Vanished

Liner Notes

A song about love and loss
#poprock

Lyrics

Misty mornings, empty chair
Traces of you everywhere
Perfume lingers in the air
But when I turn, you're not there

Like shadows in the night
You've slipped out of sight

Vanished, vanished without a trace
(Where did you go?)
Vanished, left an empty space
(I need to know)
Memories fade, pictures turn to gray
Vanished, vanished away

Old cafes where we'd meet
Now just strangers on the street
Favourite song on the radio
Reminds me of what I can't let go

Like shadows in the night
You've slipped out of sight

Vanished, vanished without a trace
(Where did you go?)
Vanished, left an empty space
(I need to know)
Memories fade, pictures turn to gray
Vanished, vanished away

In dreams, I see your face
In crowds, I slow my pace
Hoping to catch a glimpse of you
But you're gone, vanished from view

Vanished, vanished like morning dew
(Where are you now?)
Vanished, everything we knew
(Tell me how)
Time marches on, what is left to say?
Vanished, vanished away

Vanished.. into thin air
Vanished... but I still care

Very cool how the different vocal treatments each act like a different instrument. The musical change-ups are well done. I can imagine the higher-energy parts of the song being adapted as a mystery/thriller theme song.

Really love the urgent chord progression in the intro. You could take this in a lot of directions production wise. Very cool. Your voice also reminds me a little of Martin Newell.

Simply lovely song again. P.S. Our favorite software producer DREAMTONICS just put out a new effect for vocals--AI or otherwise--that looks really, really interesting.

Great, great job on this--amazing what you are able to put together! ❤️
