LYRICS
I started working for her when I was still young
Thought that place could answer things I didn’t know how to ask
I’d chased answers for years something to quiet my mind
And I knew she had the knowledge I sought to find
I had a flaw you lack and that flaw was trust
I wish I'd kicked it out in time and ground it to dust
Things are more than they appear, doors and people too
The veil between faith and folly is easy to fall through
Now I can’t see my own limbs; they fade in and out
And there’s bones where there shouldn’t be
My voice is always being mocked back at me
Except for the times when it speaks before I speak
I don’t have all of who I was, maybe I was a fool
full of so much care for others it twisted me from man to tool
Now I’m just some tragedy that hurts your eyes to perceive
Won’t you come through my door, keep me company?
She was forgetful yet had so much behind her eyes
Knowledge barely contained within her frail frame
I couldn’t tell what it was, but there was a density there
Indiscernible things always crowding her air
I had the feeling if she told me I could not begin to understand
There were times I’d feel ignorant and useless
Feeling she was seeing the world with an added dimension
All I could do was give her all my trust and attention
Now I can’t see my own limbs; they fade in and out
And there’s bones where there shouldn’t be
My voice is always being mocked back at me
Except for the times when it speaks before I speak
I don’t have all of who I was, maybe I was a fool
full of so much care for others it twisted me from man to tool
Now I’m just some tragedy that hurts your eyes to perceive
Won’t you come through my door, keep me company?
We traveled north for a little business trip
To a place with a name that was fake
We shared a glimpse of hallucination or evidence
She gave me a map that made no sense
She said I could stop a great evil
It was the something I’ve become one with
With the map in hand, I stepped into the maze
Of ever-changing colors and no nights or days
Now I can’t see my own limbs; they fade in and out
And there’s bones where there shouldn’t be
My voice is always being mocked back at me
Except for the times when it speaks before I speak
I don’t have all of who I was, maybe I was a fool
full of so much care for others it twisted me from man to tool
Now I’m just some tragedy that hurts your eyes to perceive
Won’t you come through my door, keep me company?
I met the monster and I made it my own
Made these hallways I wandered my new home
Am I too sharp to look at, am I something unknown?
Would you still call your hand a hand if it had so much bone?
Now I can’t see my own limbs; they fade in and out
And there’s bones where there shouldn’t be
My voice is always being mocked back at me
Except for the times when it speaks before I speak
I don’t have all of who I was, maybe I was a fool
full of so much care for others it twisted me from man to tool
Now I’m just some tragedy that hurts your eyes to perceive
Won’t you come through my door, keep me company?
Won’t you come through my door, keep me company? - Hudba
Me: ugh the rhymes aren't where I expect them to be
Me:
Me: ......
Me: ITS THE DISTORTION OF COURSE THEY'RE NOT
Also applies to the number of syllables in each line
I'm desperate to rework the lyrics but it makes too much thematic sense the way it is
@@Queer_Nerd_For_Human_Justice Oki question. How would some part look like? I do not know what right rhymes are
we stan hallway husband
catch me bumping this at 2 am while sobbing over him
😔✊
Well, this comment aged well.
AMAZING!! I love the line "it twisted me from man to tool". It really shows how little gertrude cared for her archival assistants. Quite the contrast to how much jon secretly cares about all his assistants.
I wouldnt say that she didnt care about them, just that they matter to her less than the ending of the world.
@@benjaminjenkins2384 This is such an old comment but i mean,,, they said "how little", not "not". And I don't think this is as much of a questioning of her morality, like, of course the whole world matters more than these few people; it's just that realistically, most people wouldn't do what she did, because our brains are wired to value the people close to us too much to do things like this. As a psych major I think that in order to be capable of using these means for your ends you need to lack empathy on some level. (please read my tone as very lighthearted and friendly i do not mean to like. lecture you i just think shes so interesting)
@@emsitdown9141 Thanks for the tone indication, and yeah, youre right.
gertrude is like utilitarianism but bad
absolute ledge. perfect banger to fit our knife finger king. adding to my tma playlist for continuous jam sessions
I'm 30 sec in but I need to say this, YOUR VOICE IS SO LOVELY?? it's soooo pleasent to listen to and it also fits Michael super well!
AHHHHH thank you!!!!
Enby gang
this has been running through my head whenever there is silence and it’s not okay at this point tysm op
:') im so glad!
i really love all the distorted rippling effects in this...especially that hypnotic multi-layered michael during the chorus
Can I just say I love the way that you did the editing of the vocals? Like it really mimics the way that his voice overlaps in front of when he speaks (there’s no point of trying to explain it, it’s his voice) especially near the end and it really captures it really well!
thank you!!
Dude the left ear right ear thingy you did with the sound is so cool!! Definitely helps the mood
This was my first introduction to the Magnus Archives and several years later and and an entire series binged I'm now a huge fan of the whole thing, thank you so much for introducing to me this fandom!
Crying over Michael at 2am
THE SAME PERSON WHO MADE 'EATING MY COMPUTER' MADE THIS TOO?! I'M SCREAMING
THIS IS AMAZING HOLY SHIT, i never thought of a self aware michael and this is just BRILLIANT, the chorus is so catchy and the drawings / editing matches the tone of the song so well (also ur voice is insanely good), the spiral is my absolute favourite entity and this is AMAZING
It would be cool if the distortion keeps Michael alive but trapped as the distortion so he feels is distorted body while having no control of it
Would work to because it would generate a lot fear
oh mannnnnn this is absolutely wonderful! hits where it hurts... love the art for this too! absolutely captured the vibe
thank you!!
The thing that is Michael that is not Michael that was Micheal that became Michael that doesn't want to be Michael that is Michael and now Michael doesn't exist.
To use dissonance, purposefully breaking harmony is such a difficult and tricky thing to get right.
At first, I was put off, naturally, but then a rhythm came from the lack of rhythm and I just had to losten more closely.
Suffice to say, I'm quite impressed and glad to have found this.
as a michael kin, the chorus at 2:47 nearly sent me into a panic attack
good shit elliot
i assure you this is a good thing
@@turntechgodhead1975 auuuu ok as long as it is Good, thank you!! wishin you the best
@@elliotly you too!!!! lovely song, mr elliot, would kin again
i've been going through your vids after finding out your video about the daisy comments was uploaded here and?? this is SO good omg why is this not so much more popular????
michael is one of my favorite characters and this song and interpretation of him is absolutely WONDERFUL *chef's kiss*
thank you :')
love! the lyrics are so,, well worded.
thank u :')
ahhh I love TMA and this is Great! I love your interpretation of micheal and the distortion in general it is so good and creepy !!
thank you!!!
YOOOO WTHHH HOW IS THIS SO ACTUALLY GODLY
IM VIBING TO THIS SO HARD RN
THE ART IS BEAUTIFUL, THE SINGING IS PERFECT AND THE LYRICS ARE AMAZING
Ive been listening to this song on loop for an hour and now i want to paint all my doirs yellow. Im not even spiral aligned im eye aligned.
I keep coming back to this over and over, it's stuck in my head by now
Of course I would be happy to keep the Distortion company! Seems like a very polite being. Fantastic song!
Love this!!! Micheals story is told perfectly!! You did amazingly!! Your voice is lovely!
this slaps so dang hard
got this song stuck in my head. sang it while walking through a spooky forest. pretty sure I’m super heckin haunted now
Worth it.
Tragic how the ritual wouldn't have worked anyways, so Michael's transformation/death was really unnecessary
Wut why not my guy
@@goldencrazy7925 rituals were revealed to be aneable to actually work. You can perform them but they fail on their own. It comes from the fallacy a world with only 1 fear can exist when all other fears need to co exist for a human to feel proper fear
I love this!!! It’s so catchy and I love the editing/art in the vid
Thank you!
This song absolutely slaps. god i miss fuck hands mc michael 🤧🤧🤧
Hi yeah this is absolutely PHENOMENAL. Gorgeous singing, excellent lyrics, and gave me like 12093820 different feels. Thank you so much for sharing!!
Very haunting
The song sounds delightful! Recorded a short Micheal-esc video to the unknown/too many bones lyrics. Lovely job =)
I don't know shit about The Magnus Archives, but Spotify recommended me this song and it's amazing :)
What a bop
Holy shit the MUSIC!! Whatever you did with the instruments to make them so disorienting is GOLD they fit so well together and to the themes of the song holy shit
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I love Micheal and can't believe someone could make something this good without getting a ton of attention
just finished this episode and I'm in love with this song!
Thank you! :D
beautiful and wonderful !!!
This is REALLY well done! Damn Distortion's got me now because of this song. So thanks for that 😂
I LOVE IT!!!! also i love that without knowing the character the lyrics just sound like some weird metaphor, but if you know the character it just clicks perfectly lol
The beginning of this song always makes me feel weirddd. Like, it gives me a sort-of headache and turning in my stomach, which honestly?? So fitting. Thank you for giving me migraine, i love it :-)
A song about my favourite character?? Who are you and why do you know exactly what I need? Also your voice is so pretty!!! Love that you put so much talent, work and creativity in this! 💖💖
I would love to come into your doors and keep you company
Okay but this is so good??? What a bop!!!!
God I love these more than can be described. That's all
Currently in the most vivid acid trip of my life, off this song rn. It's the bombest thing. I'm literally getting eye hallucinations n shit sitting in 100% pitch blackness. I love it, my skin is melting.
This is so so fuxkin amazing!!!! You deserve so much more likes and love holy fucc!! :00
This is so goood!!! Your voice is amazing!
AHHHHH YOUR MUSIC IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! 💖💖💖 I LOVE THE BACKGROUND HARMONIES!!
OH MY GOD! THIS IS FANTASTIC!! I might genuinely end up listening to this for 3 hours straight-
I'm vibing but also crying, I love this
CHILLS CHILLS MY TINY GERRY KINNIE HEART CANT TAKE IT IM IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG AND THE MAN ITS ABOUT
oh FUCK it's GOOD
this SLAPS SO HARD
This is WAYY too good. 🤩
Micheal is one of my favorite characters and this song is so good! You sing like an angel!

Love your work Elliot, could I cover this and make a Helen version possibly? I’d credit you of course and would probably make my own instrumental
of course!!
@@elliotly thanks hon! do you have somewhere I could contact you about possible collab work if you’re open to that?
m mmmmmmmmmmmMM YES DISTORTIONNN
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
the (at this time) 2 dislikes are gertrude on different accounts
(also only 2 dislikes after almost a year?! wow! people like this song!)
As a Michael kinnie , I may have cried . So well done ! Wonderful , emotionally devastating but wonderful ! Take my love
How did you do the distortion effect on Michael?
hey so like. just hypothetically. could I make an animatic for this? it might just be a partial one but like. the inspiration is Flowing
of course!
