So, first. This isn't something I'm going to do with any regularity. I figured the best way to give Levi a voice after all this time was to make a song. And so that's what I did, I worked on it throughout last year and got to a place where I was finally "ok" with what was made.So, for transparency. I can only play guitar. So what I did originally was start with a basic track I made myself, then used virtual instruments to make the other parts. This final track however was mixed by an audio engineer that re-did the instruments, so none of the instruments I did myself in this last version."But Levi, is that your voice?!"It's as much my voice as any singer who's voice is heavily processed by antares and an audio engineer. xP "What is the song about?"It's from Levi's POV, and I've attached the lyric sheet. If I over explain it takes away the magic of what it is. I'm still going to do some polls, I was just excited I got the master back and I've delayed long enough. After all this time in the RP and on social media, Levi needed a voice. And now she has one. So, this is "Electric girl" a fun little side project. :D Enjoy. (edit: I accidentally posted an earlier revision of the lyrics, I fixed it. :D ) Levi - Electric Girl
Rain on my shoulders, neon in my eyesCity never sleeps, neither do IThey call me human just to make it easyBut I feel the storm when lightning breathes meLight blue memories, fading to blackEvery year I change, never unpackI wear this skin like borrowed clothesTrying to be needed, nobody knowsI'm not brokenI'm just undefinedToo much power for a borrowed lifeI'm an electric girl in a world that don't fitHeart full of thunder, hands won't quitI light up the sky 'cause they need me strongBut no one asks where I belongI’m an electric girl, caught between the linesNot a god, not yours, not entirely mineIf I surge too bright, don’t turn awayI’m trying to learn how to stay
They ask where I’m from, I say “nowhere you know”A home in the stars I can’t call my ownThey want my power, not my nameThey love the storm but fear the rainI don’t age like you, I don’t fade like thisTime stands still when you outlive itI laugh it off, make it look okayBut some nights I wish I’d decayI don’t need savingI just need spaceSomewhere I’m moreThan a last defenseI’m an electric girl in a borrowed skinToo alive to lose, too sworn to winI crack the silence just to feel okayIf I stop sparking, I'll drift away I’m an electric girl, dancing in the rainLightning in my veins, duty in my nameIf I don’t belong, I’ll build my placeOut of sparks and empty space
If love is a wire, I learned it wrongPlugged into forever, holding onThey call it a bond, I call it fateI don’t need heaven, I’ll generate
I don’t want a throneI don’t want controlI just want someoneTo see me wholeI’m an electric girl, still figuring outHow to carry the charge without shorting out,If I scare you, I swear it’s not my goalI just learned too young how to controlI’m an electric girl, standing in the stormNot a weapon, not a myth , just warm!If I don’t have answers, I’ll still stayI don’t need a sign, I’ll find my wayRain keeps fallingCity still humsIf this is homeThen here I come
