Lyrics
Lyrics by Junia Brutus Copyright © 2025
Verse 1: whimper
Adagio tempo 68, arpeggiated piano (C#m7/E → F#m9) with legato strings in counterpoint
When the clock strikes midnight
And the world is asleep
I wander through our memories
That I forever keep
Bridge
Modulation
Your voice in the darkness
Softly calls my name
In the silence between seconds
Our love remains the same
Whimper Chorus
Largo tempo 52
Letters tied with ribbon
Words of love we shared
I read them by the firelight
Feeling you're still there
Each line a precious treasure
Each phrase a sweet refrain
In the silence between seconds
I hear you once again
Verse 2
Piano+celesta octave doubling (F# Aeolian mode), detuned music box samples
Strolling through the park
Where we carved our names
The tree still stands tall
But nothing is the same
Bridge
Lydian mode modulation (B Lydian), glass harmonica + waterphone textures
Yet in the rustling leaves
I sense your gentle touch
In the silence between seconds
I miss you oh so much
Emotional Chorus
Polymetric clash (3/4 vs. 4/4), augmented strings + granular synth bursts
Time may march forward
But my heart stands still
Waiting for the moment
When our souls will fulfill
Through every tick and tock
Through sunshine and through rain
In the silence between seconds
Coda: Spectral processing, piano+voice solo with infinite reverb tail
I'll find you again
I'll keep our love alive
In memories so dear
In the silence between seconds
I know you're always near
