Has a very cool 80's vibe/myserty quality to it. Neverending Story and Labyrinth come to mind!

Really love this whole piece; it has a very adventuresome sound to it; a balance of beautiful new places and mystery.

Great transition here; it feels like it is taking us to a new scene in a different place.

CAROUSEL

This is a personification of the transition between Autumn and Winter as a sapphic romance and the only time they can meet is during this transition period.
lyrics
Winter wears a snowy veil
She wears it for display
And it snags upon the branches of the matchstick trees

Autumn dances the dance of joy
She’s hard to be ignored
‘Cause every move she makes tears off a thousand leaves

Ooh, ooh, they go again! Oh, yeah!
Ooh, there they go again! Again! Again!
Ooh, they reach again!
Ooh, they want to be in one another’s company

One is pale, cold to the touch
The other a golden brown
But I’ll tell you, their mischief is a beautiful thing
When there’s frost upon the fallen leaves
When you start to feel a little chill in the breeze
It’s the time for the lovers to meet

Ooh, ooh, they go again! Oh, yeah!
Ooh, there they go again! Again! Again!
Ooh, they reach again!
Ooh, they reach again! Again! Again!
Ooh, they want to be in one another’s company

Now it’s time to say goodbye
But not without a dance
Winter says I’ll think of you when creatures lie close for warmth
Autumn says I’ll think of you when they shiver in the cold
So spin me around in a snowdrift pirouette
A frozen kiss makes a perfect parting gift
Let’s make this goodbye last until we must part

The Romance of Autumn and Winter

This is a song I wrote when I had a lot of turbulent emotions within myself and I needed to get them out in a creative way to process them so I came up with the piano riff you hear in the song, put a beat over it and then rapped some lyrics over it and sang a chorus. Some of the lyrics were changed since the first version but the majority of them are still the same as when I first rapped and sang them in the moment.
lyrics
In chaos there is beauty and chaos lives in me
When I get close to the sun I melt into the sea
In chaos there is beauty and chaos lives in me
An identity like a hurricane in a desert plane of green
In chaos there is beauty and chaos lives in me
When I get close to someone it’s clear and plain to see

I’m lost in this place, the shadows I face come tenderly
Disassociation from the constant contemplation
I’ve been emptied
But I’m relieved
To feel nothing after all the chaos within me

In chaos there is beauty and chaos lives in me
Stuck inside a rotting hide of rage anxiety
In chaos there is beauty and chaos lives in me
Switching from one state to the next in constant agony
In chaos there is beauty and chaos lives in me
When I get close to someone it’s clear and plain to see

I’m lost in this place, the shadows I face come tenderly
Disassociation from the constant contemplation
I’ve been emptied
But I’m relieved
To feel nothing after all the chaos within me
Within me
Within me

So much chaos
So much chaos
I am chaos
