Wither ✿ | Rachel Rose Mitchell

WITHER by RACHEL ROSE MITCHELL from the album HEART OF MINE, released January 2016!
This is the final track from Heart Of Mine and will likely be my last upload for a little while as I work to get the next album out! I can't say how long the wait is going to be, but I bet it'll be at least a couple of months.

WITHER LYRICS:
Don’t let me wither.
Make a decision.
If you stay, they’ll call you 'traitor'.
Leave one way now or the other later.
I lived a thousand lives to meet you.
I’d die a thousand times to keep you.
I watched a thousand years before I
knew what I was missing.
Don't let me wither.
Make a decision.
If you stay, they’ll call you 'traitor'.
Leave one way now or the other later.
The choice is yours, it’s getting colder,
but don’t let that weigh on your shoulders.
The burden of decision is far from
what I wanted for you.
I've lived a thousand lives to meet you.
I’d die a thousand times to keep you.
I can’t watch the years alone now
know what I was missing.
Don't let me wither.
Make a decision.
If you stay, they’ll call you 'traitor'.
Leave one way now or the other later.

NATURE has lived many lives. That is what this song about. The wind and the plants and the insects and lives who cared about the home that keep them well and thriving.

[@f1reari3s]

This song is my spiritual calling for a decision beautifully timed . This song is So Beautiful.

[@thedatabase677]

I always forget how beautiful this song is since it's at the end of the album. Lovely as always, thank you so much for making a boring Halloween into something special!

Just want to say, I've been listening to your music for three weeks now. Really loved it. Just bought Heart of Mine and Shadow Puppets. (Would have bought the Shadow/Light pack, but I didn't see it until after I bought Shadow)

[@thelosergod]

wow you have a good voice. keep up the good work ^•^

[@marieb4496]

Hi Rachel! Thank you for uploading this! This is so beautiful and also so sad and haunting. Is it inspired by Kili and Tauriel like the Farewell Song?

[@RachelRoseMitchell]

Hi! Thank you :) I took some liberties and in the end it's only vague but you're indeed correct! I wrote both the chorus and main piano lines for Farewell Song and Wither on the same morning in January 2015, actually.

[@MizaBrega]

Yaaas honey!

[@destinybarrett4638]

*gasp* (oh! and um... Rachel if you see this, what would you say is one of your most inspirational songs a low alto could sing comfortably? My chorus teacher wants me to sing a solo of my choice and I would love to use one your songs!.... if I can. 😊)

[@RachelRoseMitchell]

That's a tricky question as I'm a soprano and write songs for my range haha. I asked my sister (a classically trained mezzo) and we both think that Farewell Song and Say I Matter are probably the best alto songs I have for something like a solo, though they both have a couple of high lines that might not be in your comfortable range depending on how low you mean. I Walked Alone is definitely in alto range but I'm not sure it's recital material, same with Standing There. Or maybe River Run Red? Let me know if you need an instrumental version for any of these :)

[@destinybarrett4638]

*****​ I just fangirled so much because you responded. 😆 Anyway, I think since the main theme for the recital is love, heartbreak, and overcoming these... I think the Farewell song, Say I matter, or I walked alone will be the best choices... Right?

[@RachelRoseMitchell]

Depends on which aspect you want to focus on. Farewell Song is better for love and heartbreak, Say I Matter is better for heartbreak and especially overcoming. I think I Walked Alone is less good for showing off your voice than the other two, so it's probably not the best choice. But it all comes down to what you think is best :)

[@SpadesNoir]

Hi Rachel, I'm kinda curious. Are you still into Homestuck? You're Homestuck songs are awesome.

[@RachelRoseMitchell]

Hi! Thanks :) I'm not really into it any more though. I got back into it when the ending was coming up but it sort of fizzled out to me, y'know?

[@SpadesNoir]

Oh, I see. Thanks for answering back!

[@RachelRoseMitchell]

No worries :)

[@jessehunter362]

Heckity noice comerade.

[@DragonMaster32200]

For some reason this reminds me of the Zelda games.... I am so weird.
