Sorry...

[Intro — a low, vibrating synth tone slowly rising like tension. Crisp drums enter on the backbeat. Male vocal, close-mic, intimate but intense, almost a whisper with an edge] (M) Silence… it screams louder than any shout. I hear echoes where your voice should be. Between us there are kilometers, but it’s not distance — it’s a wall. And I built it myself. Brick by brick. Out of my own fears. [Verse 1 — Female vocal, clear but with a metallic coldness, as if bouncing off the hall walls. The rhythm gets denser, programmed beats punctuating every line] (F) You read between the lines where there’s not a single word, Inventing scenes where I’m just tired and worn. Every “not right now” becomes a verdict to you, While I’m just watching the city lights fade from view. Don’t look for betrayal where there’s only the shadow of rain, Don’t turn my silence into someone else’s story again. The truth is simple. And it’s right here. But you don’t hear it… you only hear yourself. [Pre‑Chorus — both voices layered, one over the other, like a clash. Synths climb the scale, building pressure] (Both) We talk through wires, through thousands of kilometers, But we don’t hear words — we hear our own demons. One question could bring this whole structure down, But we’re too afraid to ask it. Too afraid of the truth we might find. [Chorus — explosion. Male vocal pushes into a chesty, strained register, androgynous tone almost a controlled scream. Drums hit hard, massive hall reverb. Dark, wide minor‑key synth chords] (M, forcefully) Stop putting words in my mouth! Stop building shadows from silence! Trust is like glass — once shattered, it can’t be mended. Chase those ghosts out of your head! Before we lose this chance to fix what’s broken! Heal what’s tearing us apart with plain, honest words! Look me in the eyes — even through a screen, even across continents! There’s no lie there! Just me! Just me! [Verse 2 — Female vocal again, higher now, on the edge, very intimate, you can hear her breath and the room’s natural bleed. The rhythm turns syncopated, jagged] (F) I’m hiding nothing. I’m just there, and you’re here. It was a long day, the connection kept fading. And you already wrote the ending to our story, Without asking if I even wanted to read it. Sorry I didn’t say “Wait, don’t go” right away, I thought you’d hear it in my tone. Now I’m learning to speak plainly, even when it hurts, Even if this sound shatters into fragments in this empty hall. [Bridge — minimal. A single repeating arpeggio, cold and mechanical. Drums drop out, only a snappy hi‑hat remains. Vocals one by one, ultra‑close‑mic] (M) — I invented this coldness all by myself. (F) — And I just wanted you to ask. (M) — Not “Is everything okay?” but “What’s hurting?” (F) — One honest question. (Both, whispering) — And this whole house of cards will fall. [Chorus — climax. Both vocals together, male at his limit, female as a haunting echo. Stereo spread wide, delay throws scattering the last words through the hall. End with a sharp cut to silence] (Both) Stop putting words in my mouth! Stop building shadows from silence! Trust is like a flame — blow it out and you can’t relight it. Let’s banish these ghosts right now! While we can still hear each other! Heal what’s tearing us apart with plain, honest words! See me! Hear me! There’s no lie here! Just love! Only that! [Outro — one long, decaying synth chord. Male vocal at the very end, very quiet, with natural hall reverb] (M) Sorry… I didn’t ask sooner. I’m here. I’m listening. Tell me the truth. Please.
