Too Quiet Without You

The rhythm hits the air, soft and very slow The quiet, sudden silence that the breakup starts to know The hazy synth pads are spreading, vast and very wide The necessary distance where the broken feelings hide The melodic vocal enters, clear and very sad Remembering the honest moments that we thought we had I feel the space around me, dictated by the sound The biggest kind of empty that the lonely night has found

The soft drums pulse gently, holding the heavy air A gentle, rhythmic reminder of the things we couldn't share The wide reverb carries forward, stretching out so deep The final, honest promise that the silent moments keep I watch the feeling strengthen, cold and very real The easy, constant sorrow that the broken heart can feel The subtle 808s are low, a painful, steady ache The final, fragile structure that the melody must take

I lean into the feeling, letting the emptiness pull and stay Washing all the busy noise of the world far away The trap rhythm continues, patient and so sure The single, final knowledge that I know will long endure The voice holds steady, clear and very low The necessary truth that the wide open spaces show The harmonies float outward, vast and very wide The only comfortable place where the final tears can hide.

The music holds the final moment, the soft drums start to cease Leaving only the deep, unburdened sound of final, quiet peace. The wide reverb lingers, airy and very low The final, sad truth that the gentle spirit knows.
