Denial

by @sophielynette

Liner Notes

For the Oracle Challenge, I drew "Denial: Not everything is in reach, my child. Sometimes I must create distance between what you want and when or how you are meant to receive it."

Although I'll be honest, I didn't actually read the card description until just now, I was going more for a denial of the truth type of vibe, but I think it still works...

Oh well, it's a song.

Lyrics

Sometimes I feel so alone
Even when I'm in a crowded room
Sometimes I feel so misunderstood
Even when I'm right here next to you

Let's all play the game and break a smile
Even when we don't have reason to
Let's all pretend that we'll be alright
Because that's the thing that friends should do

We've been friends so long, you'd think I'd know
When there's something very wrong with you
Take another drink and take your turn
Telling me your latest rendevous

We've been friends so long, you'd think I'd say
All the things that have been both'ring me
Someday I will tell, but not today
I'm afraid of what you'll think of me

What if I told you I'm dying here
What if you tell me you're dying too
Even if we both could tell the truth
What if there was nothing we could do?

It still works 😄 Beautiful piano work and can feel the despair coming through. Think it's something we can all connect on as well at a certain time in our lifetime. Nice take on the challenge. Thank you so much for participating 😄

Nice piano line - I like how it builds throughout the verse and the hook between verses is cool.
