Another composition based on a medley idea originally started in 2016, and extended in 2020. Part of the same series as 'Bioluminescent Forest' and 'A Winged Being', both of which were compositions taking parts from the initial medley idea currently unnamed (just titled '2016.5.9').

Ending Encounter (2021.3.30)

This song is about the effects of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) on people, and my thoughts on the perpetrators of said ACEs.

Lyrics:
You don’t remember the actions but only reactions to what’s been done 
Almost like you’re done having fun  
Permanent changes and scars covered up by adapting to what you’ve carved 
Now you’re back, like you’ve been starved, instead 

Children are helpless whatever happens to them and they wouldn’t know 
Till they grow old enough to undergo 
The realisation in civilisation, in humiliation, through their education, just what you’ve done 

Now they carry around permanent damage 
Taken advantage of 
Unknown to the subconscious broken self-image, 
Nothing to leverage 
But above all thrive despite living in fright 
Though broken all because of your crime 

No more playing nice 
Till I’ve made you pay the price 
I’m ready for a fight 
Time to make all your wrongs right 

Did you think you could be forgiven so easily? 
Greedily showing up now 
Permanent damages serve as a reminder... 
Your actions were not so minor 

The rest of the world thinks you’re such a high achiever 
I know behind closed doors you’re fake 
Acting like the preacher and not the predator 
Truth is known by your inheritors 
I know what you have done to her 
I know what you have done to us 
Permanent damage can’t be erased 
Permanent scars can’t be hidden 
For I have your crimes now written 
Know what you’ve done is forbidden  
 
Hell might be invented just to be reserved for the likes of you 
Entitled, selfish, heartless, also unscrewed  
Words could only 
Partly describe the over-inflated ego 
Stooping so low, nobody knows, you’d never show 
Below the façade that’s your social standing 
Risk of your hanging, how about stabbing, I could be planning 
 
So no more playing nice 
Till I’ve made you pay your price 
Know that I will see you cry 
Begging me to spare your life 
(and it won’t be in spite) 
No more playing nice 
Hearts frozen solid like ice 
Despite climbing extra heights 
I will fight to get what’s mine 

You don’t remember the actions but only reactions to what’s been done 
Now you know, I don’t hide and run 
Permanent changes and scars covered up by adapting to what you’ve carved 
Now I’m back, the product of what you’ve sowed 
I will get my justice.

Day 3 and song 3 of my 3-day-in-a-row-composition-frenzy.
I wanted a song to start with a B but not Bass, so here's 'Bioluminescent Forest' 😂

Bioluminescent Forest (2020.6.9)

An extended version of Bioluminescent Forest mainly so I can use it as BGM when I'm studying or working.

Bioluminescent Forest Extended Version

The first song I ever wrote on my own back when I was in school - I decided to actually record it and add some other instruments to the original piano after 9 years...
First written in early 2012, recorded and completed in late 2020.
This version has no pitch-tune on the vocals.
