This is the only version available. This instrumental track begins with soft synths and looping piano chords. A high-pitched melody played on a dampened and/or detuned piano enters over the top. After several measures, this melody then shifts down one octave. After several more measures, synth bass comes in. A quick but disorienting pan to the left happens at around the two minute mark. As the song nears its end, the synth bass disappears and a different high-pitched melody comes in. This melody closes out the song, isolated and slowing down slightly.
