A Minor Euphoria
*

This song is not in a battle


Lyrics are here: http://forum.bandamp.com/Lyrics_Review/47099.html
And below:

A Minor Euphoria

I'm buckled from this ever growing weight,
But I won't accept my fate,
I'm all alone, I'm so depressed,
But I'll always try my best,
Don't hold me back, don't hold me down,
Or I'll be here to watch you drown,
I'm fighting now, I'm fighting still,
Push the limit of my skill

Chorus:
I'm drowning now, thanks to eu-phor-i-a
I'm falling down, drunk with eu-phor-i-a
I'm safe and sound, here I rest upon the ground,
I will go without a sound, with a minor euphoria,

My adolescence is growing thin,
I came outside can't get back in,
I stole away, without regret,
Now I doubt I will forget,
And I lay here broken, like the porcelain,
I cannot be so whole again,
With my shattered soul, and this lonely song,
These shards of heart are all thats left to stand on,

Chorus

I'm shining through, a reproachful past,
I hope it ain't too good to last,
This minor outcry, for a little bliss,
Will never meet the angel's kiss,
So far from life, your faltered faith,
Is not enough to keep us safe,
When all is lost, and the life outgrown,
You're too afraid to die alone,

Bridge:
I'm not gonna play your games of life,
I'm not gonna trade your day for night,
I'm not gonna go,
I'm not gonna stay for the show,
X2
Chorus

I think I made a few changes, probably in the lyrics forum...

This needs vocals added, so PM me if you're interested, and check out my other songs that need vox. I've got a hindful more on their way, so, keep your eyes out for them.

Cheers

Nice playing
The arrangement is pretty good, but this is crying out for the vocals that you know it needs!
Not sure about the synth strings - too artificial for my tastes.  The drum loop could be varied a bit to improve the dynamic range of the whole piece
But still a good bit of music for all that.

nice joanna
Like the piano in particullar, perhaps lower the synth a little in the mix to ballance out the ivories, although I'm assuming that the vox would replace the synth. Perhaps a bass line?

Thanks for the comments, now, the synth, I'm still searching for a synth sound that fits with the piano. When vocals are recorded, I might lower the synth or remove it (not sure which). I haven't gone into too much detail with the drum loops, however, the drum loops in the chorus... there's 2 different sets of loops there!!! It fills it out more nicely, but I could look into more variation for sure (the next track I aim to finish has a 4/4 loop, with the 4th beat chopped off, to fit the 3/4 beat, so that's allowed me to realise the depth and variation I should go for in the drums). I thought about adding a bassline, the last few songs I posted had basslines, but I've put it in with the piano to give a more natural sound, which I personally prefer for the song, however, if, with the vocals inserted, it needs a bit of filling out, the bass (and drums) will definitely go into it.

Cheers for the comments.
