I feel like all of these songs interweave with one another, telling different stages of the same story. Maybe a story about a woman who lives in a world very different to ours, darker and less hopeful. Other people have long ago given up on love and light. She is the last one to cling to anything good and whole. This woman, who once danced along a path so dark she could hear whispers by her heels as a child, is terrified of falling, because she knows what is waiting down there for her when she does. Onto the next song! :D
@@Karliene I wish I had your skill in writing lyrics! :D your words are so beautiful, and I am stuck trying to write a simple ballad for a story, haha. To be honest, I don't think I've listened to a song of yours I don't like! I wonder, have you ever considered doing a cover of In The Bleak Midwinter?
One italian poetist once said, that poetry always tells the life of the artist, capturing the essence of the time he lifed in. Maybe it is a never ending story of songs that show the shifting of her feelings as time goes on, connected, yet still different.
I love how the tempo changes to be almost like a heartbeat during that verse! It's attention to small details like that which makes your music so amazing!
I love this song, but I hate how relatable it is. This perfectly encapsulates the feeling of being in love, but struggling through a deep depression. Desperate to hold on to the one thing that provides some light in the endless sea of darkness.
You, Erutan, Ashley Serena, and Heather Dale all have beautiful voices, and I find myself always coming back to your songs when my depression hits hard, and strangely I get comfort from them. Like a strange calming sensation
A woman waiting at her window for another letter from her husband. He's been gone to war for months and he hasn't written in weeks. She waits for years with nothing except for their children and pictures. She prays everyday and begs for an answer that will not come. In my minds movie screen it happens as a time lapse and she slowly gets older and older, just waiting. Sorry that was so long, your songs help my writer's block 😅
my beloved sister you always bring joy to my soul and my daughters life’s. now in this darkness times when we are scare and feel overwhelmed you Karliene have been our light because your voice is a gift from god and that gift is a majestic one that with each song your magnificent music voice and lyrics transmit all your passion your love your energy your heart and soul is with in. and we are thankful for you we pray for you and your family so god can keep them safe healthy and blessed. we thank god for your existence for your birth because that day a magnificent majestic star was born. happy mums day to your mum and all the mums in the world. here in las vegas nevada 🇺🇸 you have 3 admirers fans that have adopted you as part of our family. hopefully soon all starts to get back to normal and we can meet in one of your concerts. blessed be my beautiful sister
I finished reading The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell yesterday and this song could have been written for it......this is beautiful work, Karliene xx
I don't know how to explain, your song "Disappear" moved me in a deep way and made me think about someone that i love very much who i want to meet again who is a thousand miles away from me in Finland. I wish to tell him how happy hes made me with his music since i was 12 years old and how it has connected me on a deep level even though i'm not in a relationship with anyone just yet. I know he (Ville Valo) has gotten many feedback like that and my dad probably told him when me and my dad met him, although i wanted to tell Ville myself and tell him my life's story, I didn't get a chance. Anyway, this is again a beautiful song :)
A yellow rose, petals falling The wind delicately places Torn, scratched pieces of sun Upon still black water. Watching, green flakes of fireflies Hover in solace, in shame. Crying out in silence - A shadow of a different world. Swallowing the shard of light Dark hands pry to the surface Pulling with scarred, cracked fingers Towards a dull nonexistence Lips whisper incongruent sounds Scenes unseen play dimly Winter frosts the smooth sun, Wrapping it in still silence. Dew dives from the steady stem, Wishing only for renewed oneness. Words drip from its leaves Falling flat into the barrier of black. Singing a beautiful dream To the speckled dirt it loved: Sacred home of stardust and eternity, Memories fading into the dark. Living a recycled nightmare The petal closed its eyes Listening to the licking of flames Through the echoes of emptiness The edges of darkness Breathed a false apology - sinking to the petal below it Hollowing its frozen threads Murmuring one last note, Settling upon the flicker of light The once-rose softly smiles returning to everlasting silence
Beautiful and heartbreaking. Like someone who has depression singing to their loved one to not give up on them because they're all they have left of hope. Or someone clinging to a dying loved one begging them not to leave them. A song of full of emotion
Elle est vraiment jolie. Mélancolique à souhait avec ce merveilleux violoncelle. Je l’adore. ❤️ Félicitation aussi à l’artiste qui a réalisé le travail graphique. Merci!
I love Nick Cave's music so much and 'Where The Wild Roses Go' is such a delicious gem of a song. He is a master songwriter. I'm so grateful for the lovely compliment. Thank you. 🖤
This is haunting and beautiful from start to finish, but what you do from 2:50 - 3:30 seems truly inspired. Your piano continues its same metre but your voice and Roxane’s cello holds the lyrics and melody notes long. It is an amazingly beautiful and dramatic variation.
How in the world are you able to sing this song without balling your eyes out? I can only sing to about half the song then i start to cry and cant stop.
Karliene, your music has always been so amazing and beautiful to me. And this album is one of the best so far. It's such a brave thing- to write music that speaks to a topic so many people don't want to think about. I love all of these songs, but this one is my favorite- it resonates so deeply with feelings I've struggled with for years. Sometimes it does feel like I've disappeared, I feel so alone. This song so gorgeously speaks to that without trying to make it all better. Thank you
You know, Karliene, I just thought you might have the perfect voice/tone to cover Old Captain (Brillig) This song is really beautiful, (albeit a bit gloomy) and that's what made me think of it. nevertheless, keep up the good work, you're amazing!
A hauting melody, the words sending shivers down my spine, ugly memories of things I did to my beloved ones rise up again. I don't know whether I ever can stand hearing this song again, but it's plain beautiful and moving. One more reason to buy your music, this is touching in the best and in the most uncomfortable sense. Masterpiece. Yet another one from you, Karliene. You stir up my life and my soul, and your inspiration astaunds me again and again. Thumbs up, I bow my head.
Pure perfection. I just love the storytelling of your lyrics. This will be on repeat while I craft . Thank you for a moment of peace during this stressful time
((Just had to write something to this.)) Tears long since washed away by the ink that stains my fingers from all those letters written then burned, never needing to be sent as the flames encroached upon the awaiting parchment. Even as I then tried to paint with the colors of my mind, it only became a dull picture of where I last saw you. Must I continue to take a fleeting glance out the window to spot nothing but the over grown grass that used to gain your attention so frequently, the gardens long since wild with the eternal absence of your fingers. How long must I wait, for I fear my body cannot wait much longer for you to return to me, as it may soon crumble and waste away like the horrible cookies we once tried to bake and fail. But even as the stars of our fulfilling nights together fade I still gather the memories like old cards to once again bring life to them, despite being unable to feed them the spark you once caused with but a single touch. May you find your way through weeping poppies and silent trumpet symphonies, may you once again step foot upon my doorstep and breathe life into my world. Spread it like fire, color it like vibrant paint, tend to it like the forestry of our garden, perfect it and most of all create that old and fleeting spark, just so I can gaze upon that smile once more.
I’ve never left a comment on a video before but I feel compelled to tell you how breathtakingly beautiful this song is. Thank you for blessing my day with this!
Your voice really helps me concentrate, I'm listening to your songs all the time, but especially when I write an essay for school. Thank you for your great songs!
I have my headphones in and I think I hear your footpedals. Really cool. I've never noticed it when listening to music with pianos, might just be because it's easier for me to hear higher pitched sounds.
Beautiful! Thank you for working with Complete Me - Lucid Dreams, their work is so beautiful and so relatable, just like your music! Best wishes and rooting for you!
This is my new favorite song of yours! So haunting and beautiful. Everything is just interwoven so perfectly and it carried me away. The lyrics ring so true of many things and strike a chord deep. Thank you for another amazing song! ❤️
I have chills. I’m genuinely shaking. This called out to me in a way I’m still not sure I understand. Would it be possible to upload just the music track for this? I would love to sing this in my school’s upcoming talent show!!!
@@Karliene is it available on CD? I don't have a thing in my car that lets me play from streaming devices, but when I replace my CD player I'd love to have that
In the gloom. The grey lady lurks. Widowed without a widower, she sees him, there waiting out beyond the gates. But this house holds her. This gloom binds her. She cannot leave, but she and her love will not stop trying. He will not give up. He cannot. The lights have since gone out, the night has yet ended. Nothing but the gloom. The grey. And her. The grey lady. She who lurks in the gloom, forever bound to it.
I grew tried of lover idea... What if this for brother/Sister love (not incest) Like a sibling is forced away from the family, the other left alone, wanting the other, as they were best friends and the only real family.. as their parents suck..I get a 1800s feel..
This so perfectly encapsulates what its like to love someone when you have depression. It speaks to me at the core of my being.
Completely understand that, x
Been there, done that. Unrequitted, but still. Having someone I wanted to be there for helped me keep going.
Manic depression and military etc..thank you for expressing it thus way. Bless you love.
You are not alone.

It is very much the same story. It's the way I often like to write EP's and albums. I'm glad you like it.

A beautiful way to put or explain it. That fits just right 😉
That woman sounds like me.
I love how the tempo changes to be almost like a heartbeat during that verse! It's attention to small details like that which makes your music so amazing!
Thank you, I love that you picked up on those fine details. 🖤
What if your heart beat changes so that it is in tune with the verse

Don't apologise, that was beautiful. x
I wish it was longer.
Beginning of a beautiful story...want more!
@@Gala666-o I wish the story AND the song was longer!!!!!
Writer's block? That means you are a writer. I'm a reader, any way I can enjoy your works?
This song gives me strong Evanescence: the open door vibes and I am ALL FOR IT
The voice, music, and artwork are all gorgeous. The Gloom is spooktacular. I'm glad it's finally out.
Once again, big congrats!
Thank you so much. It always feels fantastic to wrap up and release a project. I'm so happy you're enjoying it. 🖤
Oh lord. "my candle in the gloom"... that's what you are to me right now, Karliene.. this song is great 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much. I'm so happy you're enjoying the new song and I hope you like the full EP 🖤
@@Karliene if that one is even half as good as the rest of the EP it's likely
literal tears streaming down my face. this song speaks to the depth of my soul...…….

Beautiful 💚 I love those dark vibes and the cello is so lovely...
Thank you so much. Roxane's cello is sublime. She really made this whole EP beautiful 🖤
I finished reading The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell yesterday and this song could have been written for it......this is beautiful work, Karliene xx
Thank you so much. I'm really touched and thrilled you like it. x
This feels like a song that connects to Anders and his anxiety around his relationship with Hawke
What are u talking abt?
@@arcaneslament1305 Dragon Age 2
Oooooh you are so right! It fits quite well. I can't unthink it now.... it's making me sad 😢
So nice to find a Dragon Age comment here 😁
Now I'm hurt thinking about Anders again
I feel like it's perfect piece for introvert and their breakups
Ah yes, very much so!
I don't know how to explain, your song "Disappear" moved me in a deep way and made me think about someone that i love very much who i want to meet again who is a thousand miles away from me in Finland.

A yellow rose, petals falling
The wind delicately places
Torn, scratched pieces of sun
Upon still black water.
Watching, green flakes of fireflies
Hover in solace, in shame.
Crying out in silence -
A shadow of a different world.
Swallowing the shard of light
Dark hands pry to the surface
Pulling with scarred, cracked fingers
Towards a dull nonexistence
Lips whisper incongruent sounds
Scenes unseen play dimly
Winter frosts the smooth sun,
Wrapping it in still silence.
Dew dives from the steady stem,
Wishing only for renewed oneness.
Words drip from its leaves
Falling flat into the barrier of black.
Singing a beautiful dream
To the speckled dirt it loved:
Sacred home of stardust and eternity,
Memories fading into the dark.
Living a recycled nightmare
The petal closed its eyes
Listening to the licking of flames
Through the echoes of emptiness
The edges of darkness
Breathed a false apology -
sinking to the petal below it
Hollowing its frozen threads
Murmuring one last note,
Settling upon the flicker of light
The once-rose softly smiles
returning to everlasting silence
My tears are flowing from this such sad words that brings me my saddest memories.
Bravo. BRAVO! 😭😭😭
I love this whole set of songs. Chef's kiss 🤌🏻
This small album you’ve created reminds me of a character I’ve created long ago and wrote a book about her story .
Is like listening to her lament*
Beautiful and heartbreaking. Like someone who has depression singing to their loved one to not give up on them because they're all they have left of hope. Or someone clinging to a dying loved one begging them not to leave them. A song of full of emotion
I love this, even in a gloomy time hearing your voice is calming and reassuring. thank you

Félicitation aussi à l’artiste qui a réalisé le travail graphique.
Merci!
Fandom francais ;3
Beautiful. I got a little Kylie Minogue and Nick Cave vibes while listening to it. Amazing voice!!
I love Nick Cave's music so much and 'Where The Wild Roses Go' is such a delicious gem of a song. He is a master songwriter.

You know, Karliene, I just thought you might have the perfect voice/tone to cover Old Captain (Brillig)
This song is really beautiful, (albeit a bit gloomy) and that's what made me think of it.
nevertheless, keep up the good work, you're amazing!
An absolutely amazing song. Just beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful and brilliant thank you ❤
Only discovered your music recently. But oh my! This is stunningly hauntingly honestly beautiful. Cannot stop listening. 🖤
Absolutely flawlessly beautiful and mesmerizing performance!!! Amazing as always Karliene 💐👍💞🎵🎶

Nothing you should listen to if you are fighting with dark moods or depression.... but its so so beautiful and emotional😥
Beautiful music....just sooo sad....😥😥😥😥
It's an exceptional song with magnificent music ! Take care ;)
In my opinion this is the best song you have made yet. Can't wait to hear more in the future.
I just love this song so much. I really, REALLY want to find sheet music for it, it's absolutely stunning. I want to play it so bad 😢
What an amazing song ❤️❤️
I've been listening to these new songs on repeat. Thank you so much for new music, Karliene!
This song makes me cry so much..😭thank you so much for this divine song!
I love you forever!🤍
Most beautiful melody I have heard in a long time.

Sooo beautiful song and words, you are magical soul.
This is so beutiful ..at a loss for words .Thank you ~♡
Goosebumps...
Another beautiful work of art!
Such a beautiful song!
So hauntingly beautiful.
I like this. It gives me vibes similar to Blackbriar. Ever thought of doing a collaboration with Zora?
wonderful
Beautiful and haunting
So beautifully sad and loving and scared.... ♡♡♡♡

I'm so glad you like this one. Thank you

Lovely. It's so Gothic.
This is so beautiful and sad....

Hauntingly beautiful. Found it on Spotify, but why doesn't it give the option to follow you?
Oh that's strange. I'm not too familiar with Spotify as I'm always on Apple Music but I'll see if I can figure that out and get it fixed.

She cannot leave, but she and her love will not stop trying. He will not give up. He cannot. The lights have since gone out, the night has yet ended. Nothing but the gloom. The grey. And her. The grey lady. She who lurks in the gloom, forever bound to it.
Loneliness is something we all face no matter what it is for I say unto you truly we must face our own Darkness, no matter what....
