Sherlock (Original Song)

Lyrics:
Unreadable, yet overly eager to prove your knowledge
Impossible to impress or to embrace
Incapable of showing emotion if it means that you'll be questioned
'Cause we're both aware you'll always need your space
The violin spoke for you
I was the one who knew you by it
Slowly, the longing grew
And I realized how mistaken I'd been
You'd tell me not to call you a hero
You cast off your frock of indifference
The world must have meant something to you
Despite its alleged offenses
You'd say, "It's a front."
You'd say, "I'm a fraud."
Your sole motivation:
Maintaining the calm
Through your desperate efforts
Not to be forgotten
Untouchable: Your hunger to always be searching
I found you, and I thought I was satisfied
But, here we are--you're rubbing off, rubbing the wrong way
The curtain's frayed; the fabric won't fall the same
The violin told me the truth:
That you were familiar with loss and with loneliness
How could I expect anything less
Than your automatic mode of defense?
Tell me not to call you a hero
Cast off your frock of indifference
The world must have meant something to you
Despite its alleged offenses
You'd say, "It's a front."
You'd say, "I'm a fraud."
Your sole motivation:
Maintaining the calm
Through your desperate efforts
Not to be forgotten
I was your only friend
Don't leave me doubting
Don't let me think
That you never gave a shit
We both know you always
Felt cleverer for it
But, you wouldn't let it win:
The pride you let guide you
Through every incident
Hands to your face
Evading expression of
Sentiment
You'd tell me not to call you a hero
You cast off your frock of indifference
The world must have meant something to you
Despite its alleged offenses
You'd say, "It's a front."
You'd say, "I'm a fraud." (I was your only friend)
Your sole motivation:
Maintaining the calm
Through your desperate efforts
Not to be forgotten (I couldn't forget you)
I won't forget you

LOVE IT. This and "On side of the Angels" and Karliene's song are my favourites about Sherlock. This song...describes him so well, shows his human inhumanity...he is the antyheroic hero, it shows his defences and masks he thinks he has to wear because "caring is not an advantage" and "all hearts are broken". I just could hear all the feelings I've had watching the last episode of second season.

[@n0sramus487]

Also "I O U a fall" by Gemeni is nice

[@murdermcmurderface]

Lungs with smoke by Nicole Jade is seriously bloody awesome though

[@gizemgonenc5342]

AMAZING! Your voice, lyrics are just... perfect! I am speechless. I kinda felt like this is John's thoughts after Sherlock's 'death'.

[@christiana4573]

Gizem Gonenc You are spot on! in a way, it was my own coping with the cliffhanger!

[@gizemgonenc5342]

+ChristiAna oh okay thanks :)

[@Cr-lf2ll]

This captures the prospective of John Watson after the “Suicide” perfectly

[@elliehoward1992]

I was so relieved when he didn't really die😥getting emotional😓

[@christiana4573]

The lyrics are now in the description as well. Thank you all for your feedback and generous compliments!

[@aloistrancy5374]

Let's just imagine, John, Sherlock and Mycroft reacting to this..

[@rayah_y]

Alois Trancy oh jeez

[@GrownUpDev]

It would be legendary!!!!

[@christiana4573]

You are all so lovely, thank you! It would mean the world to me if you'd share this song around with friends, family, anybody really. Always so pleased that there are so many avid Sherlock fans like myself. xoxo, ChristiAna

[@luna_writes]

WHY IS THIS NOT EXTREMELY POPULAR D:

[@charlienigl9236]

this is so sad and so wonderful. It´s like stading next to John after the funeral. Your voice and the song are beautyful. Thank you very much for it

[@terryn1952]

I am so overwhelmed by awesomeness I think I just opened a new gate to my heart that is just growing the part of it that contains all of the Fangirl emotions; sadness, happiness, awe, shock, surprise, excitement. . . You are amazing. I wanna start a radio station now where u can play songs like this, based off of fandoms. . .

[@elliehoward1992]

I searched "songs to relate to when you're sad about sherlock" and I am pleased with the top result

Hey, I have a favor to ask. I'd like to sing this as a song at my concert, but to do so I'd need an off vocal/karaoke version. I was wondering if perhaps you could make one?

[@Bookdragon6660]

[@athenamartin3442]

[@livthekilljoy6665]

[@midnightzoe2408]

is it jut me that thinks that this is johns pov

[@christiana4573]

I absolutely began writing this song from John's point of view; It did evolve into a narration of Sherlock's introspection as well, but you are right in thinking that John is the narrator. :)

[@editorava1922]

can i put this in my channel for a shout out for you, or not. i love this song more then anything.

[@christiana4573]

+video221middleearth editer (carrie) I would be honored by this! Much thanks for your support.
