[Instrumental Intro 4 — 90 bpm, heavy distorted guitars enter immediately, wall of sound, droning bass, delicate harp arpeggios, fingerpicked acoustic guitar, warm vintage analog room ambience, tape saturation, no drums, no vocals, spacious, uneasy, quiet edge of day]

[Verse 1 10 — 90 bpm, melodic singing, intimate, heavy guitars continue, delicate harp arpeggios, evolving violins, no drums, fragile, ethereal, Persian melismatic ornamentation]
[melodic warm contralto, intimate, sung throughout, underwater resonance, fragile, ethereal, melancholic, Persian melismatic, microtonal bends]
a bird landed on the windowsill
at the quiet edge of day.
rain was hanging from the branches,
the garden had turned grey.

it looked across the empty room
as if it knew the place,
then lifted from the silence
without a sound or trace.

[Verse 2 10 — 100 bpm, melodic singing, breathy, intimate, drums enter softly, floor tom pulse, bass swells, violas and cellos, subtle dissonance, tremolos and slow swells]
[melodic warm contralto, intimate, soaring, held notes, hooks, underwater texture, building intensity, ethereal, Persian quarter-tone ornaments, melismatic phrases]
i walked beneath the cedar trees,
the ground was cold and wet.
somewhere beyond the garden wall,
i heard it once again.

the sky was full of moving clouds,
the evening changing shape.
a single feather crossed the path
and disappeared into the haze.

[Bridge 8 — 85 bpm, melodic singing, intimate, slower, more fragile, evolving violins, cellos, subtle dissonance, restrained psychedelic textures, droning bass]
[melodic warm contralto, intimate, fragile, dark, held notes, underwater resonance, dissolving, ethereal, sung throughout, Persian microtonal bends]
i don't know what it carried,
or where it had come from.
only that the air felt different
after it was gone.

[3:00-3:03 — FALSE ENDING — 3 SECONDS OF COMPLETE SILENCE]

[Outro 8 — 70 bpm, melodic singing, dissolving, fading into silence, droning bass, delicate harp arpeggios, fingerpicked acoustic guitar, violins and cellos fading, tape saturation, warm vintage analog room ambience]
[melodic warm contralto, intimate, underwater decay, dissolving, ethereal and final, sung throughout, Persian melismatic fade]
night settled on the garden,
the branches lost their light.
and somewhere in the distance,
a bird crossed through the night.
