Silent Skywords

{flickering guitar riff, analog synth swell} (ahhhh) {dry drum machine

entry}

Cold concrete

beneath my feet

This metal framework starts to hum

While down below, the silent street

Waits for the morning light to come

{close-mic'd reflective vocal with slight tremble} And the air is thin,

and the sky is wide (so wide) We are standing on the

edge of the divide {filter sweep

opening, analog synth riser}

High above, we watch the skyline grow

Underneath, the embers start to glow

We are alive, caught in the undertow (ooh-ooh)

{wide stereo field, stacked harmonies,

strong pulsing bass} Fading orange,

turning grey

The grid of steel begins to sigh We watch the embers

drift away

Into the heavy, quiet sky

{guitars mimicking wind over metal} High above,

we watch the skyline grow

Underneath, the embers start to glow

We are alive, caught in the undertow

(we are alive)

{full stereo climax, maximum synth

density}

Just a flicker in the dark...

(ahhhh) {drums drop

out, fading analog synths

and flickering

guitar}
