Laura Wade - ​Cracks in the View (Official Audio)

​"You measured the surface, you swore it was deep..." ​"Cracks in the View" is a dark alt-pop and trip-hop track built on a heavy 85 BPM breakbeat, deep sub-bass pulse, and atmospheric vinyl haze. Moving from breathy, intimate vocals to an explosive dynamic release, it explores the gap between how someone sees you and the chaotic reality hidden beneath the surface. ​If you enjoy darkwave tension, moody downtempo grooves, and cinematic alt-pop, hit like and subscribe for more original releases.

You think you know the truth! Still holding onto memories Of a ghost you used to use! Look a little closer at the cracks in the view— You don't know me at all, I don't even know you! ​[Verse 2] I left every footprint you wanted to track I showed you the mirror, but hid what was back You loved the illusion, you missed the whole storm Still trying to bend what was never your form ​[Pre-Chorus] Every secret locked under the floor Is pulling the hinges right off of the door You counted the light, but you swallowed the shade Now you’re caught in the mess that your confidence made ​[Chorus] 'Cause you really think you know me! You think you know the truth! Still holding onto memories Of a ghost you used to use! Look a little closer at the cracks in the view— You don't know me at all, I don't even know you! ​[Bridge] [Music Cutout] No one knows me... No one cares... Turn off the lights... Look in my eyes... Tell me again that you know what's inside... ​[Screamed Vocal] You don’t know a thing! ​[Breakbeat Drop / Heavy Bass Synth Solo] ​[Final Chorus] 'Cause you really think you know me! You think you know the truth! Still holding onto memories Of a ghost you used to use! Look a little closer at the cracks in the view— You don't know me at all! No, you don't know me at all! ​[Outro] You don't know me... You never did... Cracks in the view... Swallowed the shade... ​#DarkAltPop ​#TripHop ​#Downtempo ​#LauraWade ​#OriginalMusic ​#Darkwave ​#Breakbeat ​#CinematicMusic
