Missing by Static Theory feat. Callum Reyes

[Intro — soft piano notes, low synth pad, distant turntable crackle, slow drum hits; whispered melodic vocals] I'm missing something I don't know what it is But I feel it in the quiet In the spaces where you lived [Verse 1 — gentle clean guitar, slow live drums, warm synth bass, subtle turntable scratches; tender melodic vocals] I walk the streets I used to know But everything feels different now The places that we used to go Are empty and I don't know how To fill the space you left behind A hole that I can't seem to find The edges of my life without you I'm learning how to live around The silence where your laughter was The echo of a distant song I keep on moving but I'm lost I'm missing you and it's too strong [Pre-Chorus — guitar swells, drums grow heavier, synth rises, turntable filter sweep; yearning melodic vocals] Maybe I'll find you in the morning Maybe I'll find you in the rain Maybe I'll find you in the memories That I keep playing again and again [Chorus — heavy melodic guitars, crashing live drums, swirling synth layers, anthemic turntable textures; soaring emotional vocals] I'm missing you like sunlight missing from the sky I'm missing you like a bird that cannot fly I'm missing you in everything I do I'm missing you but I'll make it through I'm missing you, the world feels out of tune I'm missing you beneath the lonely moon I'm missing you but I won't fall apart I'll carry you forever in my heart [Verse 2 — syncopated palm-muted guitar, heavy half-time drums, dark synth arpeggio, turntable stutters; emotionally raw melodic vocals] I found a photograph today It made me smile, it made me ache The way we laughed without a care I didn't know that you would break And leave me standing in the cold With only stories left to hold I'm trying to be strong for those Who need me to be brave But late at night I'm just a kid Who's missing what I couldn't save I know you're somewhere far away But I'll be here, I'll be okay [Pre-Chorus — rising distorted guitars, stronger drums, swelling synth, turntable rewind; desperate melodic vocals] Maybe I'll find you in the morning Maybe I'll find you in the rain Maybe I'll find you in the memories That I keep playing again and again [Chorus — crushing distorted guitars, crashing live drums, thick synth layers, rapid turntable scratches; powerful anthemic vocals] I'm missing you like sunlight missing from the sky I'm missing you like a bird that cannot fly I'm missing you in everything I do I'm missing you but I'll make it through I'm missing you, the world feels out of tune I'm missing you beneath the lonely moon I'm missing you but I won't fall apart I'll carry you forever in my heart [Guitar Solo — soaring melodic guitar solo with emotional bends, hopeful melodic runs, uplifting harmonics and sustained warmth; heavy plodding live drums, deep synth bass and soft turntable scratches] [Bridge — clean guitar arpeggios, sparse drums gradually building, distant synth atmosphere, turntable vinyl crackle; soft melodic vocals growing stronger] I don't know if time will heal Or if I'll always feel this way But I know that I can stand And I'll make it through the day I'll remember all the good And I'll let the sadness fade I'll keep moving forward With the memories you made [Breakdown — low guitar chugs, pounding half-time live drums, distorted synth bass, sharp turntable cuts; intense shouted singing] I'M NOT ALONE! I'M NOT LOST! I'M JUST MISSING WHAT I LOVED THE MOST! I'LL BE STRONG! I'LL BE BRAVE! I'LL CARRY YOU BEYOND THE GRAVE! [Final Chorus — massive distorted guitars, huge live drums, soaring synth, frantic turntable scratches; fierce hopeful vocals] I'm missing you but I'm learning how to live I'm missing you and I've got so much to give I'm missing you but I'm standing in the light I'm missing you and I'll make it through the night I'm missing you, the stars are still above I'm missing you and I'm sending you my love I'm missing you but I'm not giving in I'm missing you and I'll see you again [Outro — fading clean guitar harmonics, soft synth pulse, restrained live drums, turntable scratches slowing to silence; whispered melodic vocals] I'm missing you But I'm okay I'm missing you I'll find my way I'm missing you Until we meet again I'm missing you My forever friend
