Only With One Single Breath
Opening with lush synth pads and airy keys, the track layers a syncopated synthwave bass under dreamy synth choirs phrases. Big, reverb-heavy drums anchor the groove. Verses feature a soulful female duet, building into soaring, harmonized choruses. Glam rock guitar licks punctuate crescendos, maintaining a full, epic, and uplifting AOR texture throughout, ideal for a neon-lit night drive. A soft gentle tune of melodic metal

Lyrics
There’s something waiting in the quiet
In the space between each sound
Every thought I try to finish
Turns to something I can’t pronounce
I feel it moving without motion
Like a shadow in my lungs
Every second stretches thinner
Like it’s already been undone
[Pre-Chorus]
I hold my breath to keep it out
But it was never on the outside
[Chorus]
(Only with one single breath)
I let the silence cave my chest
I tried to speak—it spoke instead
And filled the space with something dead
(Only with one single breath)
I felt it settle in my head
Now every word I almost say
Is pulled apart and slips away
[Verse 2]
Now the mirror doesn’t answer
When I ask it who I am
There’s a fracture in the echo
Like it’s following a plan
Every sentence feels infected
Like it’s rotting as it forms
There’s a rhythm in the static
Like it’s learning all my norms
[Pre-Chorus]
I bite my tongue to make it stop
But it just listens closer
[Chorus]
(Only with one single breath)
I let the silence cave my chest
I tried to speak—it spoke instead
And filled the space with something dead
(Only with one single breath)
I felt it settle in my head
Now every word I almost say
Is pulled apart and slips away
[Bridge]
Don’t say it—
don’t let it take the shape
Don’t think it—
don’t let it find its place
It doesn’t need a sound to stay
It lives in what I almost say
[Breakdown]
I never lost my voice—
it was replaced
[Final Chorus]
(Only with one single breath)
I let the silence cave my chest
I tried to speak—it spoke instead
And filled the space with something dead
(Only with one single breath)
I felt it settle in my head
Now every word I almost say
Is pulled apart—
and fades away
