The Unfinished Symphony Of You And Me
This is my first vocal song. I have to admit that I sing like Kermit the Frog on weed.
Someone once told me that this song sounds 'progressive' and he joked that this song should be under the genre of 'progressive pop'
I've been playing the Piano since November 2003.
My influences include Maksim , Yoshiki Hayashi (Drummer/Pianist for X Japan) and Franz Liszt.
Story behind the song
Inspired by this X Japan entitled "Untitled" and I know that Franz Schubert composed his Symphony No.8 which was nicknamed as "The Unfinished Symphony".
The title "The Unfinished Symphony Of You And Me" is metaphorical. It dispicts a past relationship that never had a proper ending , hence the term "unfinished"
Lyrics
[INTRO]
[VERSE 1]
It's funny how time passes so fast
When the tears start to fade away
And you live life the way you wanted it to be
I'm walking in the shadows , an empty soul within
Kill my sorrows , drown myself in the rain
In you I see the bitterness your heart could be
Through the sands of eternity , I've lost your love inside of me
[CHORUS]
And tell me why , why do you have to say goodbye?
Don't you know how much I cried , just trying to make things right.
And tell me who , who am I to you?
Just another stranger by your side , is this the last goodbye?
[PIANO RIFF]
[VERSE 2]
Where do we go , once we're through?
Time passes by , you drift away
Paining is running through my veins
Insanity , consumes me entirely
Is this how you left me to be? I can't bear my sins forever more
The unfinished symphony of you and me
[CHORUS]
And tell me why , why do you have to say goodbye?
Don't you know how much I cried , just trying to make things right
And tell me who , who am I to you?
Just another stranger by your side , is this the last goodbye?
[Piano Solo]
[CHORUS]
And tell me why , why do you have to say goodbye?
Don't you know how much I cried , just trying to make things right
And tell me who , who am I to you?
Just another stranger by your side , is this the last goodbye?
[FINAL VERSE]
I can't take this anymore , why did you leave me so?
I am all alone , tell me it's not true
Until we say , I'm never gonna let you go
