My friends.
Now that I'm back to my lil room studio. I've had a lot of time to work on music. Too bad I was having writers block. Fortunately... I find that in these times, I often make my best work. So out from the ashes... this song was born. It started with me playing with some vocal effects and applying them to an old song I was writing. After a while I had completely transformed my work into what I feel is one of my most impressive songs to date. I'll leave the lyrics open to interpretation, but I feel I should also make a music video to this, just to give the visual I was feeling when writing it.
Anywho... since you're probably listening to it already. You'll likely want the lyrics...
-=Verse 1 =-
Live Strong
Run Free
Die Well
But you cannot escape
Reality
-=Chorus=-
This is where we cried
Today
Tombstone of a
castaway
The sky is set in
Shades of gray
Cause here you lay
Even if I was the key
I could never set you free
The sky is set in shades of gray
Cuz here you lay
-=Verse 2=-
Broken lives
and tainted hearts
I Can't go back
To where it starts
I Can't go home
Can't go home
-=Chorus=-
This is where we cried
Today
tombstone of a
castaway
The sky is set in
Shades of gray
Cuz here you lay
Even if I was the key
I could never set you free
The sky is set in shades of gray
Cuz here you lay
Here you lay
oooOoo...

Simply Amazing!
I love this song! As I am not a musician I would not feel right offering suggestions or critique (if it were possible to find something to critique in this song). What I do want to say is I love your music! Perhaps my favorite piece of yours was "Time (The Milkman_Dan Finale)" which I am very glad was not a finale! But its so hard to pick a favorite of your songs, as almost all of your songs such as "The Broken Requiem" leave me in awe.
My reason for posting today besides telling you how much I enjoy listening to your music is to ask you if you have any CD's available for sale. I'm in college right now and very strapped for money, but listening to your music leaves me longing for more, and would love to purchase a CD from you to not only listen to it but to support the man behind the music.

This is so soothing
This is one heck of a song man. I'm digging it!
There is one thing I really get annoyed about.
at about 1:20 - 1:25 somewhere, a kick is just a bit off and at "...waaas the key" you pronounce 'the key' just a tad too early and it sounds like that part is a bit muddled together...
Only thing bothering me. A mistake that's small and probably just slipped by in the mixing phase. Only reason you get 9/10
5/5 though ;)

This is beautiful
I have little else to say.. Except one thing that irritated me. You did not pronounce the 'y' in reality very well, it's like it's not there. That is my only issue with this entire song.
It is sad, yet peaceful, and the beat makes it sound almost like the 'person' in this song is trying to move on, after some terrible event, during the calm afterwards. Very nice job.

do you want to know my opinion of this song?
this is the best damn song on newgrounds in my opinion you have the most excelent voice on newgrounds. I think you should make more peices with vocals instead of the majority of your works being instrumentals.
plz continue to make songs like this. They make you feel so happy. Yet sad at the same time.
