This is a song about not wanting to let go of something that I knew I had to release.
Letting go can sometimes be difficult even when you know that you will feel better in the end.
Let Me Down
Falling out of love is the hardest part
I failed you trying to be someone that I know I'm not
I knew as I waited
We were fading
If you say that you're in love you should put me up above, but you just knock me down
And If you say that you're in love you should hold me up above, but you don't
You just knock me down
Falling out of love is the hardest part
Fading in and out of something I know is wrong
Crazy for waiting
I'm still waiting
If you say that you're in love you should put me up above, but you just knock me down
And If you say that you're in love you should hold me up above, but you don't
You say that you're in love, but I know you're not
And I'm still waiting for you to give me more than just another day
Waiting, but you only let me down
If you say that you're in love you should put me up above, but you just knock me down
And if you say that you're in love you should hold me high enough, but you just watch me drown
And when you said our worlds were one I thought that would be enough, now I know it's not
And if you say that you're in love you should put me up above, but you just
Knock me down
You watch me drown
You let me down
Don't let me down
@isaria
Beautiful. I like the vocals. Mixed with the piano, it reminds me a lot of Evanescence.

I am utterly speechless. When someone can make a song so relatably chilling and resonate within my music soul, it brings me to a deeper dimension of self reflection. Thank you so much for sharing with us such a beautiful song. Although it may be an old piece as you say, it is forever constantly impacting and powerfully inspiring. Your ghastly somberly smooth vocals with the suspensefully momentum building piano runs are a ridiculously amazing combo. One of the best original entries, I always show respect and love to other original artists/musicians, you did wonderful this week. Do you have a professional recording of this perhaps?
Big upvote and acknowledgement, have to put this one on repeat, this post deserves minimum of a 100 steem.

Thank you so very much for this comment. I was feeling very sad before I read this, feeling like I was sharing my music, my heart with people, but I felt like it was all for nothing.
Seeing your comment and how this song affected you made me realize again why I share what I do.
Your comment is worth more to me than 100 steem, so thank you so much for that.
You have helped me more than you realize.
Many blessings to you.
Here is the recording of the song for you:

Thank you very much for the high quality professional recording, I appreciate that. I now have it on a repeat. I am glad to have given you that inner reminder of why we both do music, we never know who is listening to our music, we know the power of our words and how we perform them, but unless someone reacts outwardly and not just internally, it is easy to slide into a distant realm of indifference and uncertainty. I look forward to hearing more of your music, and it isn't all for nothing, I too sometimes feel the same, until I am reminded again what a difference I have made in someone's life.
A song's impression and effect can be fleeting and temporary, or long lasting and deeply embedded into the mind heart and soul, your music is of the latter. Keep creating, sharing and putting forth your artwork. Only good will come of it.

I'm actually saving what you've said here as a reminder for when I'm feeling down. Thank you so very much for your positive and inspiring words, it has really meant a lot to me. <3
I haven't even had a chance to listen to your music yet. I'm going to listen later tonight, I look forward to hearing it!

You're very welcome, that is wonderful to hear, feel free to read it whenever you need that extra positive reinforcing boost. I look forward to your feedback on my music, I do mainly R&B/Soul and Hip Hop and experiment with other genres often when I am producing or composing, I'll be checking out more of your other songs when I get the chance

R&B/Soul was some of my biggest influences when I was little, although you can't hear it in my music now. lol
I just posted my performance of a classical piece. I recorded it at work with my phone so the sound quality isn't great. I made the video look kind of like an old movie to match the sound quality!
I mentioned in my other comment that your recent songs wouldn't play when I tried to listen, I'll scroll down on your page and try some others. :-)

Thanks for trying, I am sorry for the delay, but I'll open them back up again soon, but I gave you a youtube link to my profile there, I have many many live performances, which I always aim to improve, I will let you know when I have more professional tracks released soon :) I will definitely check out the classical piece, I also make beats and compose and produce, those are all open and not privatised on Soundcloud or Steemit

Thank you so much, I will definitely keep entering.
It's a wonderful goal to have every week to perform for open mic, but I really never thought I would actually win!
I'm so thankful!

Well I must admit, you'll soon discover that I am one of the official judges but let me make it clear, you Earned that win, and weren't given anything. You are beyond welcome, can't wait for more entries. I also participate every week, I have never missed any week of the open mic besides the very first one cause I didn't know about it, the music community here on Steemit is truly amazing, and I am so glad to be apart of it. Hope that Steem gives you a nice well deserved treat. I'm aiming for more recording music equipment with mine :)

Thank you and that's great that you're a judge now! Our Steemit Musical Community is wonderful, so many talented people! I haven't missed a week either, but I'm running late on this week's one, I'm going to record something on Thursday.
More music equipment is always a great thing, I hope you get something really nice!
And hey, I tried to listen to a couple of your songs and this message came up on Soundcloud:
This track was not found. Maybe it has been removed.

Sorry it took me so long to listen, I had a presentation for work yesterday and I was working on it all week. I didn't even have time to record an open mic!!!
But, I'll definitely record one for next week.

It's a Kawai Mp6. It doesn't have any bells and whistles, but it felt the most like a real piano when I tested some out. It's not very good for gigging though.
Too damn heavy lol
