Close To You

my body's my true north

heartstrings

Distant

Indifference

Julia

Lyrics:

You know me well
Still hard to tell
What’s going on
Cause I fall from grace
Each and everyday
Oh drop the hat
But I don’t wanna lesson
No, I’m only confessin’
That I might just be

A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult

Cause when I’m rocking the place
I’m never far away
From a mess again
(Mess again, mess again)
But you stay by my side
I’m left wondering why?
Cause I know that I’m obsessive
(Oh I’m obsessive babe)
But you are my main obsession
(Ooo)
Still I might just be

A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult

(Difficult)
Ooo but am I pushing you outta reach?
(Difficult)
Tell me baby how long is my leash?
(Difficult)
Ooo well tell me how long?
Oh how long?

Oh but I don’t want any lessons
I’m only now confessin’
That I might just be

A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult, difficult
(Oh I’m a difficult love)
A difficult love
A difficult love
A difficult love
I’m so difficult

make your live show too: 

Tempo: 88 BPM]  [ male voice, male singer ]
[Key: F minor]  
[Intro – soft lofi drums, Rhodes chords, distant vinyl crackle, bass groove slowly fades in]

🎙️ [spoken-rap / half-sung tone – relaxed, introspective delivery]

Sitting by the  dirty window,  dusty morning street, 
watching cities slide like dreams.  
Every street’s a heartbeat,  like a stroke of heart
every stop another thought I leave behind.  

🎙️ [vocal – smooth, half-melodic phrasing]

Coffee’s cold,  
but my mind’s still working on memories with you
Yesterday’s light still stuck  
on my sleeve., 
I don't mind, you had to leave...

🎙️ [spoken – deeper voice, slight rhythmic flow]

People run,  
but I stay still.  
Some rush to catch the world,  
I’m just trying to feel ..
the scent, the smell, pain and pleasure
you'r the one
who started this game.

🎙️ [chorus – sung falsetto, soft harmonies behind]

Window seat —  
my private film., monochrome, black and white
Sky’s the script, which someone's stolen
and I’m just breathing in the lines, which do not exists...

🎙️ [short instrumental break – mellow guitar riff, brushed snare pattern]

🎙️ [spoken – rhythmic phrasing like Chance or Saba]

Somewhere between  
hope and habit,  
I find my rhythm.  
Between chaos and calm,  
I find me.  

🎙️ [outro – quiet, intimate delivery]

Bus keeps rolling,  
heart keeps timing.  
I’m not lost —  
I’m arriving.  

[Outro – fading Rhodes and vinyl hiss, faint sound of rain on glass]
