Hey, I've decided to release all the other songs from my album onto Newgrounds. Some of you may recognize some riffs in these tunes as riffs in some of my 8-bit work - infact, I wrote these, and then reworked parts of them into chiptune down the line. So while the 8-bit versions were published first, you could consider some of these songs the "Original Version" of certain tunes.
Alright, this song. It was inspired by a movie I had seen. An animated feature known as Midori. It was probably one of the most harrowing, soul destroying movies I've ever watched. It makes you feel bad to be a person. I would not recemond watching it, actually, because while it's good art, it's a terrible experience. This song was my way of scrubbing the movie from my brain space, by just shunting the memories of the movie into the lyrics so I don't have to think about this movie anymore.
All instruments and vocals were done by me. I'm not an amazing singer, but it's not like I was gonna get anyone else to do it, so I did it myself.
Here are the lyrics :
She's performing everyday
Doing chores like she's a slave
Always watching passing trains
She feels nothing but unending pain
Midori always wants to cry
Midori always wants to die
Midori wishes she was dead
Midori wishes this would end
Twelve years old
Sold to a freak show
Groomed and abused
Feeling hollow
Everything she sees
Everything she dreams
Dies for Midori
Just like her mommy
She's been sexually abused
She feels she has no value
The only thing she knows is pain
It can never be any other way
Midori always wants to cry
Midori always wants to die
Midori wishes she was dead
Midori wishes that this would end
Please
Please
