Fleeting

asian [p. tom bonney]

He drifted into my life
Eyes unreadable
Offered comfort
Irresistible and fleeting
Words like whispers
Carved stories in air
Told me I was chosen
But who’s really there?

Every glance
A tether unseen
Every touch
A cryptic scene
Made me feel like the lone flame
The truth layered in the shadow’s name

He’s an artist of illusion
A phantom veil
Threads promises woven
Destined to fail
Draws you in lets you breathe
Only to vanish when you start to believe

His laughter
A fleeting echo
In a hollow night
Played on loop 
Shifting dark to light
He turned silence 
Into something sweet
But the words 
Were never complete

Built me up
Piece by piece
Let me dream
Just to cease 
Left me searching
Left me frayed 
In the wake of trust decay

He’s an artist of illusion
A phantom veil
Threads promises woven
Destined to fail
Draws you in lets you breathe
Only to vanish when you start to believe

The mirage cracks
The mask disbands 
Empty echoes
Shifting sands 
I trace back the symbols
The ploy
A cycle repeated
The fragile decoy

He’s an artist of illusion
A phantom veil
Threads promises woven
Destined to fail
Draws you in lets you breathe
Only to vanish when you start to believe

So here’s to the ones caught in a snare
Who learned too late what’s truly there
Know these moments don’t define
Fractured hearts realign

Song Description:

"Fortnite Victory Royale, Dad Never Came Home" is a raw blend of emo pop-punk energy and the unmistakable thrill of a Fortnite victory. The song tells the story of a lonely gamer who finds solace in the digital world, only to be met with the harsh reality of an absent father and an empty home. It’s a track that combines the high-energy rush of winning a #1 Victory Royale with the emotional vulnerability of waiting for a father who’s never there.

In the first verse, the narrator takes us on a journey through the competitive, fast-paced world of Fortnite. The Battle Bus drops in, and the adrenaline kicks in as the player takes down opponents, builds structures, and feels the rush of a near victory. The victorious moment of earning that elusive "Victory Royale" is fleeting but powerful — a perfect digital win in a world where things often feel out of control. But as the narrator jumps off the screen, expecting celebration and connection, reality hits.

The second verse brings us back to the silence of an empty home. The victory feels hollow because, despite the triumph in the game, the narrator is left facing the same cold, empty kitchen. The father, who promised to return with milk, is nowhere to be found. The house feels colder and emptier than the virtual world, and the narrator is left wondering if the next moment will bring the father home — or if they’ll always be waiting for something that may never come. The kitchen, devoid of life, reflects the hollow emptiness that the narrator feels deep down. It’s not just the absence of milk; it’s the absence of love, connection, and hope.

The song’s chorus captures this struggle: The victory feels like a dream, but the world outside the screen is harsh, cold, and unforgiving. The narrator is caught between the digital success of Fortnite and the crushing reality of loneliness, where no one is around to share the win with. The emptiness in the home mirrors the emptiness within the heart.

In the bridge, the song shifts toward reflection, as the narrator realizes that the game, no matter how thrilling, can never fill the void left by an absent parent. The loop of waiting, hoping, and never seeing the father return has become a painful cycle, one that the narrator can't escape. The game might offer temporary distraction, but when the screen fades, reality sets in again.

The outro leaves us with a sense of lingering hope. The narrator’s #1 Victory Royale may be a trophy in the game, but in real life, they’re still waiting for the father to come back, to fill the space that’s been left empty for too long. The kitchen’s emptiness is a symbol of this ongoing longing, and the narrator's heart, though full of achievement in the game, still yearns for something much more meaningful. They hold on to the hope that, one day, the father will return and make everything feel whole again.

This song is for anyone who has found comfort in the digital world when real life felt too hard. It's for those who understand the loneliness of waiting for something that may never come, and for those who have ever found victory in a game, only to realize that it's not enough to heal the wounds of a broken heart.

"Fortnite Victory Royale, Dad Never Came Home" is a powerful anthem of emotional vulnerability, combining the catharsis of pop-punk with the universal experience of longing, loss, and the search for connection. It’s a story of finding victory in a world of digital battles while struggling to win the real fight for love and belonging. Whether you're a gamer, a pop-punk fan, or someone who's ever felt like the world’s passing you by, this song speaks to the heart of that shared experience.

Stalker VA is a project of composer Dmytro Bezruchko (Kyiv, Ukraine). He creates ambient electroacoustic soundscapes through synthesis and sound design, incorporating processed and transformed sound objects, field recordings, unconventional use of instruments. The main focus is on sounds and timbres, their unique tonal characteristics, which are treated as colours used to “paint” sonic textures and construct atmospheric narratives. 

These musical ‘journeys’ often tend to resemble dreams, in which sleepers travel through worlds, reconstructed from different memories and images, where space and time behave unusually. Stalker VA explores the nature of mind and consciousness, various perceptual phenomena through sound experiences, connection between sound and memories, sensations and cognition.

When I was six years old, my dad asked what I wanted for my birthday. I said, “A harp, Daddy… please!” He came back with a second-hand acoustic guitar, two strings short of a full set. It wasn’t quite what I asked for but it was love at first strum. I still remember my early lessons, proudly plucking away with four strings, utterly enchanted by the noise I could make (much to my parents’ dismay!).

That’s where it all began, a lifelong love affair with sound. Over the years, I picked up more instruments, found my voice, and embraced singing as a natural extension of the noise-making I never quite grew out of. I had some classical training in both piano and singing. though I’ll admit, I never stuck with it long enough to be a true virtuoso. I also became obsessed with Stars in Their Eyes, auditioning as Patsy Cline (cringe!).

My first original song was written for a variety show while I was studying performing arts. It wasn't a masterpiece, but it was mine and a fun song which made the audience laugh. The start of something I didn’t even realise I was meant to do. It wasn’t until a lecturer told me, “You have to write songs,” that I started taking it seriously.

Since then, I’ve had a few proud moments with local radio features, making the final of the UK Open Mic competition and one terrifying one: performing at the O2. (Let’s just say my stage fright prefers my home studio.) These days, you’ll most likely find me lost in that little creative haven, surrounded by instruments, half-finished songs, and cups of tea gone cold.

I may not have a harp, but I do have music and that’s more than enough.

Grateful beyond words for everyone who listens, likes, comments, and reposts my music. You’re the real MVPs who keep me going!

I fuse words with sound, crafting immersive, AI-powered soundscapes where poetry doesn’t just speak—it sings, hums, and echoes. Inspired by nature, dreams, and the quiet moments in between, my tracks blur the line between verse and melody, emotion and experience.

Every beat, every word, every breath in my music tells a story. Hit play, and let’s feel something together.
