Skirmish time, the word is Valentine, my brain is thinking of my 8 year old daughter who has a new imaginary friend. This is most definitely me projecting my own neurosis/insecurities/fears of being unloved onto what is no doubt a normal and healthy part of child development, thank you once again fAWM for the very cheap therapy I really appreciate it ok back to working on my own elaborate weird songs.
I am late on this skirmish but I tried to keep to the one hour thing. although who knows, it's not like there was some official sitting there with a stopwatch in a monobob race.
Well I've got a valentine
she's all I need
pretty little friend of mine
She knows I believe
all my loneliness is gone
since she's been here
Just cause you don't see don't mean
that she ain't near
So go get you a valentine
then you'll see
all this running and random buying
ain't what you need
I've got someone who loves me
I don't care what you see
All this cold reality
never stops to notice me
And if I feel that she has gone
I know she'll be back before long
So my little valentine
does what I want
listens to me all the time
like a dot in some Serat
I know it looks like I'm alone
all the time
but I know I don't care
cause I've got my valentine

Stopwatch guy not show for you? Someone needs to have a word, it's not good enough to be this inconsistent.
Playing/performing is bang on, as per, and this has such a sweet vulnerability to it. A lovely take on the prompt.

God this is just wonderful
It’s just… i don’t know. So very genuine and a display of being vulnerable and it’s… like it cuts deep. Deep, down to what everyone certainly wants which is to be loved.
This is quite beautiful.

Oh, wow, the instrumental break! So nice. The words are sweet too, and the tune and backing instrumental work well together.
