DescriptionI'm a lyricist and songwriter from India. In 2021, I graduated with a BA in Creative Writing, English Literature and Psychology, in the span of which, I collaborated in the development of a 3 Act Album Songbook. In 2022, I completed 2 certified courses in music theory. I can assure you, I'm a great writer and work with any genre of music, with my preferences lying in pop, R&B and soul. Though, metal gives me migraines. I hope to collaborate and create music through this platform and meet likeminded musicians.

Dreams & AmbitionsDreams: 1. Create songs that affect people's lives. 2. Create songs that bring me joy. 2. Make a career out of that. 3. Get rich. I do realize there is a one in million chance for that to materialize but well, gotta try right?

Lyrics

Here's the outro I wrote for the album. 
Be sure to read the note at the end if you'd like to delve a little deeper into the lyrics.

OUTRO: DEATH’S KISS

Colours drain from your eyes
Drain from your skin
Your lips
Bleed into mine

We walk through 
Gardens of mint,
Poppies and Elm 
Surround us

Rotting souls
With dusted dreams
And with forgotten lives, all
Seep into you

Colours drain from your eyes
Drain from your skin
Your lips
Bleed into mine

NOTE: 
In Greek mythology, Charon, a ferryman of the God of the Underworld, Hades, carries souls of the newly deceased across the river Styx that divides the mortal world from the world of the dead. That is what I’ve tried to portray in this track. 
I had to research plants that are believed to be found in the Underworld to come up with the lines-

“Gardens of mint,
Poppies and Elm” 

-to give a general sense of the surroundings. The lines-

“Rotting souls
With dusted dreams
And with forgotten lives”

-are meant to represent the Fields of Asphodel, where souls that have neither done exceptionally good or bad deeds, are sent to roam around the fields for eternity.

As for the instruments, nothing says dark like cello, pipe organ and waterphone. But the most important part is to not resolve the music, leaving the listener with this unsettling feeling wanting them to press play again.
