Lyrics & Arrangement
[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1 – Fingerpicked acoustic guitar and vocal only, intimate and exposed, upright bass joins midway]
The back of my closet has a row of wire hangers
For clothes I'm done with but can't let go yet
They clink together when I reach for something
A textile purgatory, full of quiet regret

[Pre-Chorus – Vocal rises slightly in register, second guitar layer adds fingerpicked harmony, tension builds gently]
I spaced out watching condensation drip
A slow procession down the window's lip

[Chorus – Emotional peak — vocal at full power with harmonies, all instruments present but never loud]
Low and slow, keep it low and slow
Let the bass do all the heavy lifting
Low and slow, nowhere else to go
Just the evening and the evening drifting

[Verse 2 – Gentle brushed drums enter under confessional vocal, guitar keeps a steady fingerpicking pattern]
