Great job on the song by the way. The atmosphere is great.

Made for the 80s Inspired Music Jam
This is actually my first track with vocals outside of some other tracks of mine with some vocalizations. I wrote & sang them myself, not perfectly, but I did my best for my first time.
Hope you all enjoy. :)
LYRICS:
I knew you'd be there for me;
just didn't know when.
Took some time 'til I could see -
my soul could not rhyme with no rhythm then.
Oh, I could not begin to understand why you left me behind,
but I know in time, you will see me for who I am. Alright!
Lantern made to be alight,
instead the dread begins the plight.
Mind torn apart, spared no mercy,
but one sound heart as deep as the sea.
Oh, I could have been made to understand why you'd leave me behind,
but until that time, I'll kiss the void; it's who I am. Goodbye!
I'll never give up!
I'll never give in!
A man made without,
but unshaken within!
It's all I know!

I rerecorded and fixed a bit of the vocals, but I did leave anything alone that was passable enough to not overdo it with my perfectionism, humble beginnings & all that.

So I'm not sure what happened, but I randomly leveled-up after making this track for some reason, and ended up making the mixing/mastering a lot better. Woops~!
Great job on the song by the way. The atmosphere is great.

Beautiful chord progression and vocals reminiscent of M83

first time in my life on Newgrounds when I'm looking at a picture attached in the description for a track and it's, like, a PERFECT representation of what I hear. great job, I love it!
