Violin and Vocal Call-and-Response
Create an emotional piece where violin and vocals trade melodic phrases in a call‑and‑response flow. The violin leads with expressive lines, the vocals answer with matching motifs. Keep it cinematic, intimate, and fluid, with smooth transitions and shared themes
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You pull across the strings
I answer with my throat
We're speaking without speaking
Your wood against my breath
The rent is three weeks late
But here we are again
Trading lines like labor
Like something we both owe
[Chorus]
You draw it out of me
What I can't say in words
The bow knows where I'm breaking
The bow knows where it hurts
[Verse 2]
My mother worked two shifts
To keep the heat turned on
You sound like that exhaustion
You sound like holding on
I watch your shoulder move
The same way mine contracts
When I'm too tired for crying
When I'm too proud to ask
[Chorus]
You draw it out of me
What I can't say in words
The bow knows where I'm breaking
The bow knows where it hurts
[Bridge]
Sometimes I think we're the same thing
Just different ways to bleed
You with your horsehair tension
Me with this desperate need
[Chorus]
You draw it out of me
What I can't say in words
The bow knows where I'm breaking
The bow knows where it hurts
[Outro]
Your last note holds
I hold my breath
We finish
Together
