Two Arms And A Kiss (YouTube)

Writing lyrics to my new songs has been progressing very slowly, so I thought I had to share something older... I have revisited old songs to change vocalists from Vocaloid to Synthesizer V ones. This song was even more problematic, I wasn't satisfied with the old arrangement, but I couldn't find a working one. So I went to even more extremes when trying different instrumentations. I very much like this metal version, even though it doesn't match with the lyrics.

Lyrics are quite strange and I don't quite remember what this song is about, but I found my old description: "A real fairy tale: the main character becomes free from the author's leash". Maybe that's the point... I made an AI video to highlight it, but it could be that the video ruins the idea, because I had too much fun making it laugh Maybe you can tell or you can find your own interpretation. Anyway, enjoy the wild ride smile

Lyrics:

From the dust of the ground
from the rib of a rueful clown
born was a tale of a poetical male
a princess and half the kingdom.
But time passed by
still living in a fantasy
a quixotic dreamer blind to see
the holy grail of reality.

Two arms and a kiss
the triangle of genesis
for a glorious night
in the Eden of light
cut your leash
be more than your creator's pastiche.

From the wood of the pine
from the ink of the storyline
born was a ploy of a mischievous boy
pretending to be handsome and charming.
But time passed by
still stuck in a puppet role
no blessing of the breath of life
no cosmic touch of a loving soul.

Two arms...

You don't have to tilt
at the windmills of your guilt
don't be a marionette
don't settle for the acts of the script
promise at Juliet's crypt
one day to become a real don
from an ugly duckling to a swan.

Two arms..

Two arms..
