Hola Vibes fam!☺ I'm not especially chatty right now so I'll just give a quick backstory of the process behind my entry this week.🙃 https://youtu.be/oPFNQxSwEho?feature=shared
This vibes week was a particularly busy one for me, so it was hard finding time to do a song. When I did find time, my voice wouldn't agree with my song choices or my mind would be overly critical of how the results sounded (I'm sure you can relate if you're a singer).🥂 The funny thing is how I ended up doing the randomest song. I love Billie Eilish but I don't listen to her much (@babymoyin is probably going to be a tad bit disappointed by that😅). The piano instrumental popped up on my YouTube feed and it was easy and lovely to sing along to..even though I'd never really listened to it or scored it before. It also felt like a release for the things I was feeling at the time..and so here we are.🙃
Everything I wanted by Billie Eilish is a song about her experience with depression. She had a dream where she committed suicide, hence, the "I had a dream..I got everything I wanted". She also talks about how she found her relationship with her brother (who she confided in about the dream) in lines like, "when I wake up, I see you with me" and "as long as I'm here, no one can hurt you" It's a really beautiful song with a haunting backstory and however random, I'm glad I did it.💜 I said I wasn't chatty but I think I typed a lot already😅
I hope you enjoy listening and I look forward to reading your thoughts after.☺ Thank you if you read this far. Till next time, stay vibing!🌻
Lyrics
I had a dream I got everything I wanted Not what you'd think And if I'm being honest It might've been a nightmare To anyone who might care Thought I could fly (fly) So I stepped off the Golden, mm Nobody cried (cried, cried, cried, cried) Nobody even noticed I saw them standing right there Kinda thought they might care (might care, might care) I had a dream I got everything I wanted But when I wake up, I see You with me And you say, "As long as I'm here No one can hurt you Don't wanna lie here But you can learn to If I could change The way that you see yourself You wouldn't wonder why you're here They don't deserve you" I tried to scream But my head was underwater They called me weak Like I'm not just somebody's daughter Coulda been a nightmare But it felt like they were right there And it feels like yesterday was a year ago But I don't wanna let anybody know 'Cause everybody wants something from me now And I don't wanna let 'em down I had a dream I got everything I wanted But when I wake up, I see You with me And you say, "As long as I'm here No one can hurt you Don't wanna lie here But you can learn to If I could change The way that you see yourself You wouldn't wonder why you're here They don't deserve you" If I knew it all then would I do it again? Would I do it again? If they knew what they said would go straight to my head What would they say instead? If I knew it all then would I do it again? Would I do it again? If they knew what they said would go straight to my head What would they say instead?
