Nothing Left To Hold

[LYRICS LOCKED] [GLOBAL RHYTHM ENGINE: 72 BPM | DRAGGING HALF-TIME][808 ENGINE: ANALOG PITCH-DRIFT | SATURATION BLOOM][VOCAL ENGINE: BREATHY FEMALE | HAUNTED CONTRALTO] [HUMANIZATION: MASTER TAPE WOW AND FLUTTER] [Intro] [low whispered mutter] [vinyl hiss] [sparse detuned guitar loop] (Audible breath) We didn’t break. We just stopped trying to stay whole. We just fucking drifted apart. [Verse 1] [VOCAL: TELEPHONE FILTER | WHISPERY] [AHEAD-BEAT STACCATO] We still talk like we’re okay. Staring at the ceiling fan all day. Your eyes don’t light up at me anymore. You just stare off into fucking space. You say "love" like it's a habit. Like a reflex, trying to catch it. I feel the distance when you touch my skin. We're dying in the room we're living in. [Pre-Chorus] [FILTER OPENING] [RISING GAIN] [808 WALK-UP CLIMB] I don’t miss you when you’re gone. I miss you when you’re right here. That’s when the silence is too loud. That’s when the ending is clear. [Chorus] [VOCAL: FULL RANGE | ETHEREAL DOUBLES] [808 ENGINE: MAXIMUM BLOOM] We’re falling out of love real slow. No explosion, no final blow. Just fading colors and quiet nights. Less "forever," more goodbyes We’re falling out of love, I know. By the way your heartbeat feels so cold. I still hold you, but my grip is stiff. Like there’s nothing left to miss [Verse 2] [VOCAL: TELEPHONE FILTER | WHISPERY] [ON-BEAT STACCATO] [HI-HAT SKITTERS ENTER] Your laughter sounds unfamiliar Like it belongs to someone else You don’t ask how my day went I don’t blame you, I didn’t help We move through days on autopilot Playing house, playing our roles Two ghosts sharing a shadow Trying not to admit what we both know I stopped dreaming with you in it You stopped asking me to stay We keep pretending this is normal Just to make it through another day [Bridge] [TOTAL VACUUM] [STRIPPED WHISPER] [SINGLE LOW 808 DRONE] [DRY - NO EFFECTS] Maybe love ain’t meant to last. Maybe it’s just meant to pass. Watch the colors drain away. Nothing left for us to say. We didn’t fail, we just outgrew, the version of us we once knew No villains here, no one to blame Just two hearts not feeling the same [Final Chorus] [VOCAL: FULL RANGE | ETHEREAL DOUBLES] [MAXIMUM DENSITY] Falling out of love tonight! Still holding hands, still not alright! Say I love you out of reflex now! But we don't believe it, drag it out! Falling out of love for real! Nothing left to hurt or heal! I don’t cry, I don’t feel I just let go of what was love. [Outro] [FLOAT] [BEHIND-BEAT] [SMALL DRY VOCAL TAIL] [FADING INTO STATIC] We didn’t break. We just let go. [Tape stop] [Absolute silence]
