================
Perhaps even in a perfect world, death would have to exist to let us appreciate our lives. But the worst part of death is not knowing what happens afterwards, and not being able to communicate with those that have moved on, or those we leave behind. This is about not being able to cope with another's death, and desperately trying to bring a life that was too short back to this world, forever.
Musically, this song embraces the electronic side of my music a bit more, with a couple of new synthy instruments including the trumpets for the fanfare-style sections. It's aggressive yet upbeat and happy at the same time, and it's definitely a favourite of my own. :)

[Lyrics]
You are the one who never lived
Although I saw your every minute in my mind
The visions of your life I've seen
But now they're fading, you were never meant to die
The light of my obsession
A victim of oppression
Freedom you have earned
We made the world together
And it should be forever
You must now return
Now these memories won't let me
Live my life alone
This touch will heal your lifeless heart
Revive your broken bones
I will not let you rest in peace
While I have life to give
And through the power I have made
Forever you shall live
You are the one who freed my mind
You made me realize who I was through all this time
An icon of my fantasy
But all this time I didn't know that you could die
In time I heard your calling
And then I saw you falling
Into dreams so deep
And trapped in time I'll keep you
Until the day I reach you
Wake you from your deadly sleep
Now these memories won't let me
Live my life alone
This touch will heal your lifeless heart
Revive your broken bones
I will not let you rest in peace
While I have life to give
And through the power I have made
Forever you shall live
Through worlds divided
We'll be united
Infinity before you, forever in your wake
We shall be together
Still not forever
A fragment of your lifespan
For I am now the one who will die
Memories won't let me
Live my life alone
This touch will heal your lifeless heart
Revive your broken bones
I will not let you rest in peace
While I have life to give
And through the power I have made
Forever
I will reach you from the other side
The world that you have seen
Recognize my voice, open your eyes
And wake up from your dream
Then the fanfare will be heard
To let them know that you're alive
Scream the victory across the world
I brought you back to life

Oh, man, this is rocking. Why didn't I start listening to your stuff sooner? Well, probably because QuickTime Alternative isn't good enough for Fur Affinity for some reason, and I didn't want to get the real QuickTime. But holy crap, this is good. You brought me to the dark side and it was worth it.
I wouldn't wish Quicktime on anyone, so it's good to know it was worth it! I avoided installing it for ages too, as Media Player Classic was capable of running everything I needed... but then I got an iPod for Christmas and iTunes rudely installed things all over my hard drive.
It does mean I can play things in the browser, though. Thanks for saying that - I think "worth installing Quicktime for" might be the greatest compliment I've ever received.

It's not bad at all, but because everything is lumped in together as "art" rather than having separate categories for the (very diverse) range of submissions, it's very difficult to get anything noticed among the generous twelve submissions there are on the front page at a time.
Having said that, there are a good few musicians I've seen there - a lot of them are people from here that want a URL for their music that's more acceptable to hand out to people!
The only things I can find wrong with the site are that thanks to the shiny Web 2.0-like interface and very Myspace-like customization of pages it's almost completely innavigable, and there's the option to "downvote" submissions if you don't like them - I can't imagine anything constructive coming of that.
