Chromatic Expression

let me elaborate a bit about this song.

i wrote this song when i was in F3, wayyyy back then. that time, i wrote for myself, i never thought of forming a band with anyone since i don't know who can play this and that. this song is in A Major, so it's quite happy but i made it look like it's kinda sad by writing pessimistic lyrics.

this song is entirely inspired by the magnificent, one and only, Muse. (heheh, a bit "over", don't you think? well, whatever.). i name it 'Chromatic Expression' because the riffs of this song have chromatic scale.

the verse is 'dark', 'down', 'failing', 'giving up'. but, the pre-chorus is like a small little hope trying to emerge and finally the chorus is very positive if it's compared to the verses. the chorus is like the 'sunshine' of this song.

this song is 4.41 minutes long.

i would seriously love to put this song in my blog but it is very 'raw', haven't done the mixing process yet. so, i'll just post the lyrics here.

Chromatic Expression

My trust in you,
Overused and abused,
Life just carries on,
When you're dead and gone,
When you're dead and gone.

Your gaze beams a hole in me,
Your gaze beams a hole in me.

I feel my whole world,
Crushed, destroyed completely,
When you're out of here,
Hold you in my arms,
Cast away your tears,
Fight away your fears.

One day,
You will pay,
All the price,
It won't suffice.

Your gaze beams a hole in me,
Your gaze beams a hole in me.

I feel my whole world,
Crushed, destroyed completely,
When you're out of here,
Hold you in my arms,
Cast away your tears,
Fight away your fears.

Ini random lah sayang. . .

see, that picture right there, is what we call "random". .that's my cousin, we did cam whoring. .

okay, for the first paragraph, i'm gonna write in malay, i didn't write malay for quite some time now, i feel awkward when i write malay now, i gotta practice, so let's get it started.

That blue 'creature', i made it myself, inspired by ben ten's diamondhead~. another random. .

sekarang ni, jiwa rasa sikit kosong (uish, i feel poyo laa to write in malay). .duduk rumah, tgk tv, besarkan bontot, msg with busuk, main gitar, keluar sekali sekala, itu saja. .kadang-kadang rasa jugak sunyi, bila sunyi je, ajak keluar dengan jollene, itupun bukanlah selalu. .rasa macam nak buat je benda yang aku takkan dapat buat banyak kali sekarang ni, macam bungee jump ke, apa apa pon jadi lah. .
okay, there's another random, that's 'mica', my cutest little cat~. mica~~

shit man~, enough talking in malay, i really do feel awkward writing in malay~. .well, need to spice things up over here. .in this post i'm gonna talk a lil' bit about my songs that i wrote and about my 'new' addiction.

that picture, that is me, with my brother's acoustic guitar, i use that to write songs.

i bought a. . . . .okay, now i feel like blushing to say this~. . .i bought a. . . .i bought a gameboy micro. . .haha, u can laugh all u want at me~. . .i mean, i bought it for fun, i am not that serious on it after all and the price is quite shocking, it is very cheap for a gaming console. .that's why i bought it. . .anyways, i'm playing pokemon now and my charizard is level 42 now~. .hehe. . .i mean, come on guys~. .it is not something bad and there's nothing to be ashamed of when u play games rite?. .i mean it's like temporary satisfaction, after i go to further studies, that thing could be gone for good. .so, i don't see anything kiddo about it~. .and aunty ling once said to me, it's something sounds like this "oma u should do things that u want this holiday before going to college". .hell yeah aunty, i'll do that. .hah. .

still remember this busuk?. .

ok, music time. .in the past few months, i've been creating songs. .i write it for fun, at least i do have something to do when i have free time during this nothingness-months-before-going-for-college. .i created like 5-6 songs, the songs varies, love to politics, u get what i mean. .let me list u the name of the song that i created:

-Chromatic Expression
-Wonderful
-Hati yang ku benci
-Trauma
-Awake (it's ours, not mine~)

well, that is me. .need not elaborations. .

from these, Wonderful and Awake are the two songs that i wrote about my life and very meaningful to me. .Wonderful is about not giving up even if u fall down, parents got ur back, life is wonderful and it is wonderful to know that u love someone that is really important to u, someone that u care a lot about. .then Awake, Awake i got it after i dreamt of something (this dream, i can't tell about it, it's personal), then i told her about it and she wants to work on it too. .this song is about us entirely. .this song is ours, no one else, just u and me, ours. .

okie dokie, i got nothing to say already. .it's enough. .

P/S: thank you to those who wished me happy birthday; my busuk, alif, azraai, aishah, nina, my sisters, and so many more, i just couldn't put it here, but u guys will always be remembered by me. .

Cheers,
Umar.
