Translator
When working on this assignment I actually had a really good time with writing the lyrics it came to me relatively naturally and I felt very inspired when making the layout of them. I felt freer and more comfortable than usual singing on this one and that honestly was really exciting for me! I don’t necessarily like the sound of my vocals any more on this than any of my other songs but it felt really good to give myself permission to sing here.
I had a relatively difficult time with the musical accompaniment with this song but I managed to get through it by allowing myself many attempts. I am not particularly happy with the drums I ended up with but I couldn’t figure out anything I liked better though looking back now I would build a slower pattern. I am quite happy with the arrangement of the synth lead and think it is quite a fun MIDI to use. I find the lyrics are quite self explanatory but also make use of the translator prompt.
LYRICS:
Like a bolt of lightning
you never strike twice
forecast today
said it’d be dry
that was a lie
that was a lie
it rains in my heart
tonight
REPEAT
you fed me
fantasy
til your ink ran dry
I read between the lines
every night
every night
eyes open wide
my vision doubles
these empty bottles
in your honor
thinking should I call her?
motion denied
motion denied
I’ll sleep alone tonight.
