Builds nicely and I like the self harmonising. Good lyrics. Maybe an instrumental break or a middle8 would lift it more. I like the concept of the song.

This sounds like a song I would actually listen to, great stuff on my 2000s playlist

Great song, with the repeating meldodies. Very good vocals. Interesting arrangement too

A really nice song Chris, I enjoyed it very much.

Great mix, good melody, overall pretty good.

Lyrics:
Baptised in the ocean
Over what little's left

I thought it was a traitor
God said it so it must be true
I thought that every doubt I ever had
Was intrusive but you heard it too
Born and raised into conspiracy
Bohemian Grove, blood on my hands
Father told me to bow to my newborn brother
My dedication knew no bounds

Combat myth, heaven lost
Combat myth, heaven lost
Paradise sacrificed for faith too strong
Combat myth, heaven lost
Combat myth, heaven lost
Paradise sacrificed for faith too strong

Open door to the combat myth
Back in the stomping ground
So day (ahh) in the river
Somehow (ahh) set free

The world drowned
But you stood in its ashes
Ankled soaked,
While our heads underwater
I pulled every single on up
And the praised me
I told them to thank god
They said "but you did it"
I fought the moon to bring it back into orbit
I spoke to the spirits of the races that passed
They told me they evolved to survive this torture
God wouldn't choose me so I forced him to

Combat myth, heaven lost
Combat myth, heaven lost
Paradise sacrificed for faith too strong
Combat myth, heaven lost
Combat myth, heaven lost
Paradise sacrificed for faith too strong

Open door to the combat myth
Back in the stomping ground
So day (ahh) in the river
Somehow (ahh) set free

Baptised in the ocean
Over what little's left
I've seen a vision
Of a cataclysm
A destruction
Of the end
Baptised in the ocean
Over what little's left
In the city
I was a sinner
But I swear
I won't deliver

Open door to the combat myth
Back in the stomping ground
So day (ahh) in the river
Somehow (ahh) set free

Open door to the combat myth
Back in the stomping ground
So day (ahh) in the river
Somehow (ahh) set free

Don't Take You For Granted

Sweet  

Intro Progression:   

Emaj7(#11) > Em7♭6 > EM > E(b5) > G > em > C > A > B (Lead Melody) > G  > em > C > A > B 

 

Verse 1:  

(B) One hand on the wheel, one hand on the gun, her foot on the gas, on the run 

(G) She’s run away, (em) get away, (A) leave it all (C) behind, and (A) she’s (B) gone. 

 

Verse 2 

One bird in the air, that glare in the mirror, one last breath, the last thing he saw 

Had enough today, it’s done today, left it all behind, damn his soul 

(G) Cross that line no more, (em) I’m not your whore, (A) I’m done being scared, (C) yeah, (A) I’m (B) gone 

 

Chorus:  

(Emaj7(#11) So (Em7♭6) sweet (used to be) 

(Emaj7(#11) So (Em7♭6) sweet, (used to be) 

(Emaj7(#11) So (Em7♭6) sweet (finally free) 

 

Verse 3 

One bruise on her cheek, some blood her dress, his body on the side of the road 

Yeah, he’s gone today, for good today, one bullet in the front of his skull 

 

Verse 4 

Still wakes screaming at night, feels his hand on her throat, he throws her against the wall 

He broke her heart, broke her bones, he never broke her will, bless her soul  

He can’t hurt me no more, she tells herself, not anymore  

 

 

 

Chorus:  

So sweet (used to be), So sweet, (used to be), So sweet (finally free) 

 

Bridge:  

(Em7♭6) Into the sunset she drives, time to get on with her life 

(Esus4) I just want to be me she says, just want to be free from the pain 

(Em7♭6) Okay is still so far away, one mile at a time, until that day. 

(Esus4) I just want to be me, just want to be free from the pain  

 Chorus - Outtro

Sweet

Let’s keep this moving 🔥. “Drunk Texting” is Exzenya’s playful and painfully relatable debut single, a genre-blending anthem that captures the chaos of late-night emotions and digital regrets. With sharp lyrics, a catchy hook, and a blend of humor and heart, the track tells the story of blaming your phone for the things you wish you hadn't sent while tipsy. Mixing pop, R&B, and satirical spoken word, Exzenya crafts a song that’s equal parts comedy, confession, and cautionary tale. It’s the ultimate “oops” moment set to a beat, and one you’ll want to replay, even if you’d never admit it.

(Running through the shadows)
(Running through the shadows)
(Through the shadows)
(Still lying in my bed)
(Some voices in my head)
(I'm floating in between)
(The night’s not gone just yet)

Look by the window
Is it a cockcrow ?
No matter the dream that I seek
No matter the voice that I hear

Caught in a shadow
Eyes still in slow flow
No matter the day of the week
No matter the week of the year
 
Time to make your dreams come true
The night is ending
Wake up!
Step into the blue

Light through the window
Time in a soft glow
No matter the words that we speak
No matter if silence is near

Fog on the meadow
Thoughts come and let go
No matter the height that we peak
No matter the fall that we fear

Time to make your dreams come true
The night is ending
Wake up!
Step into the blue

The sky is painting something new
No need pretending
Wake up!
The world is waiting just for you

Wake up!
The world is waiting just for you

Wake up!

Wake Up!

Do you come to my Universe?

Kiera Starr’s latest single ‘Broken Hearted’ marks the third official single from her upcoming sophomore album ‘Through My Eyes’. 

Following the release of the first two singles ‘Motel Whore’ & ‘The Great Depression’ which follow a more rock influenced sound, ‘Broken Hearted’ follows the Pop genre she is known best for. 

The self written, and self produced track, discusses topics of heartbreak, and realising a relationship isn’t working. “The song is pretty much about coming to terms with the fact that the relationship isn’t working. It also shows that the relationship wasn’t meant to be as we are polar opposites. We hurt each other, we drain each other mentally”.

Broken Hearted

I know you for ages
Never before you let me down
Since my whole life
I demand you

It’s exciting to see you
It’s exciting to toutch you
It’s exciting to feel you
It’s exciting to kiss you

I can’t hide my feelings of pleasure
It’s exciting to be with you

I Can't Hide

Composer, author, independent music producer.

Wake Up!
