~"What's promised is never delivered... Trust the omens"~ Hello! This is a song that is very different from others that I've shared before; instead of having an acoustic production, I tried using my recording software (Soundtrap) to make a synth-pop-ish song. While it doesn't sound incredibly professional, I am pretty proud of the instrumental. :) When it came to the vocals, some of them aren't amazing, seeing as I've had an on-and-off cold/sore throat for the past few weeks as I've been trying to record. However, I like my experimentation with harmonies! Finally, the lyrics are about a past relationship with one of my friends, and I incorporated "bad omens" such as a black cat and breaking a mirror. I really hope you like this song, as I've spent a lot of time and effort on it! <3 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Lyrics: Verse 1- Threw your coins into the well Do wishes come true? I never can tell We'd talk for hours about your wrongs I gave you comfort, thought your facade had fallen quickly like the salt-stained tears you showed me I've never been so vulnerable or fast to write a story where we grow old together and all storms can be weathered, but the dark grey clouds descend, and you find another end Chorus- You're the black cat crossing my path, echoes of your laugh distracting me from the fact that you're never coming back You evade me (Am I crazy?) No one ever dearer, never clearer gazing at your reflection in the mirror, broken seven years but never nearer to the answers (of my questions) just the omens Verse 2- (So many) places I'll go, wishing I could hold your hand not quite alone, but desperate to pretend, and one day, I thought I saw you walking (by) I was too tongue-tied to bring myself to say anything (I tried) but that dark-haired stranger isn't you (isn't you) I'm avoiding all the issues (issues) that I never caused, I'll say it's all my fault, but you knew that I tend to jump to conclusions, and everything ends in ruin I'm sorry if I made you bored, but your love can't be restored, and Chorus- you're the black cat crossing my path, echoes of your laugh distracting me from the fact that you're never coming back You evade me (Am I crazy?) No one ever dearer, never clearer gazing at your reflection in the mirror, broken seven years but never nearer to the answers (of my questions) just the omens Outro- Rain down my clothes, spine shivers The four-leafed clovers withered Does lying make you a sinner when what's promised is never delivered? (It hurts, hoping) Trust the omens ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Credits: ✩ Background Music- (me) ✩ Lyrics- Me! ✩ Thumbnail- Made on Canva by me ✩ Code - Me
