The manga is 18+ , so be careful. It's "Futari wa Tomodachi" by Ryoumoto Hatsumi.

Her smile hasn't changed (manga OST)

(By the way, if someone of you wants only last 90-second part to set as his/her ringtone, or maybe the song without violin, or just the file with the rhythm guitars – text me and I can generate the mp3-file for you. )

Most of the rhythm guitars and every solo guitar recorded my buddy, who wanted to stay anonymous. Most of the solos he improvised within the recording session.

The rest of the musical composition were developed and recorded by me.



Intro:
Pace in between the greenish lines
Confine every step to pines 

Verse:
Anguish fades away at the crack of dawn 

Vain despair shall be withdrawn
Lost in mortal moan 
Light of day break through
 Crowded pines, vast blue 

Nearby river noises flow 
trail of mellow wine 
Implies I might drown 
but would I, be fine 

Interlude 2:
Lone fast flowing current
In the promise I live 
Though I feel so distant 
Dull ache of feeling restive 
Yet steady going forward 
Earn a raison d'etre
Try to cage a blackbird 
Resolve lost in a medley 

Verse 2:
I must leave
This frozen path
Wish... Faith... Hope deserve grieve 
For voidness I implore
And I cannot hope for 

It's time to crumble 
Will i walk through this weepy loam 
Whose heart accomplished
The hate I feel within my soul we perish 

Outro:
Forget your faith then stride a dead end street (neglect to breathe)
The forest dusk is falling rapidly (it's memory)

 False conviction grows into the light of truth 
I may remember life was crystal clear 
When you were still here 
Eternal winter, cold and starlit nights 
Are left of you 
Concede this lone night takes what’s left of me 
I cannot drown near
Abandoned hope filled knifes, I disappear
If I ought to stay here

Recall the freedom, life's an open field
Bonds are long gone today
Late nimble feet enthrall a nightingale
I'm on my way
There is a hope left bathe in golden light
I feel like cryin’
There is a make trees bathe in golden light
I open my eyes

This is not exacly my genre, but this time I liked to experiment a little bit. If someone likes to have an instrumental version or for example just guitar tracks, please contact me (here or in Skype) and I will send you the files. If you have some critics, you’re welcome to write it in the comments or in personal massage. 
I am very gratefull to Catriona and Adrians Mierpilsonis, because thay continuously helped me with the production advices as well. And other buddies as well gave me some important critics and motivations – it was very nice of you!


Lyrics

Verse: 
Let's start this day I beg myself, to keep on going on this quest. 
There are so many moments in my past, that I cannot let go, by 
My memories fading in the day, but my desire going - on and on. 
And I don’t know - Why? - I just don’t know. 

I’m trying - to catch - this dream – again, 
I can’t let go-ohhh-ohhh. 

Chorus: 
Need to prove myself, I need to prove myself 
That I’m worth - more, 
That’s why 
I’m holding on to this ambition. 

But fading time, and all the past, I’m like the rest? No, no! 
It’s just not enough, and I cannot return now. 

Verse: 
Sometimes I hate myself, and turn myself away from you, 
Cause’ I don’t want you in my way – anymoooore. 

Do you know, that feeling, when the emptiness turns into fate? 
You become obsessed, but in the end 

Is it only a determination? --- And do I need it 
in the end? --- Well, yes. 

Chorus: 
That’s what I want, and fear is flirting with my brain, but no, 
I won’t give in, and I will try again to master my objective, 
Cause’ I believe in all I want, and all I need, that’s the only reason for my happiness. 

I will find my way 

To turn this dream - into - reality, cause’ I know, what I want now, 
I see it there. (Is it there?) 
And I will grab it, I will use it, and hold to it - but not abuse it, 
I will prove myself, (that in the end) 

My purpose - is what I chose. 
And I - didn’t loose. 
I didn’t lose!

Ambition [final version]

Bass guitar played (recorded) by Marcel Bangert (Mindreaper, Daedric) https://www.facebook.com/marcel.bangert.7?fref=pb&hc_location=friends_tab&pnref=friends.all

Lyrics I took from the wedding song of Livonians (or Livs), what all the Latvian country knows as a folkssong. (I took the information from Wikipedia, and it seems plausible. ) In Latvian the song name is written "Pūt Vējiņi".

Pūt vējiņi, dzen laiviņu,
Aizdzen mani Kurzemē.
Kurzemniece man solīja
Sav’ meitiņ mālējiņ.

Solīt sola, bet nedeva.
Teic man lielu dzērājiņ.
Pūt vējiņi, dzen laiviņu,
Aizdzen mani Kurzemē.

Put Vejini [final]

While I was reeding the last pages of the manga to my favourite anime, I imagined, that may be the soundtrack exactly for this ending scene! 
Right now it is my favourite creation of me.

By the way, the anime is called "Puella Magi Madoka Magica"
or in japanese "Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica".

Patriotisms [FINAL]

I uploaded the final version before. But some small mistakes I wanted to correct so much... so here is the upgraded version.

This song is made not only by me. Very graet help was from Adrians Mierpilsonis, who made song lyrics. Here is his page www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1…tion=friends_tab
Also most of the rhythm guitars and every solo guitar recorded my buddy, who wanted to stay anonymous. And my buddy borrowed his bass guitar, but this time I recorded it myself (because this time the parts were not so difficult).
I will also upload an instrumental (karaoke) versions and the opposite – a version without background music and only vocals (a capella).

Lyrics:

[Intro]
Ageless question why… is everything so sad?
Considering my life, and all the choices… I have never made.
And do I need sommme---thing? Or maybe everything.
Still going in the same direction, just to know my future was so real

Will I be strong? Will I go on, with you?
My years fade away,   with no senseless promises.
Am I waiting for fortune, waiting for loneliness.
Despite sweet talking, not all is meant to be forever good.

[Verse]
Precision gone so far, it will be better not to think.
Reminding all that’s done, and all that I have not begun, not yet.
Understanding now, why my soul is breaking free.
In kindless way my dream is assassinating me.

[Chorus]
Solvation of my broken dreams,
Essential so, meaningless my hope.
Betraying fate of my success and
I am trying, trying to be satisfied.
Living with all the changes in my heart.

[Interlude]
And forever obsessed
With completing my task…
It means so much to me,
Proceeding endlessly.
Does it really matter?
Can you even change your destiny?
All the misleading connections
That were somehow never meant to be
Progression of my lust
Is granting me with joy
And I will succeed this time
Without fear i'm going to be me

[Outro with an exciting solo]

Senseless Promises [final]

Rhythm guitars recorded by me and some parts by Michael S.

Lead guitar: my buddy, who wants to stay anonym (he helped me already in "e-v-a" and "Senseless Promises")

But the bass guitar, western guitars and midi violins recorded I myself. All the vocals too. Mixing and mastering was done by me.

LYRICS
Many, many years ago
in order to gain certain expierences
some young man came to this town

Besides the desired abilities
Over the years he has gained soulmates as well
And that makes him proud

Soon he has to leave
in order to evolve himself furthermore

The unknown future terrifies him a lot
But - in order to reach the castle of his dreams
He will have to let go...

Let go of all the fears,
Let go of all the friends,
Let go of all the cherished memories...

My purpose accomplished here gratefully for you today
Hopefully the wisdom you left in here will stay with me.
But tomorrow comes, I will leave anyway
Because I feel this is my destiny.

Giving you false hopes is tearing me apart
But I would feel worse if I gave in to my anxiety.

Castle [final]

Lyrics: ——————————————————————————————————————————

I have no regrets my friend though I feel your pain
It’s time for us to part our ways
I have no regrets, I did
My every last choice to think
You gave me hope and broke it down somehow.

The good times we shared, my friend...
I do remember, when
We were together, so happy.
Why do we feel the pain?

Ethereal dream - I see it now!
Each and every day I live my way!
I don’t know how make my dream come true
Without giving up on you, my friend.

So with no regrets I say, thank you
For the times we had.
