Your Final Key
by @jamesacop
Liner Notes
Sooo after mid February I really had to dig in on moving out of my old house by the end of the month. All I could really write was little bits and bobs on my phone while taking breaks. So I wanted to spend the last couple hours of the month adding to them to make them into almost songs! This one I wrote as kind of a sad love letter to my piano that I won’t be able to take to the new place with me. Anyways, although this is the first year I haven’t reached 14, I still had fun. Hope to make up for it next year with more songs, more collabs ‘n all the fun stuff. Happy end of fawm!
Lyrics
Hey, we meet again It’s been a while since I first met you And I’d say that I am feeling Sort of strange To see you again If I had to pick a feeling it would be Something redeeming but I don’t know
All, the things you’ve seen You’ve seen my best maybe my worst And I am feeling like it’s worth you and me to spend, another minute again Maybe it’s our time to depart, we can look back and have a restart but you
Feels like I am running from a piece of me in a way, I’m afraid I’ll regret Seeing that the ending isn’t always near, It just appears, but I am here for you to play me your final key
Lost, in that world of yours The way you wrapped me up and spun me And it feels like something running from my heart And my soul appears, to have a part of it inside you, I am leaving it behind to become
Something I am running out of time to spend, in a way I’m afraid I’ll regret but seeing that end isn’t always what it appears And I am here for you to play your final key.

Omg a real tear jerker! 🥲 sorry you don't get to bring your piano to the new house! I'd be heart broken 💔. I really loved this last piano song a lot though, all the cool substitutions with the staccato feel feels something out of a movie/story. It almost reminded me of some of the Steven Universe tracks in a silly way. Love the lyrics of the hook. The "final key" seemed like a great piece to riff off. Nice work! 🎶🎵
