So, I've been struggling mentally again lately and decided to write a song about it in hopes that it would help my mental state. I thought I'd share it with you all. I considered posting a vocal on YouTube but decided against it. Let me know what you think. I also labeled the sections.
(Verse 1)
In the quiet of the night, where shadows gently fall,
A heart beats softly, barely making a call.
Loneliness surrounds, in the silence it’s so loud,
Seeking just one soul, who can lift this heavy cloud.
(Chorus)
I’m reaching out, can you hear me now?
In the darkness, I am lost somehow.
Hold me close, don’t let me go,
In your arms, I want to know.
(Verse 2)
The days blend into nights, a blur without a fight,
Hoping for a dawn, where the sun can shine so bright.
In the mirror, I can see, someone I don’t know,
A stranger in my skin, feeling all alone.
(Chorus)
I’m reaching out, can you hear me now?
In the darkness, I am lost somehow.
Hold me close, don’t let me go,
In your arms, I want to know.
(Bridge)
Every tear that falls, is a silent plea,
For someone to hold, to finally see me.
Whisper words of hope, show me I belong,
In this fragile world, where I’ve felt so wrong.
(Chorus)
I’m reaching out, can you hear me now?
In the darkness, I am lost somehow.
Hold me close, don’t let me go,
In your arms, I want to know.
(Outro)
So I’m reaching out, in this final hour,
Hoping for a touch, a hand with gentle power.
Save me from the night, bring me to the light,
In your love, make everything alright.
(Verse 1)
In the quiet of the night, where shadows gently fall,
A heart beats softly, barely making a call.
Loneliness surrounds, in the silence it’s so loud,
Seeking just one soul, who can lift this heavy cloud.
(Chorus)
I’m reaching out, can you hear me now?
In the darkness, I am lost somehow.
Hold me close, don’t let me go,
In your arms, I want to know.
(Verse 2)
The days blend into nights, a blur without a fight,
Hoping for a dawn, where the sun can shine so bright.
In the mirror, I can see, someone I don’t know,
A stranger in my skin, feeling all alone.
(Chorus)
I’m reaching out, can you hear me now?
In the darkness, I am lost somehow.
Hold me close, don’t let me go,
In your arms, I want to know.
(Bridge)
Every tear that falls, is a silent plea,
For someone to hold, to finally see me.
Whisper words of hope, show me I belong,
In this fragile world, where I’ve felt so wrong.
(Chorus)
I’m reaching out, can you hear me now?
In the darkness, I am lost somehow.
Hold me close, don’t let me go,
In your arms, I want to know.
(Outro)
So I’m reaching out, in this final hour,
Hoping for a touch, a hand with gentle power.
Save me from the night, bring me to the light,
In your love, make everything alright.
To me, the melody I pictured in my mind sounds like acoustic guitars with a nylon lead; while a violin has some subtle inclines.
