💖❤️😍💛💚💙💜💓💞💕💖😍❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜💖💓💞💕😍❤️ Hello! I'm thrilled to share my passion for songwriting with you. I write my own lyrics and I'm proud to say that many of my songs are worth a listen. I mark my favorites with a Gold Star, so you can easily find them. I appreciate all forms of support. However, I want to acknowledge that taking the time to listen to my songs means the world to me. If you simply vote up without listening, I'll respond in kind with a vote up as well - thank you for the support! But if you take the time to actually listen to my songs, I'll make sure to do the same for you. Feel free to use the reuse prompt option on any of my songs, just be sure to give credit where credit is due. Please reference my original work and include a link to my Suno profile (https://suno.com/@morbidmelodies) wherever you use my lyrics. I'm passionate about discussing lyrics and techniques with fellow music lovers. If you'd like to chat about songwriting or get feedback on your work, I'm always here to help. You can even reach out to me via email (found in my bio). Let's make music together and support each other's creative endeavors! 💖❤️😍💛💚💙💜💓💞💕💖😍❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜💖💓💞💕😍❤️ [Genre: female vocals, lo-fi emo, 70s avant-garde, singer songwriter, Lo-fi Folk, folk-pop, experimental, introspective jazz undertones] [Instruments: Acoustic Guitar, Upright Bass, Piano, Muted Trumpet, Saxophone, Violin, Cello and Baya drums.] [Key: D minor] [Tempo: 120-130 BPM] [Intro][Instruments: Soft fingerpicked acoustic guitar, with cello underscoring] [Vocal: Whispered, almost spoken] I had everything… once upon a time... [Low husky feminine vocals] [Verse 1] White picket fences, garden in bloom, Warm Sunday dinners in a soft-lit room. Your laughter, like music, filled up the walls, In that small piece of heaven, where I had it all. [Chorus][Instruments: Muted trumpet solo between vocal lines][Key: C Minor] But I left it behind for the lights on a stage, Traded the calm for the thrill and the rage. Thought fame was the answer, the ultimate win, But now I’m empty where I once had everythin'. [Verse 2] Echoes of footsteps on hardwood floors, I hear them at night behind closed doors. The sound of our dreams, the life we’d begun, Lost in the spotlight, undone, one by one. [Chorus][Instruments: Saxophone harmonizing] But I left it behind for applause and the show, Traded your warmth for the fans in the rows. Thought I’d find freedom, thought I could sing, But all that I lost was everything. [Bridge][Instruments: Upright bass solo, melancholy, paired with muted trumpet] The road is empty, the stage feels retold, Chasing a fire that’s burned out, cold. The cost of the climb, the price of the fight, Was losing the only real joy in my life. [Verse 3][Instruments: Soft, haunting accompaniment with cello and muted trumpet] Never a moment to myself, yet alone just the same, So far from my skin, deep down it’s a game. Filling the moments that once made me thrive, Now I have everything, yet feel barely alive. [Verse 4][Tempo: Slower][[Instruments: stripped down with acoustic guitar and upright bass] Don’t worry, dear, you’re not bothering me, So used to the noise, I can be alone in this sea. There’s no real connection with the friends that abound, They don’t know the real me, left back in that town. [Chorus][Instruments: Strings swell as vocals grow softer] I left it behind, for the glitter and gold, A life that feels hollow, a heart gone cold. Fame was a promise, but a broken wing, Now I know what I had was everything. [Outro][Instruments: Soft piano and saxophone fading out, like a whisper] If I could go back, take it all down, Trade every marquee, give up the crown. For that small piece of heaven I left behind… Where I once had everything, and everything was mine. [Short cello solo] [Final Refrain][Slower tempo][Almost spoken] Now I have everything, but the everything I had, Standing in the spotlight, yet feeling so sad. Lost in the shine, in the glitter and the fad, Now I have everything… but the everything I had. [end][silence]
