Salient Soul
by @roxya
Liner Notes
Another one inspired from an old poem of mine. Seems like this year I'm inspired by myself, haha.
This was a quick one take recording on my phone, cause I have not the energy to do more. Also probably the quickest melody written + recording I've probably done this month.
Lyrics
Salient soul
What’s life like from behind your eyes? I carry these questions deep within me
Who wouldn’t wonder about you You who wander wordlessly Salient soul
If only I could stay by your side Walk where you’ve been, follow your stride
Who wouldn’t wonder about you You who wander wordlessly Salient soul
Conversation creeps carelessly To the tip of my tongue I’d like to know (I’d like to know) I’d like to know
Conversation creeps carelessly To the tip of my tongue I’d like to know all about you I’d like to know, salient soul

Very compassionate piece about an unknown stranger. Singer willing to help and empathise with someone who (appears to be) lonely . Maybe the singer is trying to strike up a romantic relationship with the stranger. I felt by the end that I (ironically?) was looking from behind your eyes, getting a glimpse for a moment of your inner thoughts as you contemplated starting a conversation. Good job - it worked!!
