We Were Never Separate

V5.5

Faded Glory × Liminal Grace Title: We Were Never Separate [Intro] [Clean guitar through endless reverb] [Single piano note sustained] [Lead Vocal: distant, as if from another room] [Whisper harmony pad] (Mmm...) (I remember...) [Verse 1] [Lead Vocal: fragile] [Harmony enters on final line] I wore my name Like a borrowed coat Held together By words somebody spoke Every mirror Told the same old lie Until the silence... Opened up inside... [Pre-Chorus] [Lead Vocal] [Low octave underlay] [Whisper harmony] The walls dissolved... Without a sound... I never fell... The floor just wasn't there... [Chorus] [Double-tracked Lead] [High thirds] [Low octave] [Wide harmony stack] We were never separate Only dreaming we were alone Every face I'd ever known Lived somewhere inside my own When the light came pouring through There was no "me"... Only you... [Verse 2] [Lead Vocal: dreamlike] [Harmony responses] Stars kept breathing Inside the rain Every stranger Knew my name The miles between us Turned into air Every goodbye... Was already there... [Bridge] [Half-time] [Lead Vocal barely above a whisper] [Whisper harmonies left and right] [Long instrumental spaces] No beginning... No end... Just echoes... Learning how... To sing again... [Guitar Solo] [Singing lead guitar] [Slow bends] [Ambient swells] [No shredding] [Final Chorus] [Full harmony stack] [Double-tracked lead] [High fifths bloom on final phrases] We were never separate Only learning how to see Every road I thought I'd walked Was always walking me If tomorrow never comes Nothing disappears... Love is only... Changing mirrors... [Outro] [Only clean guitar and bass drone] [Lead Vocal: almost inaudible] [Whisper harmony slowly fading] I'm still here... Just quieter... [Tape hiss] [Long reverb decay] [End]
