i swear there is no else


Goodbye is the first single of 2021!

i found a new plugin called "drip" and the synth sound is the end result of me trying different sounds. i also chose a drum plugin called "ting", made from some swedish producers. ting is made of stuff you can find in your house, keys, kitchenware, etc. i really like these kinds of percussions where you don't know what kind of sound comes next.


yes, i got uncomfortable in the snow. yes, i happened to look outside before recording and thinking that i wanted to sing in the snow. yes, my legs and back started to tingle. no, i don't regret it. it's nothing.


GOODBYE LYRICS

some voices telling us

how we should feel

how we should be and act

so we can see

believing what is best for you and me


believe the road is out there in our reach

think back on what the voices truly teach

what’s best to be for you,

what’s best for me

if I change it’s for myself

i swear, there is no else


say goodbye

to doubt it’s not the answer

say goodbye to lies now tell that to yourself

it’s your story and it’s true

and it’s making sense to you

so leave the other stories to themselves


next step is what we chose

to do instead,

too far to see what truly lies ahead

i’ll take you by the hand,

let’s try again

if I change it’s for myself i swear,

there is no else


say goodbye

to doubt it’s not the answer

say goodbye to lies now tell that to yourself

it’s your story and it’s true

and it’s making sense to you

so leave the other stories to themselves


say goodbye

and write another chapter

say goodbye and try

now tell that to yourself

it’s your story and it’s true

and it’s taking shape for you

so leave the other stories to themselves.
