This Is Really Cool! People Usually Forget About Her After The Musicals Over But You Wrote A Whole Song!

Loveee her

*pokes head out*

Okay, so does anyone remember the basically Avatar the Last Airbender renaissance? Where everyone started getting back into it, and there was even a playlist of AtLA musical numbers?

Avatar: The Last Musical

Yeah, Balance helped me get through my thesis when I was near-on breaking down. It gave me sanity for much longer than I would have had without it.

So. Since then, the creator has dropped at least three bangers, Top of my School, Price of Perfection, and Saving Face. They are Great. She's auditioned for Canada's Got Talent and actually made it to the stage (I auditioned for AGT twice and got nowhere close, so the fact that she got that far is astounding and pretty cool).

Now, she's making a short musical film. As per the introduction of their fundraising page:

Hello! We are a team of student filmmakers from Cornell University studying film production, media studies, and performing and media arts. We are currently fundraising for Cornell University film project Silence. Written and directed by award-winning student filmmaker Katherine Lynn-Rose, Silence is a short film that explores familial love, connection, and culture through the lens of a musical film. As a team of BIPOC filmmakers, we hold a deep appreciation for narratives that authentically reflect our lives, experiences, and cultures, and it is our aspiration to bring such stories to light.

Anyways. Fundraising. She needs funds to get there, and they're aiming for 2k. So far, they've got $450.

If you can't donate, can you at least spread this? Absolutely zero shame (cause I think she'd hate that anyways). I just think she's really skilled and think it'd be cool if she and her team gets to make a film. I'd like to see how they communicate their vision.

Anyways, here's the link. Bye!

Knowingly

No one hurts me knowingly And I don't really let them see The scars they leave under my sleeve I guess that's on me, yeah... It was an accident It's just ignorance Didn't mean to do it, do it, no So I let it pass, roll off my back No reason to cry over and over But the tear stains on my pillow Tell me that I don't know how to really let this go

No one hurts me knowingly And I don't really let them see The scars they leave under my sleeve I guess that's on me, yeah...

Well, my broken heart is just collateral damage to someone's selfish tendencies Maybe if I spoke up Tell them I had enough, they'd listen to me But maybe they won't, and maybe they don't - They don't care what they do to me Listen Here

For a song your sub conscious basically wrote, I love it!

The song from my dream that literally woke me up to write them down.

Green Light

If I passed around a bottle on the foyer of the library roof

Could I afford to lose?

Yeah this is what I’m thinking about

 -

Keep reading

I’ve made myself small

Answered every call

Now here are we

Backs against the wall

I was once/am a yes, a people pleaser

“Helping” others I was more than eager

Agreed to everything to my demise

Now all I know I must criticize

I didn’t learn through all the pain

The emotional rollercoasters, the crushing shame,

That me myself I’m way too unselfish

Nothing I have, is anything I own.

I keep the peace that’s all I’m good for,

I can’t explain what I need or what I’m here for

Smile for everyone, and reach out my hands

But in the end, I’m always alone again.

Why do I bother, why can’t I live?

When every choice I make gets twisted to shit?

I drop all my cares, I’m like a stone to a river, living my life only to be disturbed by others.

My own emotions are at the wheel, yet they are held at gun point at every waking moment, smiling and staying quiet out of fear of being a disappointment.

When will it be my turn? Who controls the fight or flight? I’ll stay here, under the water, until the surface is in sight.

I’ve put myself last, just like everyone else.

How am I to know, when I don’t even know myself?

“Some people care too much. I think it’s called love.”

— A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

I like the second verse

I’ll come to you on a lavender breeze

Just close your eyes and you’ll see

When I’m holding you we are clean

And this is more than a dream

I’ll keep stacking up my two cents

Against the bills and the rent

So you can live in more than my head

I can’t wait to see you again

For now we’ll phone

When we should be sleeping

Hold onto hope

That this is the real thing

Oh, you’re my everything.

Yeah, I may have blood on my hands

I may be a broken man

Maybe I don’t know where I stand

But I’m finding home again

Please just let me rest

On the left side of your bed

Yeah, rinse the red from my hands

I love you without end

Oh, for now we’ll phone

When we should be sleeping

Hold onto hope

That this is the real thing

Oh, you’re my everything.

I’ll keep stacking up my two cents

Against the bills and the rent

So you can live in more than my head

I can’t wait to see you again

Please just let me rest

On the left side of your chest

Yeah, rinse the red from my hands

I love you without end

-Sweet Dreams on a Lavender Breeze-

Original lyrics BL

This verse will forever haunt my soul I don’t think I’ll ever write something this good again

I love villain songs

Supervillain

I’ll be your supervillain  I’ll be your bad guy If that’s what helps you sleep at night

Put the blame on me I’ll be your enemy The cause of all your pain and misery

And you’ll tell everybody I turned my back on you But we all know that’s just not true It’s far more complicated This ain’t black and white And I’m drawing a line in the sand tonight

Guilt is your weapon so I’m putting up a shield Won’t apologize for how that makes you feel Listen Here

Thats pretty good for just a silly song about vampires

A silly song a I wrote about Vampires:P

I caught your eyes following a light seeping through somewhere behind me.

A velvatine dream, a skeleton scene, violent dinning, stay the night in Reanne.

Your hair tucked politely behind your ear; A single strand falls and it all turns clear. Within a black fog, a shallow song.

I'll always be your dog.

...

Teeth sharp, striving for a taste. Never have you ever, but I'm not losing faith. A saccharine case, a motive displaced. I see Dhalias sprouting instead of your face.

Midsummer- rotting away with the others.

Fangs against your skin, I restrain myself so I won't be alone. I admire you too much, yet you're scared of my touch.

Murderous urge; shadows taking turns.

Oh how lovely it would be to meet you when the sun begins to rise. Too bad I'll burn.

...

I caught your eye, staring into the night.

Slipping into some narrow hall, shadows fly away.

A fever dream, a polaroid scene. Black and white shades unto the night. Somehow the graveyard feels so bright.

Creatures crawl out from their slumber.

Stake lobotomy, sacrifice another. I see flowers fill the tunnel.

...

Midsommer- rotting away with the others.

Fangs against your skin, you're the only thing that matters.

I think you love too much, yet you're scared of me.

Wouldn't it be grand if we, if I could see.

I want to meet you when the sky begins to turn.

Quite a shame. It's too bad I'll burn.
