You broke my heart, Like a piece of crystal— Sharp, fragile, gone too easy. You were my love hope, You were my lost hope. [Verse 2, Female voice, Clear voice, 80 BPM, Fuzz guitar, Organ, Cello] I’m lost in a vortex, Watching my life pass in rewind— Scrolling through videos, Filling the cracks in my mind. Anything to drown out the silence, Anything to forget your face… [Guitar Solo, Melodic and bluesy, Fast arpeggios, Bends, Wah pedal, Organ counter-melodies, Controlled chaos, Dramatic climax, 124 BPM] You were my love hope, You were my lost hope. [Pre-Chorus, Female voice, Clear voice, 90 BPM, Deep bass, Organ swell] I’ve lost the context, Trolling the past with no sense, Trafficking memories I can’t defend. [Chorus, Female voice, Clear voice, 112 BPM, Echoes, Male backing distant, Big drums, Heavy guitars, Organ] I have to stop thinking about you, But I can’t, every time I almost forget you, You come back like a ghost in my head. [Chorus Continued, Female voice, Clear voice, 114 BPM, Echoes, Male backing distant, Heavy guitars, Organ] Yeah, I know you're dangerous, I’m not okay even when you're near— ‘Cause deep down, you don’t love me, But I still wish you were here… [Bridge, Whispered, then screamed, 88 BPM, Deep bass, Organ drone, Cello] "It’s midnight— Fireworks burst like my chest, But I’m still stuck in last year’s wreck… Are you happy now? Are you happy now?!" [Organ Solo, Bluesy theme, Classical harmonies, Rapid runs, Swirling powerful tone, Driving bass and drums, 118 BPM] You were my love hope, You were my lost hope. [Outro, Female voice, Clear voice, 70 BPM, Fuzz guitar, Organ, Cello] New Year’s Eve at the beach… Your voice was the tide pulling me under. I let you in like a fool, [Outro, Heavy driving riff, Distorted guitar and Hammond organ trade licks, Growling bass, Tight drums, 64 BPM] Now I’m just another shipwreck, Another shipwreck… [Fade out -End.]
