How Time Flows

[INTRO]
*(soft piano — warm, intimate, gentle reverb)*
*(airy synth — slowly drifting in)*
*(clean electric guitar — faint shimmer)*
*(light percussion — barely there)*

[VERSE 1]
*(vocal — soft, conversational)*
Sun is sitting on the ceiling
Shadows moving down the wall
I've been staring at the same place
Haven't thought about it at all

There's a song stuck in my head
Don't remember where it came from
Funny how the smallest things
Can stay with you when days are gone

[PRE-CHORUS]
*(bass — slowly entering)*
*(piano — slightly brighter)*
Maybe I'm just caught inside
A little space between the hours
Watching everything pass by
Without needing to know why

[CHORUS]
*(drums open up — smooth, relaxed groove)*
*(bass — fuller, warm)*
*(wide vocal layers — subtle)*
*(piano — brighter progression)*

As the time flows
I lose track of where it goes
One minute I'm right here
Next I'm somewhere I don't know

As the time flows
I watch the whole thing unfold
Funny how the days feel different
When you don't keep counting them at all

As the time flows
I lose track of where it goes

[VERSE 2]
*(drums pull back — soft kick + muted percussion)*
*(guitar — gentle rhythmic picking)*
Someone left the door wide open
Now the hallway's getting cold
There's a picture on the table
From a year I can't quite hold

I catch myself remembering
Things I didn't mean to keep
A color, a sound, a little phrase
Then suddenly I'm somewhere else again

[PRE-CHORUS]
*(bass — subtle movement)*
*(vocal harmony — entering softly)*
Maybe that's the strange part
Nothing really has to happen
For a second to feel different
Than the one that came before it

[CHORUS]
*(drums open up — smooth groove)*
*(bass — warm and rounded)*
*(vocal doubles — light and airy)*
*(synth pad — wider)*

As the time flows
I lose track of where it goes
One minute I'm right here
Next I'm somewhere I don't know

As the time flows
I watch the whole thing unfold
Funny how the days feel different
When you don't keep counting them at all

As the time flows
I lose track of where it goes

[BRIDGE]
*(drums drop out — weightless)*
*(piano — sparse, echoing)*
*(vocal — close and conversational)*

Just going in blindly
Turning my head quickly
The light fades into the dark
But that's the challenge

*(ambient swell — slowly rising)*
*(low bass — gradually returning)*

I don't know what comes after
I just like the way it changes
Every second has a color
When you let yourself stay in it

*(drums build — gentle anticipation)*
*(vocal harmony — slowly stacking)*

[FINAL CHORUS]
*(full chill drums — smooth, open groove)*
*(bass — warm and full)*
*(piano + guitar — layered)*
*(wide vocal harmonies — emotional lift)*

As the time flows
I lose track of where it goes
Maybe that's the best part
Never knowing what I don't know

As the time flows
I watch the whole thing unfold
A little bit of yesterday
A little bit of something new

As the time flows
I lose track of where it goes
And I kinda like it that way

[OUTRO]
*(drums fade — leaving piano + guitar)*
*(airy synth — slowly disappearing)*
*(soft vocal hum — distant)*

As the time flows...
I lose track of where it goes...
