Orbit Decay
Screamo, soft math rock, shimmering clean guitars with layered delay, sudden tempo and time signature changes (mostly 6/8 and 9/8), fragile whispered verses contrasted with raw screamed choruses, deep bass presence, dynamic builds from minimal to explosive, emotional and atmospheric

Lyrics
Intro - slow clean arpeggio, faint harmonics
We were satellites,
Tracing circles we thought were straight.
Every orbit felt infinite…
Until the pull broke.
Verse 1 - whisper, barely above guitar
Your voice was a compass I could never read,
Always pointing somewhere I couldn’t reach.
I learned to count the quiet in seconds,
But time won’t stay still for me.
Pre-Chorus - soft, suspended chord
I kept my hands on the map,
But the stars moved anyway.
Chorus - burst into screams + heavy chords
Orbit decay — falling through the math,
Every perfect curve snaps in half.
Gravity’s hands don’t know your name,
But they pull just the same.
Verse 2 - 9/8 riff, clean guitar with bass slides
We bent the rules to make them fit,
Tied knots in the clock until it split.
Your shadow’s still written in the lines,
Even when the ink is dry.
Bridge - sudden drop to minimal clean guitar
[Softly] I’m still counting rotations…
[Screamed] But the axis is gone.
Chorus - evolved, layered screams and clean backing vocals
Orbit decay — tearing through the plan,
Every constant fails where it began.
Gravity laughs, but never explains,
Why it pulls… and why it drains.
Outro - clean guitar swells fading to silence
We were satellites,
But no one stays in the sky forever.
