about

I made this track in March 2022 as a way to not get crazy over what was happening. So this is a song about the emptiness inside when nothing makes sense anymore but you need to go on somehow even if you don't want to.
Is it too dark for this page?
Well, as I'm typing these lines now you can probably tell that I survived. I am very lucky to be surrounded by wonderful people who helped me see my own light again and so I kept on going. Now I'm in a better place, both physically and (hopefully) mentally.

I did this all on my own, except for mixing and mastering, that is the work of my dear sibling Soul Strings. And this song appeared on a compilation album Downtown by VibePoniez: vibeponiez.bandcamp.com/album/downtown

lyrics

I’m falling from my tower
It’s time to face the reality
Time to spread my wings and fly away
Nothing will ever be like it used to be

I want, oh I want to see the rainbows
In this world that is all gray
To feel something like happiness
Nothing will ever be like it used to be
