⌞⠀⠀Requiem - Dear Even Hansen⠀⠀⌟ ⠀1:05 ───⊙─────── 4:17 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀↻ ◁ II ▷ ↺ ♫ Info I'm so sorry this entry is a bit late, I had a lot of life stuff last minute and only got the chance to record last night, and then life got crazy again. Hopefully you accept this as an entry, but if not, that's fine as well <3 I sang requiem from dear even hansen, since I'm learning it for a showcase I have coming up. Usually I belt it, but my microphone can't handle the volume and will clip out quite terribly. when you press the green flag you'll hear me singing the song in falsetto, but if you go inside the project there are two takes of me belting it lol just uh horrible sounds warning if you do choose to go listen to them. The recordings are all about four minutes long, and it's acapella because I do NOT have time to mix a full cover at the moment. If you read all that thank you for taking the time to do so, and without further ado, here are the lyrics! ♫ Lyrics Why should I play this game of pretend? Remembering through a secondhand sorrow? Such a great son and wonderful friend Oh don't the tears just pour I can curl up and hide in my room There in my bed still sobbing tomorrow I could give in to all of the gloom But tell me, tell me what for Why should I have a heavy heart? Why should I start to break in pieces? Why should I go and fall apart for you? Why should I play the grieving girl and Lie saying that I miss you And that my world has gone dark without your light I will sing no requiem tonight You were the flood that swallowed us whole refusing a love we endlessly gave you you were a fire out of control the blaze that couldn't be tamed Why should I have a heavy heart? Why should I say I'll keep you with me? Why should I go and fall apart for you? Why should I play the grieving girl and lie saying that I miss you And that my world has gone dark without your light I will sing no requiem Tonight 'Cuz when the villains fall, the kingdoms never weep No one lights a candle to remember No, no one mourns at all When they lay them down to sleep So don't tell me that I didn't have it right Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white After all you've put me through, don't say it wasn't true That you were not the monster that I knew, 'Cuz I cannot play the grieving girl and lie Saying that I miss you and that my world has gone dark I will sing no requiem I will sing no requiem tonight oo-oohh oooo--ohhhh ♫ Credits -chocolate for hosting this competition and reminding me to join! -me for the singing -thumbnail made on canva
