[[ NOTES: ]]
Hello, friends! It's been a while since I posted an original song here on CZcams, but here is "Wanderer's Lullaby," a song that I wrote and posted on Tumblr a while back earlier this year. I'm excited to share it with you here now!
I initially wrote this after rewatching a few episodes of Legend Of Korra and being inspired by Korra's self-struggle of not feeling "worthy" enough to live up to her potential in the show. It got me to thinking about how so many of us, including myself, go through the same thing -- we all know the feeling.
Every one of us is kind of an unsure wanderer in our own way, and this is just a reminder that that's completely okay. You'll end up where you need to be. :)
Hope you enjoy, and if you really love it, feel free to support my craft by purchasing the MP3 at Bandcamp by following the link above. Much love. x

Wandering child of the earth
Do you know just how much you're worth?
You have walked this path since your birth
You were destined for more
There are those who'll tell you you're wrong
They will try to to silence your song
But right here is where you belong
So don't search anymore
You are the dawn of a new day that's waking
A masterpiece still in the making
The blue in an ocean of grey
You are right where you need to be
Poised to inspire and to succeed
You'll look back and you'll realize one day
In your eyes there is doubt
As you try to figure it out
But that's not what life is about
So have faith there's a way
Though the world may try to define you
It can't take the light that's inside you
So don't you dare try to hide
Let your fears fade away
You are the dawn of a new day that's waking
A masterpiece still in the making
The blue in an ocean of grey
You are right where you need to be
Poised to inspire and to succeed
You'll look back and you'll realize one day
You are the dawn of a new day that's waking
A masterpiece still in the making
The blue in an ocean of grey
You are right where you need to be
Poised to inspire and to succeed
Soon you'll finally find your own way

I have been looking for a lullaby that embodies what I want to say to my son. Found it. This is something I will sing to him as I rock him to sleep.
I sing it to my daughter, she falls right to sleep when I do.
You go!
Cheeky A, Also check out "You are my Sunshine" and "I don't want to miss a thing"
The best stories are ones that make you think you figured it out on your own... fft..
Me too, I can think of no one but my boys when I hear this song. It can bring tears to my eyes every time because it hits so deeply in just a beautiful way.
I think I found this song when I was 14-15 ish, I'm 19 now. Totally forgot this song existed. At the time I hated myself and wanted nothing but to not exist. I had tried to end it all multiple times and didn't succeed. I never thought I'd ever have a life or be able to find a job, and dropped out to focus on my mental health and get my GED. Now I have a job that is full time with benefits that I love and everyday I'm so glad I stuck around to make it this far. Things do get better and I never thought they would. But they have. Thank you
Something similar happened to me.
I got sexually abused at the age of 10-11 and my life awfully changed.. my school saw me acting strange so they forced me to go to a therapist and I found I had PSTD, depression, an eating disorder and other 3 things. I really wanted to end my life because honestly I didn't find a single meaning to it. It was empty, and I was always so alone it hurt. Everyone hated me just for being alone and I wished to someday have someone by my side.
It's been years since then, and I've found someone who loves me and I love too, we've been together for two years now, and I adore her so much. She has showed me life can be so awful, yet so beautiful and that its worth living. My happiest days has been with her, and all it took was patience. All those tears were worth it❤️
i have experienced sth similar as well and who would have actually thought that life would and can take a turn for the better ? i’m so genuinely glad you’re doing better. i don’t know what to say other than just smile and send all of you love ❤️
What job?
Amazing story! God has a plan for us, He knows each mistake we are gonna make but it's all so that we can have a life and live with Hom again.🙂❤
I have a similar story, When I was 11-12 I was abused by my stepdad he is no longer in my life but if you told me then that this song would get me through that and more I would call you crazy though here I am 16 years old. I’m in recovery for multiple mental illnesses and with the year that it’s been my process has been halted a bit. I didn’t start to go to therapy until last year and even now I’m still struggling it’s been rough so far I have had to move away from everyone I know and love I was help back in school and only two people that were my friends regularly talk to me but I’m learning and I one day have the goal to go back and see them. I also want to produce music and I feel like I am in a midpoint where I may actually be able to achieve that and I’m glad this song could be part of my recovery. Anyone else in this comment section I hope you know that it will get better
" All that is gold does not glitter
Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the frost
From the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows will spring
Renewed shall be blade that was broken
The crownless again shall be king."
J.J.R Tolkien
The Lord of the Rings
Thank you I needed this
I read the beginning as "all that glitters is gold" i need to watch shrek less
I’m lonley

One week and one day ago, I was sitting at my mother's bedside. She was in her last days. While the energy was sapped from her vibrant soul, and as she was in and out of sleep, I remained there ... waiting for two days to just see her eyes open once more, to hear her voice one last time.
I had found this song while searching the web for lullaby's that my son would like to hear at night a month prior. He loved it and it made me think of her. So, as I sat there feeling all the memories of my childhood flood my mind until I didn't think my heart could take it ... I told her about your song and played it on my phone for her. I hadn't heard her speak in so long, but she said, "I'd like that." I heard it oh so clearly. I couldn't fight the smile from my face. We always loved to share music that we found with each other.
A few seconds into the song she said, "It's pretty." I agreed and nodded, happy that I was gifted with hearing that faint voice of hers one more time. I then went quiet for her to listen. Roughly around 30 seconds before the song was over she rolled over to look at me. I saw her eyes. God, nothing was so sweet to me. I smiled and I told her it was okay, she could leave, she didn't have to hold on anymore. I told her, "I love you."
The last of your melody played and she stopped breathing. And I wanted to thank you. Because I couldn't have asked for a better song for her to hear as her last. It's a beautiful song. I'm glad that she enjoyed it too.
Thank you, so very much. It was a gift to hear this song and to share that moment with her.
-Nia Rose
I'm so sorry for your loss! It makes me so sad... I don't have a mother either and I'm only 12... She's alive, just gone... :( I'm glad your mom liked the song. I'm sure she is proud of you and happy where she is... I hope that you remember her. I'm sure she will always love you, aswell, you love her. :)
Your mother’s soul moved on without having to stop anywhere because it had unfinished business. She was able to move on to heaven or her next life, whichever she chose.
Your mom went out like she was a star
Nia Rose ... I'm sorry for your loss... *sniffles* now I'm crying...
That is beautiful, I am glad you got to share such a special moment like that with her, and I am so sorry for your loss
wish some one sang this to me when I was little. maybe I would have wanted to get up in the morning

My 1 year daughter loves this song every night asleep as soon as it reaches the end
5 years ago, my dad played this song in the truck while driving our new dog home from the shelter. He was a very big dog, and stretched out across the entire front seat with his head in my dad's lap. He slept like a baby the whole way home with the summer breeze coming through the windows. Dad played gentle music to make him calm and happy. Early last saturday morning, I played this song for our dog again before he passed away. I loved him very much, and these first few days have been very hard. I feel empty without him, but I know he had a good life, even if his time with us was short. This songs makes me cry now, but it has two very beautiful and bittersweet memories attached to it. A hello, and a goodbye. I will miss you, Cain. Thank you for being my friend.
When I read your comment I wanted to cry, this is such a heartwarming thing to see ❤
I am very sorry for your loss, im sending you all the hugs and comfort you can handle
"I'm not crying, I just have something in my eye!"
"What's in your eye?"
*"TEARS!"*
im crying cause of tears :)

There's a reason this song seems to touch most everyone who listens to it. It speaks to the frightened child within each of us submerged still in every doubt and fear facing a tempest in what must feel like a cracked beaten shack erect from our own insecurities. It's the part of ourselves we try so desperately to hide from the world, lest the world sees and abuses our weakness. And in our desperation and spite we have convinced ourselves, as so did we the world that we are all grown up. Yet we weep, because these words in their simplicity, and infinite gentleness so unrelentingly tear down the mask we present to the world. "I see you", this message says. "And you are beautiful. You are precious. You are worth it. And the storm cannot, will not break you."
this song left me in tears for absolutely no reason

Oh hey lmao
I listen to this song everyday and every night before I go to sleep. I'm diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, depression and have a horrible self esteem, resulting in me in a year round therapeutic day school, but whenever I listen to your lullaby everything seems to get a little bit better. It reminds me that I was born into this world for a reason and I can make a change.
I believe in you Fluffy FatCat. I can't say I feel everything you are, but I understand at least the depression, keep surviving and keep living your life. I hope only the best for you. There are so many good quotes from so many great people, but Hannah Montana is what I'm going with. "Life's what you make it, so let's make it rock"
+Captain Harkness thank you! You have no idea how much that brightened my day.
I suffer from all the same things and do the same. I feel like doing a study to see how therapeutic certain songs are cause this one certainly has a huge effect on people
Don't worry I'm sure one day you're gonna get so much better.
Fluffy FatCat I have the same thing I love listen to this song
I made an entire audience cry with this song. The theme was Coming of Age.
Can you tell me a bit more. Im interested. Really!!
@@safaltagurung5676 it was at a coming of age ceremony at my church and we had to pick a song for the end, so I found this and pitched it to my mom and she cried. She sent it to the event planner, and they cried. Then they played for the congregation, and everyone cried.

i was 13 when i first found this... 10 years later at 23, i still come back ever so often to calm myself with this song :') thank you adrisaurus!
Dude me too! I was 13 when I made this burner account from when I was young. Crazy, were grown now
The more I hear this the more it tears me apart, and yet it also puts me back together again.

Hi guys, just wanted to let you know that even though I can't reply to every single one of your comments, it's incredibly humbling and beautiful to read all of your comments and stories on this song. I'm so happy that so many of you have been touched in some way by this music, and I hope that whatever journey you're undertaking right now is treating you well. Thank you so much. :)
I agree! Fuck you bitch!

i'd assume that you did not read my full comment. par to witch you do you will notice that i was complementing her,
In other words, LEARN TO FUCKEN READ THE WHOLE COMMENT YOU ILLITERATE FUCK BEFORE YOU FUCKEN JUDGE.
i did but seriously your "compliment" seemed very insulting and adriana is amazing.
Finley Atticus She was joking.....
would you ever do sing sweet nightingale from cinderella not one person has done it so would you be the first
I remember when this song first debuted on Adrisaurus’ channel. I was still in highschool, struggling with finding my place and staying sane despite my mom’s mental health problems. It brought me to tears, but gave me hope for a better future because I felt seen.
Nearly two years ago, April 3, 2021, my dog Rosie passed away. She was the light of my life and made all of my struggles easier to deal with, so losing her was a big blow. I stumbled upon this song shortly after we left the vet and played it on repeat until I couldn’t cry anymore.
Tonight, I stumbled upon this song again, and I’ve flooded with memories of how much my younger self endured. It’s taken me so long to get to the stable place I’m at now. I have a new puppy, I’m living independently, and even though there’s still a lot I feel lost about, I’m glad I can continue wandering.
Thank you, Adrisaurus, for being one of the touchstones in my life.
"Even though there's still a lot I feel lost about, I'm glad I can continue wandering"
Damn that hits hard
I'm thirty one, diagnosed with aspergers as a baby, and have taken and given more hell than most could ever imagine. I will, in many, many ways forever be a child, and I'm still learning to be okay with that. I do grow and learn, but my path is so different from most; will never marry or have kids, will never drive, will never thrive in the corporate world, and so much more; that I have to make my own world and rules to simply function right.
I write, but haven't created in so long due to so much. I'm tired. I'm in pain. I want to scream and let all the turmoil out for the world to see. I want to let everyone know how I feel, but I'm enough of an adult that I can keep things okay.
Saying all this, I keep marching to the beat of my own drum. I am slowly, ever so slowly, too slowly, recovering. I feel so far behind in life, comparing my life to where I think I should be, but if I was anywhere else life would have unraveled to the point of self-destruction. I am healthy, as well as my father. We are financially stable. The loser lifestyle others saw me living is now essential, yet all I want is to find routine within the chaos. I'm at a turning point that I'm afraid to meet, because I am comfortable with things. I know that if I write to create, if I go back to my friends and their world and discover what's next and, eventually, release it to the world, I will be judged in a way that will put me in the limelight or dash my dreams entirely, and I do not know which is more frightening. I've lost so much, gained so little, and am scared to make the needed leap that could remold my future.
Dunno why I'm sharing this here, but listening to this song a few times over, after not giving it a thought for quite some time, made me think a bit. Life's strange, and I'm just a kid playing adult for way too long.
Let's see what the next day will bring.
Thank you so much for sharing
My brother has asperges and me and my other brother have autism so you ain’t alone on that
I hope you get the best so all good and beauty in the world , you deserve it after what you have been through.
Just do whatever feels the most comfortable for you and don't care about what others think because you are the most important in your own life...the one you should care about the most
Even though you say you have or achieved so little there's something I admire you for. I do not know you but I admire you for choosing your path carefully and cautiously. I admire that you are open and at peace with your chosen path not only with yourself but also with us here reading your words. I believe that being able to write it all down here is also worth admiration. There's also one thing I am jealous of ... your ability to write and put emotions into words, knowing just the right words to choose. If there's a place where I could read more of your words guide me to it please.
I've been diagnosed with multiple anxiety disorders and clinical depression. Rarely do I want to get up in the morning, death is the only thing I wish for some days. But when I listen to this song, I'm reminded of my mother who works her body to nothing just so I can eat, and I tear up. My mom is the only one who's told me that I can do whatever I want with my life, and I'm extremely grateful for her. She is the only one who can comfort me when I breakdown. Without her, I'd be dead right now honestly. To anyone who is going through hard times and struggling with depression, I hope you know you aren't alone.
Thank you. I feel you. I'm the same thing. You aren't alone either😊😘
You are so strong. You will do great things one day. Just hang in there.
you can do it. don't pay attention to what others think of you. they don't always notice the things about you that you notice
My daughter is going threw this and it kills me to see her crying almost every night because she doesn't wanna wake up in the morning. Im so lost
Thanks for the advice. I also sometimes want to kill myself. BTW I got autism
This inspires me to write something...
Sad, emotional, and long.... I really like songs that rid me of my writers block. And I thank you for that.
I CALL FIRST SIGNED COPY
And same. XD
Then we are three, and i gotta say that seing people feeling the same way i do motivates me even more :D
You're all writing too? Yay, I found my kind of people! ^^
What do you write btw?
Well, I write tons of things- But rather, I enjoy writing emotional, heart-wrenching sci-fi. Basically, the stuff that makes you think. I'm not really sure how in the world to answer your question, since I base all my writings on my mood(s). Also, FANFIIICTIIOON!! :D
I like short dark tales, kind of abstract
This song should be a love letter to all artists right now who are struggling in the current climate.
As someone who grew up with the pressure from society saying that if you don’t accomplish anything in your 20s then you’re basically a failure, this song helped quell the roaring anxiety and self-esteem issues I was (am) going through. When I first came across this song and heard the lyrics I just...felt like a weight was lifted? I was literally frozen, unable to take my eyes off my computer screen, and then tears just started streaming down my face. I thought, finally there was the kind of comfort and support I needed to hear, and thankfully it was in the form of this song. This wonderful piece of music has done so much for me mentally and emotionally, and every time I catch myself feeling lost and inferior I always ALWAYS come back to this song. Truly a beautiful and wonderful piece...❤️
Jesus loves you.
I actually started crying
and I Don't cry Almost at all...
what is this sorcery
I never cry for songs and this brought tears to my eyes
WHATS HAPPENING TO ME
+Jil the Random Jellyfish Girl (2spooky4me) I'm exactly the same way. I've just had a friend come out from an extended hospital stay and moods were pretty grim to say the least. However, this was one of the first things she sent me after coming out and it perfectly sums up how we all felt.
Best tears I've ever shed!
+Rav3nKGM Aw, I hope she'll Be okay!
Hopefully No more trips to the hospital.
me too I only have every cried to this song and the song doll house
I sang this in one of my videos and I was trying not to cry.
I'm not crying I just have something in my eyes...
TEARS!!!!!
+Queen Bee I see what you did there ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Papyrus?
yes
hi papyrus
Sayori? Omg! This song fits you!
I've listened to this song so many nights when I was 14 and crying myself to sleep. Now I'm listening to it and I can't help but cry as I see my 14 year old self so hopeless, sad, lost and alone. I've lost and found many friends over the years, I even managed to cut off my toxic ex best friend I never wanted to lose back then. I wish I could hug my younger me and tell her that everything will be more than okay, and although that is impossible, she will finally find her own way.
Glad you've found your way. Not all who wander are lost
i relate to that a lot, ive also cut off multiple best friends like that, it may be painful but im happier now all these years later and i hope you are too
lost and found many friends like you described, now i can properly say im proud to love my friends, seriously they're such amazing people
but really what i relate the most to is feeling lost, and I still feel it to this day, 14 year old me was just a dumb kid and now im entering adulthood with no direction in life because im failing high school even after all my effort to keep up but the thing keeping me going is music i guess
im sorry if this comment is off putting or weird or anything after 10 months it just spoke to me on a deeper level
I'm gonna animate this song
I sing this song to myself every day, a friend sent it to me and told me it suits me well, but she's wrong
it suits everyone. Everyone is their own wanderer. I believe that everyone has to find their light and protect it - just as I had to
good luck everyone, as we all travel down paths that might be similar or very much different, we'll still walk them together.
Thats exactly what got me here
I know you were trying to be heartfelt and everything but you could've taken a bloody compliment
I look forward to seeing your animation. Please edit your response to include the link when it's ready!
This is the most beautiful comment I've ever read
Is it ready? If so link please😊
One of my friends killed themselves yesterday morning. I've been listening to this song a lot the past day. It's helping me cope a little bit. Thank you.
kota cado I know this is old, but I hope you’re okay. Everything is okay. ❤️
I am so sorry. I hope you've been able to find some peace since then.
Dear Relative, I'm so sorry, I understand what this feels like, please know that your connection is still viable, don't cry K 🦋
Aww I’m sorry..
I'm sorry for ur loss and hope u doing well now
Dear Adriana, though you may or may not stumble upon my comment on this song, I listened to this song in a hard time in my life in which I am trying to adjust living on my own and trying to improve myself...This song made me break down and helped alot with my own personal struggles in life, This is a beautiful peace of work and the lyrics mean alot to me you have great talent don't ever give up this gift of yours...it could save lives someday.

I found this song when I was 13(I'm 21 now) and it brought me out of a really dark place. I would listen to it every time I felt down and it helped me so much. Thank you for giving us this gift.
Yes, I’m the same!
Im 13 rn and I've found this song. Even tho its the first time I've heard this i feel like this is my TRUE comfort song

This is a truly beautiful song. My daughter loves for mommy to sing it to her when she goes to sleep and I love it because it is what I want to be able to tell her as she grows up and encounters struggles in her young life. She's only two and I hope when she's older she'll think of these words and just how much she is loved.
Nikkie Casillas she will carry the song with her as she grows up. 🤗 I used to sing it to my sister as well when she was a baby, and now she’s 8 and when she has bad days she uses it as a reminder. She’ll let me sing it to her on the days that are hard. 💛
I sing this to my kids when ever they ask for a lullaby. I love it for the same reasons.
Sometimes, I wish my journey didn't have to include depression, anxiety, thoughts of suicide, etc. . . . . but I suppose it's all needed to make me who I am today. Who I will be tomorrow. My sadness today will allow me to be happier tomorrow. :)
what a beautiful attitude.. I hope you find what you need and remember more people love you can even imagine. I suffer from bipolar disorder and I feel so much of what you have expressed. Bless you and many happy days ahead.
Jesus loves you.
❤️🌹❤️🌹
I'll be with you on your path to happiness. You have to keep going down that path, no quitting. Have a nice day, night, anything. You can be anything.
If you need to talk, I'm open! 😃
I sung this song at a scholl talent show one time in acapella (no music) and I had my eyes closed. At the end of me singing I opened my eyes and looked into the crowd and so many faces were tear streaked. I thought I was terrible, and thats why they were crying, but then I heard a clap. Then a couple more. And then the whole gym.
This song had gotten me through a lot, and to share it with people i know are sharing those same issues helped me even more.
I had one girl come up to me after most of the people were out of the gym and told me that her mom used to sing it to her before she passed away, and that hearing it from me was like hearing it from her mom again. Needless to say I started crying. She thanked me, and i told her it was okay.
Point being, your doing great. Just stay on the path of light sisters and brother and those of other identities.
As above, as below, as within, as without.
3 years later this still makes me cry
my dad used to sing this to me before he died-thankyou
I'm so sorry. Stay strong no matter how hard it gets! :)
+Alex McCartney Aw, I'm so sorry for your loss xox My father died before I knew of this song, but when I heard it I felt as though he'd be sing these words to me xox
Stay strong friend. Know that even though you don't know us personally, we will always believe in you c: xx My condolences to you and your family!
*crying*
I'm not crying.
That's just emotional dust in my eye, ugh... Seriously

@@samo6401 HAH!
a boy stands at the end of a shore staring out at the sea, lusting for freedom. A woman and a girl walks behind him humming softly. he follows at a distance as the woman starts singing. He slowly weeps and watches as the girl spins in circles in time with the waves crashing against the land. He reaches for the girl as she spins closer. He awakes right as he touches her. His eyes shoot open and and he breathes out a name that is familiar to his tongue yet foreign to his brain. "Ellie." His eyes water in pain as he remembers the way she smiles at him in his dreams and the way she walks towards him. Barely touching the ground. He hums the tune as he goes about his day. Running up and down the stairs, running past the tables. Today's busy and cramped. The ladies are coming up from the shores and welcoming the newer children. As the day comes to an end festivities start. The ladies come singing the tune he has heard his whole life in his dreams. He follows the sound of the lone lady. He stops as she turns and he's stunned. "Ellie." he breathes out in shock. Her smile widens and she spins in circles as her dress flows out. He's stunned into silence and steps toward her as she sings. His finger touches her and he gently latches his hand onto her. He cries with joy as she smiles softly watching him lose his harden composure. -BGM

While some people are thinking about how she sings so well, I'm stuck wondering why this song isn't on the radio at the very least.
Omg I am addicted to your voice! I could listen to you sing the phone book and I would love it.
best comment ever
Why?
+Del Ber because it's true
Crafty Panda how so?
+Del Ber her voice is beautiful and can make anything sound amazing
Y'know, before I played the song, I went to read the comments 'cause that's just what I like to do before I watch/listen to any video. The touching stories had me crying before I even started it, and I was thinking 'once I listen to this, I'll have to leave a nice/happy comment', but after I finished listening to it, I was crying for an entirely different reason. I'm going to add my own story to these comments.
Today makes seven months since I lost my dad. He died three days before Christmas due to a heart attack. I miss him so, so much. When I heard the first few lyrics, I thought of him immediately. For some reason, it just screamed at me that this is so much like him. He was a person that always got along with everybody -he even handed out candy to his co-workers and customers because he was just a person who did small things like that-, he was a jack of all trades kind of person. He always knew what to say if you asked for advice. He was the best dad could I ask for.
My dad was a person of a rare breed, a person who grew up doing it the old way but still knew how to do things the new way because he learned and adjusted to it. He made sure that my sister and I knew the old way of things, and he gave me some of the most valuable lessons in my life. The only thing he wasn't the best at was tech stuff, but that changed as he had to take computer classes for his work.
I loved this song, thank you so much for making it. You're amazing. Thank you.
Looking at the way you described him, he must've been such a beautiful soul and I'm hoping that he found peace wherever he is now and that he is watching over you from there
My mother used to sing this song to me saying she learned it from a wise person she had come across. That was abt 4 years ago and I finally found where she got it. Thank you for an amazing childhood song 💛.
How dare ppl not like this!😦
They cried to much that there eyes blurred and they couldn't see the right button
I want to sing this to my future kids...
I will sing this to my future kids tbh
Me too
I wanted to do that to so I will and I hope that our children will love it and pass it down to theirs
I would really love to hear a current version of this song. Crazy to see how far Adriana's vocal skill has come.
I always wanted to listen to a song that has a sad melody, but inspiring lyrics... I've been listening to this song and humming it every day for the past 2 years and.. I just love this song. Thank you Adriana... 😔✊
I'm not crying.....
*No, seriously I'm not crying.*
Okay, now I'm crying. ಥ_ಥ
I wont hide it... im mourning right now :') and im glad to.
Crap , not me too- ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
Wish more music like this was around these days.
Definately
I hated my childhood. I was abused verbally and emotionally most of the time and ignored the rest of the time. I’m a person whose love language is Words of Affirmation and I constantly feel like I’m running on empty. This song makes me sob uncontrollably.
Used to listen to this on repeat when I was in middle school for comfort. Years later in my shower tonight I suddenly remembered the entire song. Now I’m crying listening to it again :)
I keep listening to this on repeat, it's so peaceful and beautiful sounding *starts swaying in time with the song*
im on my like... 30th playthrough
Holy hell, I forgot I commented on this, four years and I've come back to listen once again
every time I have a fight or I feel down every part of me tells me I'm shit, I'm nothing, I'm worthless...so I hide between the lyrics of this beautiful song and calm myself down until I'm strong again
thank you for making it
Tatiana Soto don't be upsetti have some spargeeti
Yea have some spagett
* hugs you * you are worth so much more than you feel or even know
This is still a song I remember from my teens. I’m 25 now. Thank you for this.
Gosh... I found this seven years late, but I'm glad that I still did...
My name is Justin, I remember this song. Some how I stumbled upon it again...I'm in a bad place in my life right now. Then I heard this, and I smiled...my first real smile in a long time, but I was also crying...sometimes you can't control what happens in your life you can't stop time and say every word you wish to say to the person you love, or take back things said....you can't bring the dead back from their graves or save the life of a man who does want to be saved. Sometimes I think. I think about all the choices I made to get this far,18 is not that far though. I think about all the choices I will make or if I'll make them at all. This world is scary, it is dark and bad and so angry at everything you try to do...but it's also beautiful, it's beautiful and wonderful and full of love and adventure and light and you have to take the dark to get the light. Its not optional it's just a fact and no one will ever be able to change that. I hope I get through this time I hope I don't dwell on it and let it consume me till I'm stuck, and I hope all of you find your way to the real you the one that you know you can be. Seriously I don't care if it's the pope, a serial killer, or a vigilante. Be the best damn pope/serial killer/vigilante you can be as long as your what you want it's fine others may not agree they may kick you and tell you you're wrong, but that's only because they haven't found themselfs yet and that's okay. I just hope everyone gets there. I really truly do. Great song, it's beautiful beyond words and I truly wish you the best in your career. Thank you. And thank out for reading my dumb heartfelt comment.
Makes my depression feel less heavy. Thank you
10 years anniversary of this lullaby.
I just remembered this song existed. An old friend of mine first shared it with me when I was at a really rough point in my life. Throughout all of highschool I struggled with self worth and how I viewed myself. It's been nearly 2 years since I graduated. He shared this with me 5 years ago. It really puts into perspective how far I've come.
I love her voice. It's kinda like a flute. I love flutes.
+Ender agreed
I play flute and I honestly agree
This song always calms me down and its helped me over this year. So I knew I had to play it and say thanks today, because today it's been a year since I've last self harmed, and this song has helped me so many times over this year :o)
I found this song and it's only been 1 month since I did self harm, but I realize that it's not the right thing to do and I'm doing better now. Stay strong Elizabeth, you aren't alone!
When my cat was passing away I sang her this and she loved it. It's been two years since she died and I listen to it every April 4th. Thank you ♥
This song always manages to bring a slight tear to my eye.
I have anxiety, and sometimes I feel like fighting isn't worth it anymore. But then I listen to this song and it inspires me to keep trying, keep working, and never give up. Because I know some day I'll look back and think I learned so much from this time. Because I know that I can, and will, win this fight. Good luck to all of you who are fighting a mental illness right now.
I will sing this song one day to my child. its hauntingly beautiful.
Ive seen many songs that ive told myself i will sing to my future children, but none more than this
I sing to my baby constantly. She seems to fall in love with me, & of course I with her, all over again. But when I'm too tired, this is our go to.
Also, I'm going to learn these lyrics. So lovely & ethereal. 💜
"a masterpiece still in the making" - my absolute favourite part of this extremely beautiful song!!
I imagine Mary as a spirit singing this to sam,and he slightly hearing her while he was sleeping.
that was beautiful thanks for the feels :')
the feels!!
oh okay that struck me in the feels
Mr. McFeely delivers again.
Aaaaaand The Feels decides to stab me in the heart...again.
It's still a great song. I found it when I was 14, and now turning 20, it has a special place in my heart
there aren't many songs like this left that are so beautiful there are tears running down my face at the end . Thank you
This song reminds me of a cool book I read: The Girl Who Could Fly. Like, I just imagine Sebastian telling Piper this in the book.
Love that book!
OMGG I READ THAT BOOK
This song really spoke to me. Out of the 19 years I've been alive, I haven't been in the same place for longer than two years (easy to feel like a wanderer when you can't really call anyplace 'home' I suppose). I don't get along with my family, and more often than not, I find myself alone (not lonely, mind you, but alone). I've always wanted to break free. find my own place to actually call 'home' and pursue my own goals, but it seems like there's always been problems and challenges that are just impossible to overcome without the help of my friends. But again, more often than not, I am alone, so these challenges are just impossible.
But when I hear this song it's like seeing a small light at the end of a long tunnel. It doesn't make the problems disappear or make everything right again, but it does give me a sense of peace. It gives me the feeling that I'm still heading in the right direction to go where I want to be, and that I just shouldn't give up. Over time, I'll reach my goals eventually, even if those goals are large and difficult to achieve. It gives me a feeling of confidence just strong enough to let me relax for a time and enjoy the music before I need to push onward once again. I can't thank you enough for making this beautiful composition. It's just what I needed to hear and I'm glad I found it. :)
11 months ago, I played this to my newborn kitten named Night.
11 months later, I was singing it and she walked up to me and started purring.
She still recognizing the song since I played it almost every day for her for comfort since her mother was aggressive and neglected her.
She's always been my baby. I took care of her when her mother wouldn't.
11 months later, she's pregnant by accident and is going to have kittens.
She loves it when I feel her stomach. I couldn't ask for a better kitty than her.
Thank you Lord for these words that blanket my heart out here in the rainy night , broken and wandering ........
When I hear this I just cry like a baby because it's like someone's finally telling me that everything will be okay.. And I really need that right now. But loneliness hurts yknow. Thanks for writing, your songs are always so beautiful.
Do you mind if I actually get a tattoo of some of the lyrics? This song is helping me through a tough time, and it's beginning to mean a lot to me, so now that idea is coming to mind.
The weary wanderer sleeps, to continue an adventure filled with hope on the next day~
this song always comes to mind in perfect timing... when I need it most
simple and powerful, I think my eyes have something in them, or maybe smoke irritating them? idk
Nice try.
No, it's liquid happiness. I like liquid happiness. Liquid happiness is good.
Same problem here...gotta be the smoke!
Idk I think it's a because I got some dust in my eyes
Nah, the invisible ninjas are cutting onions again!
Sounds like something you'd hear in Steven Universe. Calm, beautiful and raw with human emotion.
you are right :3 totally SU
Kira Suzuki I can see that
Am I the only one who thinks it would fit Adventure Time too?
This song fits into RWBY too
I think this song fit in to the Hobbit & LOTR movies.
9 years later and this is still one of the most meaningful songs to me. I often forget it exists, but it will randomly pop into and get stuck in my head, and I just came back to listen because I was messing around on the piano and ended up remembering/playing/singing this tune. Still remember almost every word
I still cannot stop crying. I have a daughter, approaching 6mo as of writing this and it has been a struggle. She's healthy but the environment has just been so unstable and I feel like a p.o.s mom for things that happened partially out of my control. This song helped get rid of all of the insecurities I have and remind myself while I have this little rainbow dove in my life. I would never change a thing in the world now because she is just so happy all the time and it just solidifies that I'm doing my best to provide for her, my husband (father) and I both. Things are slowly look up for us and we just hope that we can keep providing for her.
Thank you for making this song a decade ago. It is amazing and it touches a lot of people that I don't think your past self would have imagined. Keep doing what you're doing Adriana.
The child born from dusk bathed in light....
These are YOUR lyrics?! They are beautiful and delicate and strong all together. You have real, natural born talent my girl!
I was trying to remember what lullaby's my mother sang to me but couldn't remember any. I'm almost 60. This song came up on feed and I've played it about 25 times already and shared it. I know without a doubt it was sent by my mother and God to me. It answered all the questions I've been asking in my mind lately. Thank you for writing such a beautiful song.
I still can't believe you uploaded this (coincidently) on my birthday. This 2020 is my eighteenth birthday and I want to have this song played in my 18 roses (hopefully). Love this btw since it was first uploaded till forever.
I’m just a year younger than you, my b-day is April 8 as well, this is weird.
Listened to this while I went through a depression with no one to run to for comfort because they were already stressed with others so I was taught self-reliance. But Jesus saved me and helped me every step of the way and he had worked through you and your voice. God bless.
Winged Slayer
Im so glad you could find peace in our savior!
Winged Slayer Sim
That’s a beautiful testimony.
Thank you for sharing, brother. God bless you so much.
Amen! 💖
thank you for this song.I get sleep paralysis, but this song helps me sleep more peacefully.I haven't had an episode in ages.so glad I found this
has it really been these many years? and I'm still here. wow
i just rediscovered this after 6 years ^.^
I'm writing a fantasy series at only 14 years old and there's these two characters, a father and daughter, who had been separated but finally after years, finally they are united. There's this one scene where the daughter needs to sleep (she has powers that only work in her sleep) and her father signs a lullaby for her. I want to write my own lullaby so I am currently studying others and this song hit me deeply. It’s so beautiful and I can see the father signing this.
QUICK SOMEONE MAKE HER FAMOUS!!!!
heh
I'm in a really bad place right now. A terrible, horrible pit of black despair and cruelty, where no one really can relate to me. Every piece of motivational advice, every therapist, even cutting myself, nothing has really helped me. My friend just shared this song with me, and... It's the first time I cried, not in agony, but in true happiness. Thank you, this really touched my heart in a way I didn't think my heart could be touched any more.
This takes me to a memory I haven’t made yet it’s beautiful
I’m so afraid of what people think of me so I hardly say anything when on a livestream and it’s gets me so angry when people assume that I’m just like everyone else, instead of getting to know me. This song cheers me up and encourages me to just be myself
Have you ever wanted to escape the life you have? Like you've wanted to just leave and live in your favorite book or movie world and stay there forever? Yeah, that's me. I wish i could go live in my favorite movie and not have to deal with this life. I know that sound cowardice but i mean it with all my heart. Maybe i am a coward but i'm a writer and i love reading so i find my escape there from my stupid life. I just wish and wish and wish i could leave and go live in that movie. I don't know if there's anyone else out there like me but that's okay, most people attempt to not do anything i do, considering i'm a freak in there eyes. Have you ever felt the way i have? Its completely okay if you haven't but i just ponder for days on end if there is anyone out there who have wanted to escape like i do.
I totally understand what you're saying. I'm going through the same thing. I'm glad someone else knows what I'm going through, too. :')
I understand what you're saying . And i don't think it's a bad thing , you know ? You are not like other people , you are special . Because you have lived in a lot of worlds and enjoyed a lot of adventures while other people only lived in this world . I fully understand because i'm a reader too .
I understand. I've gone through it, you learn to ignore them. Stay strong, there are others like you.
Have an amazing day! :3
I completely agree. Sometimes for me it gets to the point where I feel like some one Is calling me away from this world to save another. I'm with you
Aye men to that.
This song directly spoke into my life. I was listening to a playlist as I was working. I started to talk to God and I asked him am I where I need to be? Is this what am I supposed to be doing? This song made my cry I had to stop working and comment... so thank you. God has blessed you with a beautiful talent continue to bless others with it.
I cried without making noise it was just tears falling down my face
This soothes my baby sleep like no other song and I hope the words stay with him forever. Beautiful
