I wrote and recorded this track over a weekend in February 2011. I got a call from Hollyweird from a production company looking for a fairly specific type of song. I have no idea if the movie ever got finished, but I'm happy with the track!

STRANGE DADDY - VOODOO HACK

Walking Through the Night is a reflective and atmospheric rock ballad set against the backdrop of a solitary nighttime walk through a quiet city. The narrator moves through moonlit streets, replaying moments of the day, unspoken words, and past decisions. Each empty alley and faint glow pulls them deeper into introspection, as they weigh what they’ve gained and lost over time.
The song blends intimate emotional confessions with cinematic city imagery, gradually building in intensity. Instrumental passages—featuring guitar arpeggios, soft synths, bass grooves, piano, and saxophone—give space for the emotions to breathe.
Ultimately, the journey through the night becomes both a literal walk and a metaphor for searching for lost inspiration, with the dawn representing hope and release. The ending leaves the listener in an open, haunting mood, as the city fades into morning light.

Lyrics:

[Intro]
City lights shimmer in the midnight rain
Every drop a memory, every breath a name
The silence walks beside me, steady and near
Whispering truths I’m too afraid to hear

[Instrumental – slow, atmospheric guitar with distant synth]
[Instrumental – soft piano chords with airy synth swells]

[Verse 1]
Streetlights paint the shadows on my skin
Cold air breathing secrets deep within
Footsteps echo on the empty stone
Every sound reminds me I’m alone
The day still lingers in my restless mind
Chasing moments I can’t leave behind

[Instrumental – slow, atmospheric guitar with distant synth]

[Chorus]
I’m walking through the night, just me and the sky
The stars keep their silence while the questions pass by
If only the answers would speak in the dark
Maybe I’d find where I lost my spark

[Verse 2]
Moonlit dreams fade where the alleys bend
Faces from the morning blur and blend
Words I never spoke still burn my tongue
Truths I hid away when the day was young
Every shadow bends like a memory’s hand
Pulling me back to where I used to stand

[Instrumental – bassline groove with soft drum fills]

[Chorus]
I’m walking through the night, just me and the sky
The stars keep their silence while the questions pass by
If only the answers would speak in the dark
Maybe I’d find where I lost my spark

[Bridge]
The city’s sleeping but my heart stays wide awake
Counting every choice I’ve made, each give and take
If the dawn could heal me, I’d run to its light
But here I am, still moving through the night

[Instrumental – saxophone solo with echoing reverb]

[Verse 3]
Under silver clouds I trace my fate
Learning from the love I found too late
The wind reminds me of the roads I’ve crossed
Every gain weighed against what I lost
And though my soul feels hollow, I carry on
’Cause somewhere the morning will pull me along

[Final Chorus / Reprise]
I’m walking through the night, just me and the sky
The stars keep their silence while the questions pass by
If only the answers would speak in the dark
Maybe I’d find where I lost my spark
I’m walking through the night… until the dawn
Still walking through the night… until the dawn

[Instrumental – gradual fade with guitar arpeggios and synth pads]

[Outro]
The morning hums beyond the city wall
Shadows shrink, but I still hear their call
One more step, and the darkness lets me go
But the night still knows everything I know

[Instrumental – long, haunting fade with layered synth and soft drum heartbeat]
