Liner Notes

Another #dorian piece; I like that mode for #fantasy. It is in response to the #dailywritingprompt "Underneath It All."

Lyrics

The Underneath
Jemma Kline

The tire stains and screeching trains,
The wires in the sky,
The cries of cars, the iron bars
Will fade from ears and eyes.

Join me in the Underneath,
Listen to its call.
Join me in the Underneath,
The truth beneath it all.

As we descend, past stairway’s end,
Where stones forget the light,
And find the place where fireflies race,
Midst wonders lost from sight.

Join me in the Underneath,
Listen to its call.
Join me in the Underneath,
The truth beneath it all.

A river flows through mushroom groves,
And feeds the roots of trees.
We’ll build a raft that’s sure and fast
To reach the silver sea.

Join me in the Underneath,
Listen to its call.
Join me in the Underneath,
The truth beneath it all.

Our days will pass on mirrored glass,
So silent and serene,
Till on the shore we’ll walk once more,
And join the land of dreams.

Join me in the Underneath,
Listen to its call.
Join me in the Underneath,
The truth beneath it all.

(flute bridge)

Join me in the Underneath,
Listen to its call.
Join me in the Underneath,
The truth beneath it all.

charming sci-fi fantasy imagining, the music and lyric complement each other well, too! nice work!

I love that mode as well and it works so well for this melody and song. I really love the inviting nature of the chorus. Nice change up between the chorus and verse! Well preformed.
