Cover of original song by @bandofsorrows And yes the pianist failed in the beginning of the song, but that puts character into it :) [Intro] [Mournful solo cello] [Pensive, slow piano] And If you say You Were The 1 Who could save me From the start Then why did You Leave Here 'Cause I needed you ou ou ou ou Yes I needed You ou ou ou ou Again [Verse 1] [Soft, trembling lower register] [Audible breath and sighs] Shattered lies from The Start Empty hearts No Subtle Silence I can feel You screaming at me Not with your words But your reactions And it breaks me inside [Pre-Chorus] [Vocals gaining resonant power] [Strings begin a slow, tragic swell] Every day Is a fate I don't wanta face And I know this world is killing you slowly [Chorus] [Soaring powerhouse belt, breaking with sorrow] [Full orchestral strings fortissimo] And If you say You Were The 1 Who could save me From the start Then why did You Leave Me Here 'Cause I needed you ou ou ou ou Yes I needed You ou ou ou ou (Again) [Verse 2] [Hushed, breathy chest voice] [Faint, weeping strings in the background] And you start to Kill Me With your silence No Reaction nor Fear I can feel Your pure disdain Not with your words But your inaction Breaks me now [Pre-Chorus] [Vibrato widening with intense pain] Every night Is a cycle I don't wanta face And I know that this night will be cold [Chorus] [Massive diva crescendo, vocal agony] And If you say You Were The 1 Who could save me From the start Then why did You Leave Here 'Cause I needed you ou ou ou ou Yes I needed You ou ou ou ou (Again) [Bridge] [Pianissimo whisper turning into a dramatic wail] [Long, haunting string sustains] And you deny it You say That Everything's fine But I know that You hate To see Me Do What I love Even if I'm by your side And you think it's never enough Even By Your Side Unless you have all My attention (Attention) All my affection (AFFECTION!) [Chorus] [CLIMACTIC BREAKDOWN: Virtuosic emotional belting] [Orchestra at maximum volume and depth] And If you say You Were The 1 Who could save me From the start Then why did You Leave Me Here 'Cause I needed you ou ou ou ou Yes I needed You ou ou ou ou (Again) [Outro] [Voice trailing off into a delicate vibrato whisper] [Solitary cello and fading piano] I could be Right Beside you And it would never be enough So please spare me the pain I needed you To love Me for me And I know You have Your own pain Tooooooo Treat Me The Way You Do (The way you) Do Treat Me The Way You Do [Final shaky breath] [End]
