how the heart breaks

The track is like autumn rain: it slowly creeps into your consciousness, taking away a piece of hope with each beat and leaving a void that is hard to ignore. It is not a sudden, catastrophic destruction - it is a long process, when the pain gradually gains strength, when it takes its time and still pierces you, even if you don't want to think about it.

Like an old building that is crumbling from rain and time - first minor cracks, then more and more, until one day you realise that it is no longer what it used to be. With each chord, it becomes clearer: the moment does not go away, love does not go away, that feeling does not go away when you think that everything is already over, but in fact it is only just beginning.

The melancholy here is not too obvious, but it is accurate. This track is not about drama or tragedy, but rather about how small voids form entire chasms that cannot be hidden. Love, forgiveness, separation - all of this is quietly but persistently destroyed. It's that moment after the party, when the lights go out and you're left alone with what you've been trying to put off for so long.
