This song took forever...
Wrote this back in August 2021 but it took a while to really get it to a point where I'd want to release it. Tried to keep the feeling of moving on to a different chapter in your life and leaving all of those memories behind... Hope you all enjoy this one!
Huge thanks to Michelle for the vocals, I can't thank her enough for helping me out with this one. Go check her out!

LYRICS:
V1:
I know, we're at
A crossroads
And the paths we take from here
Are our own
It looks like, this journey
Is ending
And another one will soon
Unfold
Take time, remind
Ourselves
Of the people we once were
And how we've changed
Lessons, learned and
Forgotten
But I know that you and I
Will stay the same
P.C.:
Thinking of the things we've done
And words that we have said
And these memories
Are ones I can't forget
And honestly the time we spent
Is time I won't regret
But I need a reset
I need a reset
I need a reset
V2:
Drifting, oh so
Slowly
And soon enough we'll fully
Drift away
But we still, share the
Same sky
I'm sure we'll meet again
One day
Last train, can't stay
Take care
Knowing that my place
Here has gone
So while we cry that it's over
I hope we'll smile when we're older
Looking back but after
We move on
[P.C.]
[P.C. again...]
The drop is cool
Can’t say anymore than what has altered been said. The track is amazing with minor, extremely minor, mixing adjustments. Mostly in V2 for me the drums are a little intense and causes sone auto clipping of the audio signal making the vocals dissonant slightly. They could’ve been softened a little using a lowpass filter with slightly decreased cutoff frequency.
Not saying it should be changed at all. I’m hust saying that if I had to give a critique. The song is perfect otherwise really catchy with a timeless lyrical theme. Phenomenal work by both of you.
Gotcha! Thank you so much for the kind words and the feedback!
Honestly, this is amazing. No problems with the vocals or lyrics, in terms of production, this is also amazing, but definitely could have some noticeable mixing improvements.
Mixing
The song starts off really good, personally, I would've cut off some of the high ends a bit on the piano to make it sound a bit softer so her voice is fighting the piano a bit less. The rim that comes on also sounds slightly too quiet but it's also fine where it is, this is just a nitpick.
I don't have any nitpicks with the vocal chops, buildups, or drop but it's the break after it at 2:14-3:03. When I first heard it, I noticed the drums were hella loud and fighting the vocals a ton and that's when I looked at the waveform and noticed it was just as big as the drop. I do suggest next time to tone down the drums after the drop and the way to make sure it's sitting nicely is to look at a specific part of the song and see if the master goes above 0db.
Nothing else really clicks to me right now, I do love the vocals in the second drop and the detuning that happens as well is just gorgeous. Great work to both of you once again!
