[Intro: 150 BPM, vinyl crackle and tape hiss haze open into a lone detuned piano motif, sub-bass pulse builds, reverse-breath riser swells, binaural widening, male voice enters close-mic and broken] I didn’t even hear it from you I guess it’s partly what hurt the most The feeling as you stab my heart Two pieces that should never fall apart [Pre-Chorus: pre-chorus tightens, reversed-breath swell, female voice answers in ghostly near-whisper, synth pad bed thickens, sidechain pumping starts, telephone-filtered ad-libs] I just assumed, that we were whole The smiles were fake, and I didn’t know I guess you didn’t care, you knew I loved you so [Chorus: full euphoric detonation, stacked male/female vocals, distorted 808 hits, sharp transients, drill hi-hats rolling, huge reverb blooms, audio panning sweeps wide, Dolby Atmos spatial burst] You were so unfaithful Go and carry all the guilt Do you even feel it The pain that you’ve built You left a scar, on my heart, that just won’t heal [vocal pans hard left to right on 'let the skies pour rain', delay throws trailing] You can carry, the pain, let the skies pour rain Let the skies pour rain, On you, on you, Let the skies pour rain On you, on you, on you [Instrumental Break: 4 bars, synth lead and piano trade the chorus motif in harmony, 808 bass sidechains under riser, bitcrush flickers, auto-pan sweeps the stereo field] [Verse 2: male baritone raps ultra-fast and precise, fragmented cause-and-effect lines, percussive coin and switch clicks punctuate, lo-fi filter heavy, radio filter muffles ad-libs] I hope you can never get up Do you know long it took for me To gain the courage to leave my head And enter a world that seemed so dead [Pre-Chorus: duet trades the confession, piano answers each phrase, reverse reverb swell, filter sweep rises into the drop] I just assumed, that we were whole The smiles were fake, and I didn’t know I guess you didn’t care, you knew I loved you so [Chorus: second detonation, stacked harmonies thicker, object-based rendering spins vocals around the listener, sidechain pump locks the groove, bitcrush grit on the hook] You were so unfaithful Go and carry all the guilt Do you even feel it The pain that you’ve built You left a scar, on my heart, that just won’t heal [beat drops to just sub and heartbeat percussion for one bar before 'let the skies pour rain' returns] You can carry, the pain, let the skies pour rain Let the skies pour rain, On you, on you, Let the skies pour rain On you, on you, on you [Instrumental Break: 8 bars, piano and synth lead duet melody rises over buzzing sub-bass, risers build, huge reverb opens into ambisonic wideness, anticipation for the bridge] [Bridge: stripped to exposed piano and sub-bass, intimate spoken-sung female lead joins male in close duet, tape saturation warms the vocal, auto-pan drifts gently, binaural intimacy] Oh! I was so happy, I was in love I was over the moon, I was in love And then you changed it all [reverse reverb washes under 'you changed it all' before the fall] You let us crash and fall You changed it all [Chorus: final mega chorus, double-length, both voices detonate together, huge stacked harmonies, 3D spatial imaging, object-based rendering, Dolby surround engulfs, bitcrush and tape saturation peak, celebratory maximum energy] You were so unfaithful Go and carry all the guilt Do you even feel it The pain that you’ve built [brief vinyl-crackle hush before second half re-ignites, filter sweep rises] You were so unfaithful Go and carry all the guilt Do you even feel it The pain that you’ve built [audio panning sweeps the stacked vocals wide as the scar line lands] You left a scar, on my heart, that just won’t heal You can carry, the pain, let the skies pour rain Let the skies pour rain, [delay throws echo 'on you' into the reverb tail] On you, on you, Let the skies pour rain On you, on you, on you [Outro: 150 BPM pulse fades, piano and synth lead trade final phrases in harmony, vinyl crackle and tape hiss swell, reverb tail stretches into infinite ambisonic space, vocals whisper 'on you' into silence] [End]
