Harmonic Analysis & Structure
Key: B minor (natural minor)

The loop repeats throughout the verses and the hook, with the bridge introducing a brief shift to Em7 before returning to the main progression.
Harmonic function: i7 – VIImaj7 – VImaj7 – V7 creates a descending bass line (B‑A‑G‑F♯) that underpins the reflective mood of the track.
