Fragile Trace

[Instrumental Intro] [15’] [Nylon Guitar Arpeggio] [Soft Fretless Bass] [Saxophone Soprano] [Spacious Reverb] [Verse 1] [Soft Voice] [Intimate] [Nylon Guitar Only] In my cup, yesterday's peace has turned cold... The city flows on, like a story untold. In this madness of neon and bright city lights, The world chokes on rhythm of passionate nights. Behind the glass, like a ghost, I’m unseen, After the words and the space in between… [Ad-lib] [Whisper] Mmm, so cruel, the space in between… [Pre-Chorus] [Rhythmic Bass] [Subtle Jazz Drums] [Building Tension] The hands of the clock slice the moments apart... Someone is chasing a ghost in their heart. I am a witness who stands in the shade, Counting the grey days that never will fade… [Ad-lib] Mmm, lonely days… [Chorus] [Melodic] [Emotional] [Full Arrangement] [Fretless Bass Melodic] Deep in my heart is a crack, a thin line, In this big city, no home is now mine. Fragile is love, like the porcelain floor, Shards in the corner, I can't ignore… The world is in haste, never feeling the cost, I close all the doors to the joy that I lost… [Ad-lib] Mmm, closing the doors… [Verse 2] [Mellow] [Piano Accents] [Breathy Voice] Faces are flickering, frames in a show, Their hidden emotions, I already know… The crack in my heart is my own secret sign, The lights are all out, and the darkness is mine! You were a fire, so bright and so warm, But you went out... what comes after the storm? [Ad-lib] Mmm, after the storm… [Bridge] [Guitar Solo] [Sophisticated] [Jazz Chords] City, fly on... what lies ahead? I can't escape from the words that we said… In this big crowd, I’m a phantom in grey, Catching a moment that’s fading away… [Ad-lib] Mmm, a phantom in grey… [Outro] [Fade Out] [Very Soft] [Saxophone Soprano Solo] Maybe tomorrow the joy will return? Maybe the sun for the lonely will burn… We’ll step from the shadows, out of the night, To see all our dreams in a different light… Pain is a pill for the errors we made, But today our whole world is a fragile facade. Glass and a shadow... a line on the heart... You are not here... and we're falling apart... Mmm, fragile, the story of life… [Solo saxophone soprano] [15’] [End]
