Move Me
by @roxya
Liner Notes
Trying to expand my skillset I suppose. This is all so very out of my acoustic guitar one take comfort zone. The piano is programmed midi, cause I can not play (though I wish I could). I might have overdone the reverb. Need to move on though. #goodenoughforfawm
Lyrics
Move me
since when have I been walking around with mud on my feet
never even noticing each step is heavy
so I drag it all along
digging furrows in the ground
i’ve taken all of these
these things that keep me bound
wont you move me change my heart this stone I carry break it apart
it’s not easy to learn and let go to heal from past hurts forget what you’ve known
It might not always show
but scars can callous
and thicken ones skin
wont you move me change my heart this stone I carry break it apart

The soaring vocals are amazing! This is an important subject matter, and I love the way you've described it as "mud on my feet." Truly, carrying those hurts is like an extra weight carried through everyday. The harmonies just gave me shivers! I love an emotionally honest song, maybe even envy the bravery. The arpeggio in the back behind the piano really keeps this moving and interesting.
Sweet melody with deep, emotional lyrics. The midi sounds really good with your soft vocals. I really like it!
This is so beautifully poetic with the strong images that express the mood and sentiment of the lyric so well. The keys work brilliantly here. The phrasing and pacing of your melody allows the melancholy to skink deep and ignite and empathetic response from the heart as I listen. Your vocals are gorgeous here and convey a vulnerability. I love everything about this song.
