Folk-Pop, Americana, I originally composed this melody years ago for another song but ended creating a new melody for the other song. I decided to write new lyrics for my older unused melody. I worked on this song day and night for almost 3 weeks

Artist picture
Words, music, art, life. Let's change the world.
Multi-genre artist, singer/songwriter, poet, lyricist. No longer able to perform due to disability, uses synthetic vocals or instruments for some of my songs. I've removed most of my older music over the years, but I kept Queen of Vampires because it's iconic and will always remain forever in my heart. For 20 years, everyone knew me as Vryl. I am still and always be Vryl. Vryl was born from Vryl Valkyrie, a virtual woman in Second Life, my alter ego, a place of refuge and artistic expression and from that place I wrote poetry and composed music. Yes, I will always be Vryl. But after Paul died, I needed a rebirth. That's why I changed to Norwrei. Writing and music have always been my sanctuary, my healing stone and my secret garden, but recently I've decided to start exploring what is possible with AI. I love people and getting to know people. If you want to know me or if you want to collaborate, please feel free to contact me. I'm also open to writing lyrics for your instrumentals. I am an American woman currently in France, so it may time to get back to you. Thanks for reading my page and listening to my music. Special thanks to SoundClick for still being here after all the years.

Story behind the song
I originally composed this melody years ago for another song but ended creating a new melody for the other song. I decided to write new lyrics for my older unused melody. I worked on this song day and night for almost 3 weeks.
Lyrics
Passing time... In an empty room... In an unfamiliar place, Across... a big pond. Faded memories... Reminding me... Of the life... I left behind... I'm... starting life again... Moving past the hurt and pain... Writing a new song... A melody...Down Crabapple Lane... Words, That linger on... mmm... Words, Like healing stones. Words, That bring me home... Words... I was Raised By my grandma... And her mother... Two strong women... From Louisiana... They taught me how... To be brave... And to never give up... To know my worth... When I am down... Words... Steadfast in time, Like a Pencil Pine... Looking upwards, Collecting rays of light... Mmm... Gonna keep the hope alive... Cause Words... Bring me home... In my life and songs... They... Bring me home... I'm... starting life again... Moving past the hurt and pain... Writing a new song... Sharing my words...Down Crabapple Lane... Songs, That linger on... mmm... Words, And forgotten songs. Songs, That keep me strong Words... That linger on, That Keep me strong That bring me home... That bring me home... mmm...
