Wrote a song based on a royalty au SBI fanfic called Passerine! It’s very elegantly written by Thcscus on ao3 and I can only hope that I did it justice. Go give it a read if you haven’t already!
Thank you as always for the support, and hope you have a wonderful day <3

Lyrics:

When the sun sheds its golden hues
And the rows of yellow roses are in bloom
Its on mornings like these that I feel most at ease 
No there’s not a place that I’d rather be

For the pollen and warmth in the air
And the colours in my brother’s braided hair
And the faraway sound of the footsteps that bound,
Life has never been better than now

Feel my heart like a passerine fly
Catch my breath as I look to the sky
Calm the thoughts that have troubled my mind
Just for a moment, maybe things will be fine

For the first time in years, so it seems
You appear like an ethereal dream 
Now I’m drawn to your name like a moth set aflame
and forgiving the ghosts that remain

There you are with your arms open wide
Free my breath as I look to the sky
Just this once I’ll set worry aside
If for a moment, it’ll mean that everything’s fine
For in this little moment, life is alright

For a moment // Original song based on Passerine

a letter of wistful foreboding from a researcher who has seen and learned more than they should have

dear friend i write to you swiftly
with scarlet ink and a woe
my note will be fleeting
but promise while reading
to hang on to every word

all the days are forgetting
they told me i was alone
but leafing through pages
does nothing for aged
fingers that work to the bone

through the archway
where the bookspines fold
they will show you the way

this study cramped and musty
a coffin to call my abode
each cold glance i've earned
passing through me i've learned
not to trust those that make it a home

i met a ghost that tended a garden
they showed me their most prized marrow
tendons and teeth
amongst pale meadowsweet
seeds of doubt are beginning to grow

through the archway
footprints cremated to smoke
they will show you the way

Lyrics:

Sparks fly 
Every time I
Identify a species I have
Hitherto never 
Seen in the field 
Seen in the feather 
Sparkbird 
Destiny drew us together 
Every smile line on my face 
Can be retraced 
Down to the split second 
Down to the split place 

Is it magical thinking 
Or is it magical realism 
Or is it neither here nor there? 
Every time I check my wrist 
It's another brand new freckle 
Past another brand new hair 
I'm growing up, up, up 
Against my will, will 
Will you finally resurrect 
The time I've killed? 
Will you finally resurrect 
The time I've killed, killed, killed? 

Sparks fly 
Every time I visit this park 
I envision the phantom 
Of a giddy little cartoon me 
Jittering on the electrifying
Cusp of discovery 
Before and after the storm 
All I wanted was to be seen
And to see

Some signs of a world still
Turning, turning, turning 
Some signs of a world still
Forming, forming, forming 
Rebirth of a dream still
Burning, burning, burning

Is it magical thinking 
Or is it magical realism 
Or is it neither here nor there? 
Every time I check my wrist 
It's another brand new freckle 
Past another brand new hair 
I'm growing up, up, up 
Against my will, will 
Will you finally resurrect 
The time I've killed? 
Will you finally resurrect 
The time I've killed, killed, killed?

Passing Papers- Egg

hey guys thank u for all the love on cat serenade! i hope u will enjoy this new tune just as much :] 

lyrics:

i wonder if you'll leave me behind someday
among the wildflowers and the lilies sleeping by the way
but it's okay
because i would do anything for you

the sunlight dances beyond the yard
and painted your eyes in green
but you're fixated on the candytufts
and you hadn't the time for me

i wonder if you'll leave me behind someday 
among the wildflowers and the lilies sleeping by the way
but it's okay
because i would do anything for you

i washed my hair til it trickled down the drain
as the lavender filled the air
the scent might drive me half insane
but maybe you'll see me then

i wonder if you'll leave me behind someday
among the wildflowers and the lilies sleeping by the way
but it's okay
because i would do anything for you

the rhododendrons crimson flame
set fire to the sleepy air
and lit the early morning haze
that glistened in your tangled hair

the thorns grew tighter everyday
round your ankles dripping red
you placed a crown of marigolds on my head
and then you said
as you tried to pull your bloody hands away

i'm never gonna leave you behind someday
in the daisies and the bluebells weeping by the way
because i love you, and i would do anything
i would do anything, anything at all

i wonder when you left me behind that day
asleep beneath the willow withering away
if you were okay
because i would do anything for you

i would do anything

a jazzy waltz about the dead meeting the living in a celebratory festival for one night on the 31st of october

lyrics:

put down my backpack and take off my shoes
the journey was good but your knees are still bruised
oyster pearl eyes and cobwebs for hair
you're a shadow with nobody there

and the harvest moon, shimmering, melted in two
and poured silver rain into the stream
where i crossed on the bridge made of stars gently smiling
as the universe loosened its seams

oh the bells sing, for the 31st night they ring
leading the way
through cobbled street paths everwinding
to the hallows eve masquerade

the lamplights they flicker and twinkle with glee
pink bunting swayed in the sigh of the sea
you found your way lit by small paper lanterns
that fluttered their way back to me

through the market place, buzzing with spectres and ghouls
sipping sweet apple wine making merry
you remembered my face, gave an empty embrace
while we lingered away in a dream

oh the night grieves, as we dance in the falling leaves
spinning away
on our little paved roads intertwining
at the hallows eve masquerade 

-instrumental-

as the day breaks and i burst into sunshine rays
a dazzling blaze
don't weep like the sky cause you'll find me
at the hallows eve masquerade

and i'll be the creak in your door
to bid you a hallows day

hallows eve masquerade
