Stay With Me (An Asriel Fansong)

  • I felt like an emotional song was needed for Asriel. Asriel has such a chilling, horrific, and genuinely sad story from beginning to end. The way he's delusional at some points, wanting to believe that Frisk is Chara, no matter what, is so off-putting and emotional, I just had to put it into words. I hope you guys like this one, I think it's one of my most emotion-filled songs to date!
    Art is by me!

    This is just my own view but I see the Red as Chara singing. Idk for some reason my brain just likes that idea. Btw, I like how chara isn't necessarily shown to be a bad sibling they just weren't the greatest. Still, the tale of these two are sad. Both in one way or another refusing to die. Just like us the Fandom 7 years later and we still refuse to die. It's poetic really.

    I really like the line “so my hatred proceeds farther than memories,” since it feels like a reference to the fact that Asriel’s last days of having emotion were likely spent in sadness and grief over Chara, only for his last moments to be spent being ruthlessly attacked despite doing nothing wrong, and his inaction resulting in his death, leading to his “kill or be killed” view on the world. I can’t help but wonder if this lack of any positive emotions in his last days as his old self had anything to do with why Flowey became the way he is, especially since Flowey seems to change for the better after getting new positive memories in the pacifist route.

      Also take into account that the Determination used to create Flowey was extracted from 6 children using a terrifying machine. Children able to re-fuse death, all of whom got tired of dying.

    This made me cry a little. I never really saw Chara as evil and I think that Chara genuinely loved Asriel as a friend and sibling. Asriel really just wanted to see Chara again but Frisk helped Asriel see that Chara has been gone for ages and won’t come back (in canon at least.), wonderful work with this.

    The progression of this song is amazing! The way the intensity builds and builds before finally peaking with Asriel pleading "STAY WITH ME" over and over again, ESPECIALLY with the God of Hyperdeath's final verse...it reminds me of the very special version of His Theme that plays when you SAVE Asriel. That's the song that got me into Undertale in the first place.

    It turns out that my cat loves when I sing to her - but specifically your songs. She makes it abundantly clear when she doesn’t like a song, by putting as much distance as she can between us, so I have reason to believe that this isn’t a coincidence.
    I was sitting on my bed recording myself singing a Good Omens song (I have so much brainrot) and figured since I was all warmed up I might as well practice Stay With Me, because it’s hard to memorize in particular.
    My cat, Miku, had been sitting on my bed minding her own business this entire time, but the second I started singing this song, she got up and started rubbing against me, circling around me, and occasionally jumping on my shoulder. I got up to better project for the chorus, and she followed me, rubbing against my feet and occasionally trying to jump up.
    She settled down after I was done, and I tested later by singing a bit of one of your other songs. The affection started again.
    So.. your music has my cat’s stamp of approval! She’s a very particular kitty, so I think it’s no small achievement. But take this as you will.

    It seems like the verses after the first "Stay with me" chorus up until the red ends might be Chara singing back to Asriel. Am I wrong? It just really struck me that way.
    Honestly words can't express how much I love this song and the sibling relationship between Chara and Asriel, it's so messed-up, and sad, and horrific, and heartbreaking. Chara let their hatred take over and convinced Asriel to go along with it, and by the time they were reincarnated, and if a pacifist run is done and they see what happened to their best friend because of them, it's all over.
    See, that's why I love the line, "Chara wasn't really the greaest person." Because it's not so much about Chara as it is about Asriel. For his whole life as a flower, he blamed himself for not fighting back against the humans, put Chara on a pedestal in his brain. But now he's learned no, he was right and Chara was wrong. But he still cares about Chara, very much, even they weren't the greatest person.
    It's just all very sad but in all my fanfics I give them a happy ending and time to recover and for Chara to apologize T-T
    Beautiful work as always, Evifresh, your songs just keep getting better and better, it's pure genius I swear.

    • @DizzyThePop
      @DizzyThePop 11 месяцев назад +10

      This is how I perceive Chara. Often, people tend to categorize Chara as either entirely evil or completely innocent, but the truth lies in between. Chara, a child likely scarred by humanity's cruelty (perhaps due to abuse), harbored a mix of hatred for humans, and genuine love for Asriel and the Dreemurrs. Their intention was to liberate Monsterkind, yet their actions were impulsive and thoughtless. In their broken state, Chara let hatred guide their final moments, making questionable decisions like carrying their body to the surface to reveal humanity's nature to Asriel-a move that, in hindsight, seems misguided. Despite the opportunity to reconsider upon noticing Asriel's hesitancy of the plan from the beginning, Chara pressed on. In essence, Chara was a troubled child seeking retribution against those who hurt them while also aiming to aid their family.
      This is why I like Chara as a 'chara'cter (haha) they are complex and made frankly, terrible decisions that got both them and Asriel killed.

    I don’t connect as much to Asriel as other people do, so I haven’t listened to this song until now. Biggest mistake ever, this song is SO GOOD.
    First of all, the melody is so pretty, and has a royalty vibe to it. It’s catchy in that way that you actually want to learn it and sing along.
    The build-up is absolutely _incredible,_ and it all comes to a head once Asriel is in his final form. You managed to convey so much heartbreak and anguish and desperation and regret and love in those verses and I am in awe.
    I like to acknowledge the art too, because I notice it tends to slip under the radar when it’s not the main focus. That being said, it adds so much to the song! The first one with Asriel and Chara looks so peaceful and happy, while the final form looks so anguished and powerful, yet somehow almost weak at the same time. It matches the tone perfectly and makes such a difference.

    Thinking about how Asriel repeats “stay with me” throughout the song because he’s trapped in the past and wants everything to be as it once was, but Frisk says “come with me” so he can start to move on and start to heal. Your lyrics are always so clever, one of the reasons I enjoy your work so much.

  • @citra1885
    @citra1885 Год назад +37

    I can't help the emotional damage to certain specific lyrics, which is “I can't let go of the past” and of course the counterpart “Can't let go of the present” That's such a clever lyrics oh my God!
    Because one day I saw someone mentioned in on the internet, that _this_ moment, the one that's been happening-is a ‘present’, a gift. Either bad or good, a gift from life, which is why it's called ‘present time’. It's a gift that it happened, and it's a gift that we lived in that moment, happy or sad, grief or joy.
    The memory Asriel shared with Chara is a “gift” for him. He treasure that moment, so much that he can't let it go. Can't let it past where the world move on without him. Where he kept ‘unchanging’, all cause he refused to move on.
    And then, it strike him, that he just have to make the present time _stays_ present. Which is his final battle in pacifist route. Basically trapping the player in the same loop, trapping us to “stay”. For Chara to stay. Which looped back into the lyrics of him can't letting go of the past and present.
    Which is, surprisingly, what happened to a lot of people in the underground. I like to think of Underground as this giant metaphor of being “stuck” in their own problems. Toriel with grief, Papyrus and Mettaton with recognition from other, Undyne, Alphys, and Asgore with guilt. When they're freed from the Underground, they had find the closure for their problem. Asriel wanted to be understood, and happened to many teens in real life, the longing feeling of wanting to be understood. It's also a neat details that neither Asriel nor us (whose identity is Chara in this game) can proceed onward to the surface, we'll just wound up back in our last safe point. Cause technically, we're dead. We “stay” in the past (underground) while everyone moves on(the surface).
    Sorry I ramble too much-I just love this music and this game so much I couldn't help myself😅

    I don't remember if I commented already, but this song is beautiful, one of my favorite songs ever, and it's close to making me cry. I really like the line "instead of holding you tightly I now crush you at the sight" just hit me really hard, it really shows how much trauma Asriel has been through and how it affected him, and also really sad that he is now trying to kill the person that he loves, all in a desperate attempt to try and bring Chara back, to stay with him.

    This is awesome... I don't know how I managed to miss it and not watch it the day it was posted...
    I really like the melody and art of this one.
    Asriel's backstory is really tragic, and his death is the thing that started Undertale's story, so I was waiting for an Asriel song from you.. and of course, you didn't disappoint.
    It really shows how he projects Chara onto Frisk, he's just so sure that his best friend is finally back... I personally see a lot of the things that Flowey says about Frisk/Chara/the player in the game as him idolizing Chara to the point of becoming obsessed with them... but not with who they really are as a person, but with the idea of them. The best friend in the whole universe, who will support him no matter what he does- no matter all the pain he's caused, they will always be the one who understands all of it and will like all of it, because in his eyes, they're just like him. He's so obsessed with his idea of Chara as a friend, that when another human falls, he instantly starts to see them as Chara coming back from the dead, revived just like he was.
    And this song really shows that, especially the later parts with the God of Hyperdeath. This part contains my favourite line of the whole song- "If that's what 'friendship' really takes, then I will make sure that you never save". The way you sang it gave me chills... and it portrays the fact that he's keeping Frisk trapped in this world under the belief that they're his long dead best friend, and you can see his warped view of what his friendship with Chara truly was... just. IT'S AMAZING
    I don't want this to get too long, but... yeah, I love this a lot.

    @thenobody7509 Год назад +8

    Just wanted to add my interpretation on some lines hoping you'll see this ik I already commented once.
    "My hatred proceeds farther than memories." Chara realizing they don't even remember the reason behind why they felt Hatred towards humanity anymore. It's to far back.
    "The Love I once had died when I came back." The level of violence which chara use to be capable of carrying out isn't something they're able to do anymore after awakening from death.
    "But you are back to! My best friend is renewed." Chara feeling overjoyed that Asriel has also returned. Perhaps even experiencing a sense of hope that maybe they'll be able to fix their mistake and Renew their relationship.
    "Reincarnation, yet you seem hesitant..." Chara acknowledging that in a sense Flowey is just Asriel's reincarnation like Frisk is there own. But also noticing how hesitant flowey is on actually revealing his identity even though Chara already knows it's him. This could also be seen as invoking a feeling of sadness within them due to the hesitation Flowey is showing.
    "And I Say." This one might refer back to asriel's own lines "Stay with me." Because just like Asriel all Chara really wants is for their best friend to stay with them. However it could also refer to the lines. "Come with me." Frisk/Chara's desire for Flowey/Asriel to come to the surface with them and to leave the past behind once and for all.
    I'm aware this is probably not the case but for me it feels right.

    Wanna learn this song so I’m typing out all the lyrics
    We were all once
    A wonderful family
    Such high royalty
    Such a burden to bear
    It seemed you couldn’t see
    Past your hate and deceit
    Golden rays shined upon
    Your plan for murderous deeds
    And I fell for it too
    Fell for anger and pain
    And my tears start to stain
    As your life faded away
    You took over my mind
    And my clarity came
    Came to relieve that hate
    But it was all too late
    And I say,
    “Stay with me”
    Stay with me as I bleed
    I lay your body down to rest
    As your people start to scream
    And I am scared to die
    Die with no reason why
    I stumble back into my kingdom
    With nothing but my own damn shame
    “Stay with me!”
    Our mother cries and screams
    She holds me tightly in her arms
    The same way I held you too
    And I now rest my head
    Upon that flower bed
    And I think of you in death
    And hope that one day we will meet again
    (Again…)
    Prince of the world
    Yet my world left with you
    There’s no hope left in me
    My dreams bleed at the seams
    Yet somehow I still live
    Your determination
    Flows through my very veins
    So I am to remain
    And my hatred proceeds
    Father than memories
    And the “love” I once had
    Died when I came back
    But now you are back too!
    My best friend is brand new
    Reincarnation
    Yet you seem hesitant…?
    And I say,
    “STAY WITH ME!”
    I’m pleading as you leave
    I can’t go back to the way
    I felt ‘cause no one understands but you
    I can’t let go
    Can’t let go of my past
    Instead of holding you tightly
    I now crush you at the sight
    And I say,
    “STAY WITH ME!”
    There’s no way you can leave
    I’ll hold you here until the end of time
    We both know that this world is mine
    I’ll kill you more
    Times than you could ever count
    If that’s what “friendship” really takes
    Then I will make sure that you never save
    “STAY WITH ME!”
    I’m screaming as you try
    To save what little hope that I have left
    To repent of the sins I’ve done
    I can’t let go
    Can’t let go of your friends
    ‘Cause if I let go of the present
    What will really be left of me?
    “Come with me!”
    You reach out with mercy
    I beg that you would understand
    That I am nothing more than bloodthirsty
    “Oh, come with me!”
    You say again, a plea
    And I do finally take your hand
    You show me that we really can
    Have a good end
    A good end…

    Oooh, I like the line "your determination flows through my very veins." because it kinda works for a mini-headcanon of mine, kind of building off the theory that it's Chara's soul in the machine powering the true lab. I like to think Alphys used Chara's soul for the DT extractions, and therefore, Flowey would've been given Chara's determination.

    • @evidentlyfresh
      @evidentlyfresh  Год назад +1

      I used that line for that very thought! I believe it says somewhere in the true lab that all of the soul's determination was extracted, so at least a part of Flowey's determination would be Chara's!

      @@evidentlyfresh I also want to say I LOVE how this song portrays Asriel. it portrays the child-like side of him that continues to exist, even in Flowey. To me, the reason I think he saw Chara in you is because he was failing to grasp with their death, kind of like survivor's guilt. In a *"Why did I get to come back, but they didn't?"* kinda way

    I definitely appreciate this song, so many people try to pass Chara off as being the better of the two between them and Frisk, but Chara was truly a horrid child, even when absolutely showered with love from a family that had every reason to fear them, they couldn't let go of their hate, their desire for vengeance. It brings into question if they even loved their family being so willing to shatter it completely. Everything is Chara's fault, everything is just a means to an end for them.

    • @L1MBO12
      @L1MBO12 8 месяцев назад +2

      My personal view is that Chara wasn't a completely evil demon child from hell but they also weren't the best person either. So I think they were still a troubled kid but I do think that they did love their family. The whole flower plan that they orchestrated was definitely terrible and reckless tho and it came out of a really awful resentment and hatred for humanity but I still think they loved their adoptive family and actually wanted to free monsters. But when they died they died in even more hatred and resentment because the humans killed them and their brother and they also died being kinda salty at asriel because they both died in vain because he resisted to fight back against the attacking humans. And in the genocide route, my view is that you essentially cultivate this hatred and resentment so much that they become the maniac that they become. This also explains why they absolutely decimate flowey at the end. But in the true pacifist route, I like to think that they change and become a better person.
      (Sorry for the essay lol I just wanted to say my thoughts on it but I can also see the Chara being evil theory working as well! I feel like Chara's character is very up to interpretation.)

      @@L1MBO12 I don’t think this guy understands how morality WORKS in Undertale.
      As in, how it’s not all Good and Evil. How everyone’s in between. Like, some people call ASGORE evil, but he did what he thought was right for his people. Asriel isn’t all good, since he and Flowey are the same person, despite what fanfics try to say. Sans only steps in once he has to. Papyrus tries to capture you for petty reasons.
      All I’m trying to say is, like you said, CHARA ISN’T COMPLETELY EVIL.
      Chara. Is. Just. *Efficient.*
      Chara fills their glass past the brim so that they get the most out of it.
      They make a plan to get monsters out as quickly and efficiently as possible, even if it may have failed.
      And, yes. They actually DID care. ASGORE talks about the look of hope that was in their eyes when they were adopted by them.
      And, the soulless version of Chara that helps you along your way, they help to get LV as *efficiently as possible.*
      They were a smart kid. They just wanted everything done efficiently.

    We were all once
    A wonderful family
    Such high royalty
    Such a burden to bear
    It seemed
    You couldn't see
    Past your
    Hate and deceit
    Golden rays shined upon
    Your plan for
    Murderous deeds
    And i fell for it too
    Fell for anger and pain
    And my tears
    Start to stain
    As your life faded away
    You took over my mind
    And my clarity came
    Came to relieve that hate
    But it was all too late
    And i say
    "Stay with me"
    Stay with me
    As i bleed
    I lay your body down to rest
    As all your people
    Start to scream
    And i am
    Scared to die
    Die with no reason why
    I stumble
    Back into my kingdom
    With nothing
    But my own damn shame
    "Stay with me"
    Our mother cries and screams
    She holds me
    Tightly in her arms
    In the same way
    That i held you too
    And i now rest my head
    Upon that flower bed
    And i think of you in death
    And hope that
    One day we will meet
    Again
    Again
    Prince of the world
    Yet my world left with you
    There's no hope
    Left in me
    My dreams bleed at the seams
    Yet somehow
    I still live
    Your determination
    Flows through my very veins
    So i am to remain
    And my
    Hatred proceeds
    Farther than memories
    And that "love" i once had
    Died when i came back
    But now you are back too!
    My best friend
    Is renewed
    Reincarnation
    Yet you seem hesitant...
    And i say
    "Stay with me"
    I'm pleading
    As you leave
    I can't go
    Back to the way
    I felt cause
    No one understands
    But you
    A can't let go
    Can't let go
    Of my past
    Instead of
    Holding you tightly
    I now
    Crush you at the sight
    And i say
    "Stay with me"
    There's no way
    You can leave
    I'll hold you
    Here until the end
    Of time
    We both know
    That this world is mine
    I'll kill you more
    Times that you
    Could ever count
    If that's what
    "Friendship"
    Really takes
    Than i will
    Make sure that
    You never save
    "Stay with me"
    I'm screaming
    As you try
    To save what
    Little hope that
    I have left
    To repent of the sins
    I've done
    I can't let go
    Can't let go
    Of your friends
    Cause if i
    Let go of the present
    What will really
    Be left of me?
    "Come with me!"
    You reach out
    With mercy
    I beg that
    You would understand
    That i am
    Nothing more than
    Blood thirsty
    "Oh come with me!"
    You say again
    A plea
    And i do
    Finally take your hand
    You show me that
    We really can
    Have a
    Good end
    A good end

      I think they genuinely cared for monsters, but their hatred for humanity completely blinded them and they were unable to cope with that in any healthy way. Even if they were just a kid and meant the best for monsters, it doesn't excuse the fact that they dragged Asriel into their plan to kill their own kind, and as a result completely shattered their new-found family and the moral of the monsters. Actions talk more than intentions, and Chara's actions present a very unstable person, who was granted the ability to get what they really wanted through Asriel's body: revenge and power against the ones that supposedly wronged them. Taking that chance of revenge to a point of poisoning themselves shows that Asriel was right, they really weren't the best person.

      @evidentlyfresh but does their main motivation have to have been revenge? Is it not more conflicting to believe that they believe they did something so cruel for what they considered entirety selfless reasons? Is it not heinous enough to believe that they weighed their best friend against the freedom of the monsters and decided he didn't matter in the grand scheme of things, is the message of this tale not that a better world is not always worth the sacrifice? That the ends do not justify the means?

      But from Chara's perspective, they saw it as "sometimes heroes have to make hard choices to get their happy ending" from their terrible perspective, had they not manipulated and pushed Asriel into the plan, it would have been selfish. Putting the needs of the one above the needs of the many. That is not a story I could tell, had their motivations not been to free the monsters. My Chara was never a good person but it's important to me that they genuinely believed they were
