Written/drafted: December 5th, 2023 (around the time my heartbreak occurred)
Genre: Pop with some indie elements
VERSE 1
I see the rainbow in the sky
I see the colors passing by
In this worn-out world, emotions can't be denied
The demons of my past haunt me constantly
Whispering all my past mistakes,
Like some kind of stolen kiss
PRE-CHORUS
Lost in a sea of tears, searching for bliss
Caught between feeling empty and feeling the abyss
Watching all the little bits
Falling from your fingertips
CHORUS
Whispers of love from your gentle lips
But I know it's all a lie
It's a matter of time
Before I burst out crying
These words might heal my emotional scar
Wounds that never close,
But I try my best
VERSE 2
Angst in my veins, dreams drenched in sadness
The silence kills me
It's like we never talk anymore
But I know you want to
And I want to mend my heart back
Forevermore, I can't stop crying
Even I won't let me
BRIDGE
In these moments of darkness, I strive to find the light
To battle with my demons and emerge from endless night
With every chord I strum, I pray for sweet release
To conquer this angst and let my soul find peace
CHORUS
Whispers of love from your gentle lips
But I know it's all a lie
It's a matter of time
Before I burst out crying
These words might heal my emotional scar
Wounds that never close,
But I try my best
OUTRO
I'll navigate these tangled paths, let melodies be my guide
For in the music's embrace, my wounded spirit can reside
Though the road is bittersweet, with every note I play
I'll find my way back to chase the angst away
AUTHOR'S NOTE
Now that I am officially dating the guy this song is about back when my heart was broken, I've decided to publish it.
I'm honestly really proud of this song, how far I've come, the lyrics, the meaning behind everything 🫶
I hope you enjoyed "Fake Angst", and be prepared for more songwriting updates in the future!
I love you all so much, and take care of yourselves ♡
