Stay Away (Don't Come Near to Me) - A She-Ra Inspired Original Song

LYRICS:
I know it might come as a shock to you, but it’s true
Seasons have changed between us, like I always knew they would
And I want to come, escape this cage of gilded glass
But your request is a lie that could never last
I am stronger
I found the truth about my heart here
And I’m a danger
The one thing I ask of you
Stay away, don’t come near to me
I’ve died to my own heart, you see
I have changed over these years
I’m not the weak one drowned in fear
And I’m dying for your touch
But I must not want it too much
Decay lies within my mind, my soul
And I could never live if
I harmed you and lost all control
So leave me now
Darling it’s best for both of us
If you leave me now
I know it might come as a shock to you, but it’s true
You can come, you can start again anew now with me
Come away, redemption isn’t a children’s dream
We must find the place between sleep and reality
We’ll be stronger
Defeat evil, find the truth
And you’re a danger
But no one’s as simple as you say
Stay away, don’t come near to me
I’ve died to my own heart, you see
I have changed over these years
I’m not the weak one drowned in fear
And I’m dying for your touch
But I must not want it too much
Decay lies within my mind, my soul
And I could never live if
I harmed you and lost all control
So leave me now
Darling, it’s best for both of us
If you leave me now
I’m not scared now
You’re not simply stone cold bad
Come away, start over
You can be satisfied and glad
[Spoken] Satisfied?
I was told once to be satisfied with who I am
Last time I did I stood by and watched though I can’t
As an army came and killed the people that we knew
Now it seems the one holding me back is you
I have no doubt you love me
But you couldn’t understand
What it’s like to have your mouth gagged
And the ground beneath like sinking sand
So leave me and I’ll stay here all alone
I’ll be satisfied upon my dark throne, my dark throne
Stay away, don’t come near to me
My goals have changed, I’m free
Before, I could afford to be
Hero of those in need
But now I live here only for my mind and soul
My only goal is now to stay alive and play my role
That stone, it controls me now
That is my health, my life, my vow
That stone, I’ve earned it now
With the blood of helpless men
Don’t use my former name now
I’m the queen of shadows
And it’s all thanks to his slight
His fear when we casted that night
So stay away,
Run and hide from me, sweetest friend
I have murdered because I can
And I’m no longer who you say I am

This is great 👍

You’re singing is really amazing, THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SONGGGGG 😳

[@joyeeverett6196]

Thanks! I'm not trained, so there are some hiccups. It's based on an early draft of Starwalker that is, unfortunately, scrapped - but the idea is still in the current draft in places. There's just not a designated scene for it anymore. Ack, sorry. I'm rambling about my fics again...can you tell I'm autistic? XD I'm glad you like it! I plan to upload some songs on an EP once I finish my current poetry collection. I'm excited to see what people think. :)

[@joyeeverett6196]

@@showerspawnthemanlyman437 It's not up yet, unfortunately - I'm still writing it! But you can read Alura on my Wattpad account here: www.wattpad.com/story/206026076-alura-the-alura-trilogy-book-1-she-ra-2018-%E2%9C%94 Please let me know what you think. I'm also going to be adding a LOT more content to it once I finish the trilogy, so I'd love for you to stick around! The story is about the leadup to the Spell, and Starwalker takes place between then and Micah's exile.

First view and comment. That is strange. Nice song.

Thank you!

Did you play the piano in the video?

[@joyeeverett6196]

No, it’s an autogenerated tune in Garageband

[@valentinaembers5713]

@@joyeeverett6196 Ah, okay. Cool!

[@valentinaembers5713]

Is there a way that you could send me the tune and/or the lyrics so that I could try singing it?

I’ll update the description.
