Composition
"Roxas" is approximately one minute long in the original version, fifty-three seconds long in the HD remake, and two minutes and thirty-six seconds for the piano collections cover. It plays at a tempo of 60 beats per minute. It has a time signature of 4/4 and is written in the key of D minor. The instrumentation consists of flute, piano, and female vocals.
The music itself gives off a mellow, melancholy feel. There are two measures of piano with backing vocals before the melody comes in. This melody is carried by the flute, which features a prominent vibrato in the HD remix version. In the first 4-measure phrase, the accompaniment starts on the D minor chord, which brings the melancholy mood, but it gradually gets more uplifting as the chords shift the tonic to d minor's relative F Major. The second 4-measure phrase has an identical melody to the first, but this time the accompaniment begins on F Major, making the repeated phrase sound much brighter. However, Roxas's story was always steeped in sorrow, and as such, for the final 2-measure phrase, the accompaniment jumps back to the tragic D minor, low and heavy on the piano.
