Where Shadows Rest

I woke up early this morning. During this time of year is it mostly dark and we only get a few hours of daylight. Daytime is usually grey, either snowing or just grey. But days like today, when the sun shines and there are no clouds do it instead become magical, a bit more cold, today it was around -20. The cold weather makes the trees get all frozen and the sky skifts to all kind of opalescent colors. I witnessed this today with my cup of coffee. I had to try and capture this feeling.

Opalescent Dawn

Hesitation Waltz
Poem and Music by Jennifer L. Jones

The dance of life... 
We hesitate, we miss a beat, 
We try to keep up and step on toes, 
Turning, twisting, going forward, 
Three steps backwards,
Repeating old habits, while learning new.  
How did we do it!
I'm here, 
You're here,
We must have done something right!

Hesitation Waltz

This is just a short sample of a blending test of the cool sounds on the mellotron instrument I use in GarageBand. If you’re not familiar with how a real mellotron works, it’s worth checking it out! Here's a very informative demo:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByD8gH7kYxs

The acoustic guitar is played using a VST guitar on keyboard.
The mellotron sounds are:
  - flute / strings blend
  - cello / strings blend
  - male / female choir blend
  - boys / female choir blend

Here’s a crazy song of mine where I’m using the mellotron is a really ominous chorus (Cut 2: "The Chase"):

🔻 Song Insight

"Forever Fall" by 4Me2BeFree is a haunting acoustic-alt ballad trapped between dream and memory, reaching for a self just out of reach. Told through raw vocals and evocative imagery, the track explores the surreal terrain of inner searching—where time loops, identity blurs, and the weight of emotional residue lingers like mist. This isn’t a nightmare—it’s a dream searching for meaning, a desperate attempt to reconnect with a piece of the soul long forgotten: the inner child.

With stripped-back guitars and cinematic builds, "Forever Fall" pulls listeners into a suspended moment between letting go and holding on. Every line unravels a story of emotional claustrophobia—trapped not by fear, but by a version of reality too fogged to navigate. It’s a soundtrack for those who’ve felt the ache of isolation even within their own mind.

🔻 Lyrics

[Verse 1]Binding darkness, sleep takes holdLike river flow—it’s you taking meI have nowhere I can go

[Verse 2]Looping into night, under slumberDarkness breeds—Take me to your crownI can’t be found

[Bridge]Waking from shafts of light igniteStriking shadows explode brightAn abstract creation of a tattered brain

[Verse 3]Try to explain, can’t let goSomething inside keeping me tameIn pain I can’t sustain—It’s a fraction of time

[Chorus]Focus my mind, lock soul in placeI can see—have to let goHeavy eyes fall like bombsFlashes of image now goneIn darkness you hideDeep on the other side

[Verse 4]I walk for years dreamingStuck in reality I can’t fearBashing walls—let the heavens fallWake me from my forever fallThis place of nothingnessA steel trap I possess

[Bridge]I rip at my chestPull for my last breathPurging all I had left

[Outro]Pitch black—nothingA silent dead seaAn eruption of sightForced out with mightShafts of light burning the skyWhere I was to go

🔻 Personal Reflection

This song is a mirror. One I didn’t expect to hold so long.

"Forever Fall" came from a place I didn’t fully understand until I heard it back. I thought I was writing about nightmares—about being chased or paralyzed in sleep—but the truth is... this was a dream. A long one. A fogged-in, looping space where I was endlessly searching for someone I’d lost: myself.

Or more specifically, the version of me that never got to heal.

That kid who still waited somewhere behind all the trauma, the masks, the coping. That’s who this track is reaching for. And the field in the fog? That’s not fear—that’s hope breaking through, even if it never fully lands. I wrote this while feeling disconnected, stuck between clarity and collapse. But singing it felt like pulling the thread back to something real.

There’s a kind of surrender in this song, but also resilience. You might hear both. Or neither. That’s what I love about it.

🔻 4Me2BeFree

For 4Me2BeFree, music is more than melody—it’s emotional truth in cinematic form. Every track aims to capture the quiet chaos we live through and rarely speak out loud. "Forever Fall" continues that mission: fusing poetic vulnerability with haunting soundscapes. It belongs to a larger vision—one where pain isn’t hidden but transformed into something powerful, something that breathes.

This isn’t just a song—it’s a feeling you didn’t know you remembered.

🎧 "I'm Not Done" – by 4Me2BeFree
🔻 Song Insight
“I'm Not Done” is a slow-burning breakup anthem wrapped in grit, truth, and emotional rebellion. It’s the unraveling of a luxury-wrapped lie—the kind of relationship that looked perfect from the outside, but inside, was transactional, manipulative, and hollow. The lyrics unfold like a cinematic confession, exposing the moment when love stopped being love and became leverage.

Over melancholic guitars and deep, driving drums, the narrator reclaims their power with brutal honesty: "I sold the ring for jack / just enough to buy me back." What begins as quiet heartbreak swells into a full-throated declaration of survival. It’s not just about the betrayal—it’s about what you're willing to walk away from to save yourself.

This is a song for anyone who’s ever been loved conditionally, bought off with gifts, or made to feel like their pain was part of a deal. It’s a toast to letting go, reclaiming dignity, and saying, "I’m not done—even if we are."

🔻 Lyrics
[Intro],[Solo]
All I wanted was you
But you played me like a cheap move
Love wrapped in diamonds, a disguise
Now I’m a price
And you're too high

[Verse 1],[Solo]
You set the scene like a film
The beach, The Ritz, the ring
Said “forever” with a smirk
But I could feel the strings
You wanted control, not love
Just someone you could keep
Your love was just a deal
And I’m not that cheap
I’m not for sale

[Pre-Chorus],[Solo]
Dropped the cash
Made a vow
Just to throw it in my face somehow

[Chorus],[Solo]
I sold the ring for jack
Just enough to buy me back
You called it love, but it was a trap
At least I can toast to that
You can’t buy me to stay
It was a whore you wanted anyway

[Verse 2],[Solo]
Tropical skies, fake paradise
Dinner for two under broken light
You said it was for us
But I saw it in your eyes
This wasn’t a gift
It was leverage in disguise

[Pre-Chorus]
Said you'd change
Said you cared
But the cost was more than I could bear

[Chorus]
I sold the ring for jack
Just enough to buy me back
You called it love, but it was a trap
At least I can toast to that
You can’t buy me to stay
It was a whore you wanted anyway

[Bridge],[Spoken or Whispered]
You can buy a dog
Train it to obey
But I’m not your BITCH
And I don’t play
You said I had no choice
You said I owed you that day
But love isn’t debt
And I never said I'd stay

[Final Chorus],[Solo]
I sold the ring for jack
Just enough to buy me back
You called it love, but it was a trap
At least I can toast to that
You can’t buy me to stay
It was a whore you wanted anyway

[Refrain]
You can’t buy me
It was a whore you wanted
You called it love
It was a trap

[Outro:Extended]
Now you wear the shame
And I keep the peace
You were never the one
Just the receipt

🔻 Personal Reflection
This song didn’t come from a writing session. It came from a real moment, sitting alone with a glass of Jack in my hand and the emotional receipt of everything I had just walked away from. The beach, the ring, the money—it was all theater. But when I looked at the silence that followed, I realized: None of it was real. Only my pain was.

I wrote this track as a way of unfreezing the truth—because when someone wraps their control in “love,” you start to question your own worth. But this song helped me remember: I was never for sale. No matter how shiny the gesture or extravagant the apology, if love has a price, it isn’t love.

Selling the ring wasn’t petty—it was liberation. And that glass of Jack? That was my toast to the part of me that survived. Because I’m not done.

🔻 Song Insight – "Sun Soaked" by 4Me2BeFree
“Sun Soaked” captures the golden glow of a perfect summer day — not just the weather, but the warmth between two people who finally stopped running and chose to live in love. It’s a track that radiates with carefree affection, laughter on a river, and hearts that found safety in each other.

But behind the charm is something more layered — the quiet acknowledgment that these moments don’t just happen. They’re chosen. Fought for. The song reflects on a time when love could’ve slipped away, but didn’t — when someone made the decision not to let happiness pass them by again.

Every line glides like sunlight over skin — nostalgic, giddy, and alive. Whether you’ve lived this moment, lost it, or long for it, “Sun Soaked” feels like a memory you didn’t know you missed until now.

🔻 Lyrics
[Intro]
Mmm, yeah...
[softly]
Mmm, yeah...

[Verse 1]
River soaking in time
Rafting, laughing, you're by my side
Lazy days drift, hearts collide
Floating along, just you and I

[Chorus]
I knew it then — your eyes, that smile
The kind of love that stays a while
You thought I was dreaming, maybe high
But I planned this life under open sky

[Verse 2]
You thought I was joking, maybe smoking
Token thoughts from days unspoken
But I saw us here, way back when
And swore I wouldn’t miss my chance again

[Chorus]
It’s this kind of life you shouldn't pass
Sun on our skin, toes in the grass
I'm not gonna lie — this is bliss
Don’t let it go, don’t miss this kiss

[Bridge]
So give it a go, give it a try
Love wild, love true, don't question why
Floating on hope in the summer sky
We gave this life a try — you and I

[Chorus]
It’s this kind of life you shouldn't pass
Sun on our skin, toes in the grass
I'm not gonna lie — this is bliss
Don’t let it go, don’t miss this kiss

[Outro]
Yeah…
This is the way love feels alive.

🔻 Personal Reflection
This one came from a rare place — not pain, but peace.

Sun Soaked was born on a quiet day, floating down a river with someone who made everything feel easy. There was no fight, no past tension — just the joy of being right where I was. That’s a feeling I had spent years chasing and, more honestly, years sabotaging.

I wanted this song to be a reminder — to myself and anyone listening — that love doesn’t always arrive with fireworks. Sometimes, it shows up in the way someone laughs beside you. In how they hold your hand when you're not asking for anything. I’ve missed too many chances before. This time, I didn’t.

And if you’re reading this, wondering if it’s too late — it’s not. Float toward what’s real. Even if it scares you.

🔻 4Me2BeFree
For 4Me2BeFree, Sun Soaked is a bright chapter in a catalog often filled with shadows. It’s not a departure — it’s a moment of light peeking through the same lens of introspection and honesty. The project is about storytelling, transformation, and raw truth, whether that truth breaks you down or builds you up.

This song is a celebration of presence — of finally being in the right place with the right heart. It's for anyone who’s fought hard to be free and finally found someone worth slowing down for.

🔻 Song Insight

Title: To Be Alive
Sometimes a song doesn’t just come from life—it arrives out of the haunted territory between dreams and waking. “To Be Alive” was born from the echo of a night terror that didn’t leave a memory, but left its mark on my soul. It’s a confession from the edge of survival, the struggle to own the only self I have left, and a message for anyone who’s been trapped by pain they can’t put into words. The song’s layers—raspy vocals, shifting tempos, and atmospheric instrumentation—mirror the push and pull of trauma and hope. This is what it sounds like when your own mind is both the battleground and the sanctuary.

🔻 Lyrics
[Intro]
I’m tired of this skin
the shit in my head
trapped on the inside
just want to hide

[Verse 1]
Screams, nightly echoes cry
falling from my walls
I want to survive
can’t breathe, awaken by lies

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted change to save me
rearrange dreams
I build a will, 
I'll try, 
knowing I'm alive

[Chorus]
You don’t get these parts
can’t break what’s inside
I own this life,
my path I wear with pride
I will survive, I will live

[Verse 2]
Crime, it’s time that decays
mangled mind that strays
rotten thoughts in brine
blood drains as I fade

[Verse 3]
I’m yelling at this silence on the inside
stones I carried alone
I paid the price, I atoned
looking for a home

[Bridge]
Broken, with no repair in sight
outdated—an empty fight
parts of me slip by, fading,
I had to see what was right

[Chorus]
You don’t get these parts
can’t break what’s inside
I own this life,
my path I wear with pride
I will survive, I will live

[Breakdown / Outro]
Damned if I stay in this place
to hell with all your empty grace
without hope, I fight to grow
you can take what’s owed
but not the part that makes me free
I own my life, I own my path
I will survive, I will live
just to be alive

🔻 Personal Reflection

This song came from a night of dreams that woke me with my own screams—a place I don’t need to remember to know what it’s about. I’m grateful I forget those dreams, because my waking reality has been enough. I hurt for the version of me that still lives them every night, fighting alone. I wouldn’t wish what I’ve gone through on anyone, and this song is how I speak to that space that still haunts me long after the death of my relationship.

🔻 4Me2BeFree

At 4Me2BeFree, every song is an act of cinematic truth-telling. “To Be Alive” turns personal struggle into shared experience, using layered soundscapes and honest lyrics to create something that resonates beyond words. This is our mission: to transform pain into power and isolation into connection, so no one feels alone with what haunts them.

To Be Alive

I wrote this one with inspiration from Taylor Swifts blank space and Love story to create a Love story song.

A blank space love story

ゲゲゲの鬼太郎_Gegege no Kitaro

"If it didn’t matter, it wouldn’t hurt. Pain is the gift of knowing you’re alive."

4Me2BeFree is more than music—it’s my story, my scars, and my survival. Every song is a piece of me, a raw melody of love, heartbreak, and resilience. I blend AI-generated vocals and instruments with real emotions, turning my experiences—especially from an LGBTQ+ perspective—into something that speaks to anyone who's ever felt lost, broken, or just searching for something real.

Breakup songs? Yeah, they hit different. Music carries us through the worst of it, and every generation finds their own anthems of love, loss, and getting back up. Heartache doesn’t care about age, gender, or where you come from—music connects us all.

I make music because I’ve been there. The pain, the anger, the hope—it's all in these songs. If something here hits home for you, let it. If you feel something, let me know. That’s the connection that keeps this alive.
