Do They Whisper?

Written: April 9th, 2024

Genre: Alt-pop or something unhinged like EDM 😂 ( I can't tell whether I'm being serious or not... We'll see when I test out sounds for the demo )

I wrote this while anxiously worrying and songwriting is how I cope, so I put my thoughts into lyrics. If the title sounds familiar, shush, it totally does not. As if I stole the title from my friend's username, nuh uh. In all seriousness, this song is about everything and everyone. It's about the past, present and future. Loved ones and opposite of loved ones; lovers and haters. There's so much hidden within the lyrics, it'd take eternity to pinpoint everything. Maybe I will someday, but it's currently 4 am and I haven't replied to most of my notifs yet.

1ST VERSE:

Calm down, tame these thoughts

I've tried, but I cannot

Don't know where I go wrong

Clogged headspace, I didn't mean to make you wait

Tick tock, I bashed the clock, numbers, and time

I don't know why, but the alarm in my head will strut and chime

No, I don't know why, I don't know why

But I swear I try, I swear I try

CHORUS:

Do they whisper about me?

Tell me, at least do they reminisce fondly?

Or will they shoot deadly glares

Pretend I'm not there

Scream and swear, no, I'm not there

Whisper relentless until the whispers are everywhere

And they're not whispers no more

Cause they cut right to the core

And dared to deplore

2ND VERSE:

Lately everything is changing and I'm scared

Life merely revolves around wear and tear

I'm weak, there's only so much I can bare

Anxious about everything, comfort is rare

There's so much I fear, as if danger is near

And my secrets are missiles that blow up

Once exposed, soon enough they'll all know

Soon enough I'll be someone you loathe

CHORUS:

Do they whisper about me?

Tell me, at least do they reminisce fondly?

Or will they shoot deadly glares

Pretend I'm not there

Scream and swear, no, I'm not there

Whisper relentless until the whispers are everywhere

And they're not whispers no more

Cause they cut right to the core

And dared to deplore

BRIDGE:

Quite a shame, I could've had potential

But I walked down the wrong road

And blocked out all moral conduct

And let every shred of sanity go

Out in the loose, right into every 'I love you'

But you don't love me no more, no you don't

I've lost you, yeah, I've lost you

But I love you, I really love you

CHORUS:

Do they whisper about me?

Tell me, at least do they reminisce fondly?

Or will they shoot deadly glares

Pretend I'm not there

Scream and swear, no, I'm not there

Whisper relentless until the whispers are everywhere

And they're not whispers no more

Cause they cut right to the core

And dared to deplore

( BONUS 3RD VERSE:)

And when I was young, little white lies were fun

But now I'm left glum on who I've become

I'm not what they expect, the truth is so direct

I bet they'll file every expense

And every single detriment

Do you view me through a rose colored lens?

I can't be who you wish I could be

And for that, I'm sorry

( BONUS CHORUS/OUTRO)

The whispers aren't whispers no more

Cause they cut right to the core

And dared to deplore
