Feb 2022 electronic ballad
Took a TikTok singing filter for inspiration and wrote a chorus using the first three words it spat out.

Beauatiful
Fire
Say
The rest I just let myself go all-out reverby electronic goodness because I find those SO quick SO good and SO fun to compile.
Love
Let it burn to the cinders
There is nothing that’s left that’s worth risking your own life to save
Of
All the moves you’ve considered
You can watch until it’s all consumed or exhale and walk away
Just don’t feel any shame
It’s beautiful the way
This fire’s burning down
The walls around
What you could never say
Don’t
Let the things you’ve lost hold you
Let the ashes return to earth and feed what’s germinating underneath
Don’t
Let those old ghosts control you
Let them tangle up in the smoke that’s rising and get carried away
And though it’s buried beneath pain
It’s beautiful the way
This fire’s burning down
The walls around
What you could never say
What you have locked away
Is now just fuel for flames
Like forest full of flora
Dead and dry
Love
Let it burn to the cinders
There is nothing that’s left that’s worth risking your own life to save

Love it when the synth comes in! It's such a cool sequence, and the harmonies are on point. Ends abruptly and that last line really sticks with you. Good stuff!
