Until

by @scarletpeterwilde

Liner Notes

A short interlude-style song representing pessimism and a feeling of "hope for the best, expect the worst", a feeling I live on a daily basis.

I initially wanted to write a full song with the idea of ending each line with the word "until", but I felt that would probably get annoying quite quickly. But I liked the idea of a short two-verse song that encapsulates a feeling without overstaying its welcome. It passes by, tells its story, and leaves. I find it a little haunting, in a way, and I quite like it as a result.

Lyrics

I’ll keep walking on until I’ll keep standing tall until I will show a smile until Everything will be alright until

And I’ll sleep peacefully until And I’ll have faith in me until There will be a light until Everything will be alright until Everything will be alright until

That opening chord sequence with just the piano is really nice. Your vocal fits perfectly with the mournful quality of the song, and the repeated unfulfilled until is a great way to tie the song together.
