Feb 2022 electronic duet collab collablibs
I talked BJV into one of my collablibs duets - I sent him a basic track with instructions to do MOST of the lyrics and vocals but leave gaps for me to fill in the blanks.
I can keep good company
With my good ideas and bad dancing
When you started to run from me
Thought I’d lost the skill for romancing
You had something to learn from me
But you didn’t have the guts to lean in close
You just took the worst of me
As an excuse to give up the ghost
I wish you well, Even if you don’t
I’m leaving hell, Even if you won’t
I know grudges are hard to keep
You’ve been holding yours for a while
Like a garden with roots beneath
It tugs at the edge of your smile
I know life’s been hard on us
But you don’t have to make it harder
By holding hostage all your trust
Pushing your love underwater
I wish you well, Even if you don’t
I’m leaving hell, Even if you won’t
(MM)
You love your own company
To the point I don’t know why you need mine
Can’t see how I was running
Into traps that you set in our life
I’m not gonna lean back in
Just so you can fail to catch my fall
Kept making the same mistake
Until I learned to stop making it at all
(BJV. *MM)
I wish you well, Even if You don’t
*I gave no reason to think I don’t
I’m leaving hell, Even if you won’t
*I wish you well, but let you back inside I won’t
I wish you well, Even if You don’t
*I hope you find a better place
I’m leaving hell, Even if you won’t
*Cause you wouldn’t know heaven if it smacked you in the face

This is a great melody. It suits the disappointment and sadness expressed in the lyrics of someone finally giving up on someone else. Great lyrics too. I enjoyed listening. Good song!

This was great. Really like the sonic sounds. I've been having some life issues lately, and would like to think I'm leaving that "hell" behind myself! Cheers!
