Lyrics
[Verse 1 - deep atmospheric pads, sidechained bass pulse, soft female vocals with heavy reverb]
I still feel you in the static
Every silence screams your name
I’m dancing through the aftermath
But nothing ever feels the same
[Pre-Chorus - rising synths, vocal chops, tension build with filtered drums]
I reach for something that isn’t there
Your ghost is in the strobe light glare
Trying to hold on but you slip away
Heartbeat syncing with the decay
[Chorus - massive drop, distorted supersaw leads, pitched-up female vocals, heavy sub bass]
You’re gone but the beat still plays
I’m losing you in every wave
Hands up high but I’m falling down
Drowning in the rhythm of losing you now
You’re gone but the beat still plays
I’m losing you in every wave
Lights flash loud but the dark stays loud
Losing you, losing you, losing you now
[Verse 2 - glitchy vocal chops, tighter hi-hats, darker low-end]
I scroll through pictures in the silence
Your smile frozen in the frame
I turn the music up to drown it
But every song still spells your name
[Pre-Chorus 2 - filtered snare rolls, vocal stacks rising, more aggressive synths]
I keep pretending you’re still around
Your laugh is lost inside the sound
Trying to dance like I’m not alone
But every beat just brings you home
[Chorus - massive drop, distorted supersaw leads, pitched-up female vocals, heavy sub bass]
You’re gone but the beat still plays
I’m losing you in every wave
Hands up high but I’m falling down
Drowning in the rhythm of losing you now
You’re gone but the beat still plays
I’m losing you in every wave
Lights flash loud but the dark stays loud
Losing you, losing you, losing you now
[Bridge - stripped back, only sub bass and vocal chops, vulnerable whispered vocals]
If I turn the volume down
Would I still hear you in the dark?
If I let the silence in
Would you come back to my heart?
[Outro - fading supersaws, ethereal reverb pads, gradual vocal delay repeats]
Losing you… losing you…
Still losing you…
