Slow surreal rock ballad with a drifting 6/8 pulse, muted electric guitar arpeggios, soft tom swells, and a low warm bass line; verse stays sparse and misty, pre-chorus opens with suspended chords and rising harmony, chorus lands with wide drums and aching stacked vocals, bridge strips to voice and guitar before the final lift. Close-mic lead vocal, breathy doubles in the chorus, tender delay throws on key phrases, reverse swells and distant bells for dreamlike transitions, warm cinematic mix
