Hello everyone! :)

I uploaded a new song around a week ago, and I also have a music video for it. As usual, I'd ask you to listen to the song and share your honest thoughts! Thank you so much!

Here's the link:



Lyrics:

It's been 4 weekends
Still taking vitamins
For my damn weakness
Can't raise my hands
Above my eyes
Sickness or
I'm just faking my existence

Poured polluted whisky in the glass
I'm being risky, aren't I?
(I'm being risky, aren't I?)

Is it just principle
That happy thoughts create new miracles
And If you're sad you can't survive
Ain't it a lie?
We're all being lied
Hurted people are scarier than criminals
(Don't forget)

What if I change my mind forever
Would you take control over me
However, I'm playing this game for a while
I know that the pain remains
As it's been injected

What if I change my mind forever
Would you take control over me
However, I'm playing this game for a while
I know that the pain remains
As it's been injected
As it's been injected

Quarter past 10
The room is full
Tho feels like I'm by myself
Staring at something
That I just don't see
My foggy mind absorbs me
Tightening like long sleeves
You saying I'm just faking my depression
Oh well

Maybe you're in the bubble you like
Knowing only things you wanna know, don't you?
I'm keeping all my problems in my fist
Swallowing words that hurt
For you violence is normal
You like it, don't ya?
No soul inside your shell
Thank me for saying that
You'd never know that you're a real coward
Observing everything you dunno
Analyzing things
My heart is beating
It's repeating every beat
And I just can't stop overthinking

I'm overthinking
I can't stop

What if I change my mind forever
Would you take control over me
However, I'm playing this game for a while
I know that the pain remains
As it's been injected

What if I change my mind forever
Would you take control over me
However, I'm playing this game for a while
I know that the pain remains
As it's been injected
As it's been injected

And I'm down, slowly drowned
I don't know what I do
What I am, what I can
Anyway I'm the same
As my past
I don't feel present here
I'm upset
I'm upset
I'm upset
I am sad
I am sad
I am sad

What if I change my mind forever
Would you take control over me
However, I'm playing this game for a while
I know that the pain remains
As it's been injected

What if I change my mind forever
Would you take control over me
However, I'm playing this game for a while
I know that the pain remains
As it's been injected
As it's been injected

This is great @Maya Clars I think it has a more of a hard edged to it that some of your other stuff which I thought was very effective. You are an incredible talent and are able to knock out some top quality modern tunes - Bravo !

What a talent you are.

You're always really generous with your comments too and always make a great contribution to the forum...it might sound a bit dopey, but I really admire that!

This sounds so contemporary and thoughtfully produced...it's right up there, if not better than the modern stuff I sometimes catch on the radio.

I wish that I could offer more of a considered opinion...but I'm probably 30+ years in advance of your target audience...but I really thought this was excellent.

Hey Maya, really liked this - the vocal melody in particular … the little lifts you give the tune, in (to me) unexpected places. Nice percussion too. Very contemporary and professional feel to it, and a good variety of vocal style during it.
It's all too beautiful.

Hi Mara,

This is fantastic! You have great talent for constructing interesting pop music. The part at 1.35 is really great…you have no wasted space, every second is interesting. Well done my friend! Keep going!😄👍🏻 In fact how is it going for you? Any radio play yet? Are you trying to get signed or do you just do it for fun like us? Sorry for the questions…I’m genuinely excited for your musical future if you keep developing your talent as you seem to do on each song. Well done mate!😄🎶🎶👊🏻🎶🎶🤩

Hi @Maya Clars, another cracking song from you.  The construction is really interesting and I love the mid 8 section.  Brilliant!

Hi @Maya Clars.

Such a a brooding, foreboding piece of music. Your voice sounds fragile and weary, as though you have endured a prolonged trauma.

It sounds to me as though there's a very dark story being told here. A cautionary tale perhaps?

It sounds as though it's difficult for people to understand your feelings. It sounds lonely to me.

The sudden syncopated part in the middle gives the song a great twist, but it also plunges to a low in terms of the lyrics. "For you violence is normal" - is this a part of your past? It was very brave to write about it, if so.

The video works very well. I feel it brings out the lonely aspect of the music, to see you singing on your own in a large open space. I don't know if that's the effect you intended.

Very dark, very moving. Well done.

Hello everyone! :)

Hi @Maya Clars - I'm with the others, this is great! Perfectly catchy and dark also, which I do like.  Your songs are always really good and very well constructed - I think you're getting even better! Big thumbs up from me..
