Remember Me (please)

You can find this track also on Youtube where I filmed myself while playing this. https://youtu.be/s5ytA3aeu6w 

I just wanted to try out whether I could do a Boogie. This is the outcome. Hope you like it and it gives you good energy. 

Composition-wise: The left is a consistent 1/8th Boogie base line throughout the piece and typically consisting of a lower chromatic line and an upper constant note (e.g., C0-C1-D0-C1-Eb0-C1-E0-C1). The right hand dances over this with a partly Staccato theme that is loosened up by repeated Syncopes, Delays and advanced notes. The piece starts in a joyous C and modulates over its course to the minor third and ends in the warmer (and for me richer) Eb. 

The track has been recorded on a Roland FP-90.
The Cover art was created with Stable Diffusion which I continue fuddling around with. I think it is already a far jump from my previous „Sheherazades Tale“ Cover art but still not perfect. In particular, I continue to wonder what kind of music might be played with the very peculiar arrangement of white and black keys on the keyboard.

She Had To Leave

Lyrics by Mark Xenophontos 

------------------------

"Look what you've become..."
"Jezebel..."

So conveniently yours
No need to breathe or see
You waltz like royalty  
Red carpet beneath your feet
All bow in adoration

Blink once, it all appears
Twisted fantasies draw near
Your darkest needs now satisfied
While innocence dies inside

You were once so pure and small
Now look what you've become

As your ego infects everything!
As your lies come crashing down!
Killing all that's pure and clean
I won't bow, I won't bow down
Call it spiritual if you want
But I see through your crown
I don't bow to you...
JEZEBEL!

Away from father's eyes
You trade your soul for lies
Keep that body temple clean
While dirty money flows between

Easy cash, the price is paid
Look at the monster that you've made
In whose name do you deceive?
Which god do you serve?

You were once so innocent
Now look what you've become!

As your ego infects everything!
As your lies come crashing down!
Killing all that's pure and clean
I won't bow, I won't bow down
Call it spiritual if you want
But I see through your crown
I don't bow to you...
JEZEBEL!

The innocent pay the price
For your paradise of vice
Every mark upon your skin
Marks the souls you've murdered in

Your ego infects everything!
Your lies come crashing down!
You killed all that's pure and clean
Now face what you've become!
Call it spiritual, call it divine
But this reckoning is mine!
I don't bow to you...
I don't bow to you...
JEZEBEL!

I don't bow...
I don't bow to you!

Jezebel

Devil's Bargain

[Verse 1]
Am I doing enough? I swore I’d save them.
But their hands keep slipping, they don’t even save themselves.
What’s the point of fighting if the scars stay mine?
I stand in the silence, holding the line.

[Pre-Chorus]
You call it easy, you call it fate —
But I’m the one who carries all the weight.

[Chorus]
This is who I am — THIS IS WHO I AM!
You don’t know me, don’t pretend you do.
This is where I stand — THIS IS WHERE I STAND!
You can try, but you don’t know anything about the truth.

[Verse 2]
You burn like sunlight, reckless, free.
Your kindness cuts, it reminds me of her.
I choke on anger, but your voice pulls me back.
I hate it, I need it — that’s the fact.

[Pre-Chorus]
You give it all, I take the fall.
I keep the loss so someone else can stand tall.

[Chorus]
This is who I am — THIS IS WHO I AM!
You don’t know me, don’t pretend you do.
This is where I stand — THIS IS WHERE I STAND!
You can try, but you don’t know anything about the truth.

[Bridge]
Fate’s got a cruel joke — stole the light, left the blame.
If justice walks blind, I’ll be the flame.

[Final Chorus]
This is who I am — THIS IS WHO I AM!
You don’t know me, don’t pretend you do.
This is where I stand — THIS IS WHERE I STAND!
You can try, but you don’t know anything about the truth.

[Outro]
You should be here, not me —
But I remain.
The beat of your heart,
Unwavering.

Better Tomorrow
