] And I and I move through the world Which is you, which is YOU From the very first beginning To the end of the line I and I move through the world Which is you, which is YOU From the bloom until the fading To the END OF THE LINE [Verse 2 – Female Vocal, darker tone, synth layers thickening] I am the comfort in the deep The voice that hides inside the blue I am the shadow that remembers The secret always born in you [Pre-Chorus – Crescendo] I am needed by the yesterday And needed by the coming day When I soothe you through the heartbeat I will never fade away [Chorus – Harmonies, Background vocals, full production] And I and I move through the world Which is you, which is YOU From the very first beginning To the end of the line I and I move through the world Which is you, which is YOU From the bloom until the fading To the END OF THE LINE [Bridge – Spoken word, hypnotic, minimal pulse] I and I You and you From the bloom To the end of the line [Outro – Female Vocal, swelling pad, dissolving into reverb] I am the secre-e-et You will si-i-ing From the bloom To the li-i-ine [Instrumental Fade Out]
