This is my first attempt at making a video. I hope you guys like it!

Lyrics:
Pale september, I wore the time like a dress that year
The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin
But as the embers of the summer lost their breath and disappeared
My heart went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within
But then he rose, brilliant as the moon
in full
And sank in the burrows of my keep

And all my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im singing him to sleep

He goes along just as a water lily
Gentle on the surface of his thoughts his body floats
Unweighted down by passion or intensity
Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts
And he finds a home in me
For what misfortune sows, he knows my touch will reap

And all my armour failing down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im singing him to sleep
All my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im singing him to sleep

  • @only1leanda It's nice to see that you are still around and doing better.

  • bring back the real

  • I was reading the comments and I felt like a should write a comment. I am a doctor and I have treated a lot of patients with mental illness and I have myself been depressed. The poor concentration can be a symptom and once the depression is treated your memory and attention gets a lot better if you´re on the right medication.

    There is no reason to constantly feel miserable if you can get help. Ignore the forums speaking negatively about treatment and doctors, satisfied patients never write.

  • This is my favorite song in life... Thank you Fiona...

  • @Shadowcorporation Thank you for your advice. I will do ballet more often and other things, now that it is winter break :D

  • @Shadowcorporation I got through hardship. coming from one country to another with a single parent. It was very, very hard not having much of any support. That's when you hit the guitar brother, you write songs. you forget about everything else, and do what you love. They may hate you for it, but that's because they have one thing they can't touch, that you can. Never forget that.

  • @jonasheart09 I don't think you ever really get over it. you cope better over time..some put on a smiley face, never deal with it, & become more miserable. I dealt with it by expressing/recording my feelings. writing. recording music. art. short films. I recall a quote from someone who said "depression is a discovery process" that really stuck with me. Creating music and art gave me a confidence I didn't have at the worst times..it kept me from sinking, & still does to this day.

  • @Shadowcorporation I am currently a college student, and i am depressed as well..how di you get over it? And how did you overcome school? I have poor concentration, and i cant really retain much. When i read your comment, i feel like that is me right now

  • @ozilinish1 You're right, this album will never get old. I was in high school when it came out...I fell in love with her music the first time i heard "Criminal" on the radio. Even though it was about the only song they would actually play on the radio, this whole album ended up being golden.

  • Still lsten to this song everyday!
