V6

[Intro] (Atmospheric shifting synths, sparse acoustic guitar harmonics) (Fretless bass sliding quietly in the background) [Verse 1] The wind is a call that I cannot ignore Pulling me up from the dust of the floor I wanted the sky, I wanted the space To lose every boundary, to run from this place A coordinate lost in the infinite blue But the higher I climb, the more I need you [Chorus] (Heavy syncopated fretless slap bass and complex Phonk-inspired drums enter) (Shifting time signature groove) I'm a kite in the gale, but I need the line! Holding me tight, keeping me fine! Without your grip, I would drift and decay Shattered and lost in the cold, empty grey It's the pull of the string that lets me rise! The anchor of love that rules my skies! [Verse 2] The storm is a current of pressure and doubt It wants to disconnect, to snuff me out But I feel the tension, the pulse in the thread A steady direction when gravity's dead Freedom isn't falling, away from your hand It's knowing exactly where I'm going to land [Chorus] (Heavy syncopated fretless slap bass and complex Phonk-inspired drums) (Shifting time signature groove) I'm a kite in the gale, but I need the line! Holding me tight, keeping me fine! Without your grip, I would drift and decay Shattered and lost in the cold, empty grey It's the pull of the string that lets me rise! The anchor of love that rules my skies! [Outro] (Drums drop out, leaving only the sliding fretless bass and shimmering IDM textures) The tension is sweet... It's the only thing keeping my wings complete. (Fades out on a single sustained bass harmonic)
