Still I Search

V5.5

[Intro instrumental opens with reverb soaked guitar riff] Looovvveeee [Verse 1] [male vocal, distant and questioning, reverb-soaked but words still legible] It doesn't make sense I'm caught in the scales Summertime fails The burden is too much to take [Verse 2] Show me your sensibilities And I'll struggle to maintain Sacrifice your solitude For an empty hole [Chorus] [guitars swelling, hazy and searching, never triumphant] Looovvveeee Is it real, or just the echo Looovvveeee Of a thing I can't let go Still I search Still I search [Verse 3] [same questioning register, going deeper rather than resolving] Every answer just unravels Into questions I can't place Maybe love was never certain Maybe I invented the whole shape [Chorus] Looovvveeee Is it real, or just the echo Looovvveeee Of a thing I can't let go Still I search Still I search [Breakdown] [everything stops — the full wall of guitars drops out completely; only the original intro riff returns, played by a single clean guitar, alone and exposed, no reverb wash, no drums, just the bare melody] [Final Verse] [vocal returns quiet over the bare guitar, intimate and searching] Looovvveeee I don't know what you are Looovvveeee Maybe just a scar Still I search [Outro] [the wall of guitars slowly rebuilds around the riff, hazy and unresolved, fading without answering] Looovvveeee... Still I search...
