"In Your Shadow"
A slow, melancholic track in the minimalist style of early 80s new wave. Clean electric guitar arpeggio with chorus effect, soft rimshot snare and sparse drums, subtle bass. Intimate, dry male vocal with breathy, restrained tone like Sting. Dark, emotional lyrics with poetic imagery. Female backing vocals enter in chorus with airy reverb. No synths. Moody and atmospheric. Tempo ~84 BPM.

Lyrics
Every time I hear your name
I freeze like I’ve been set aflame
Every night I watch the door
Hoping you'll return once more
Every street I walk alone
Feels like I’m carved in stone
In your shadow I remain
In your silence, there’s my pain
In the echo of your eyes
I find the truth, I hear the lies
I trace the steps you used to take
On shattered ground I can’t remake
You vanished like a morning trace
But I still see your ghosted face
In your shadow I remain
In your silence, there’s my pain
Still I wait, still I see
You left your mark inside of me
