- surprise guess who's back from the dead !!!

Lyrics:
The world I knew was simple
The good and all the evil
Two answers to a problem
The wrong one and the right one
I thought I understood life
But never confronted strife
The moment my eyes opened
All that I had was broken
I saw shades of gray
[chorus]
Tear down the thread that entwines truth and fantasy
Dissect the lies they always told you to believe
The shattered pieces of your old reality
Are those remains the figments of your own identity?
Gazing at this reflection
Seeing the infection
Of all of these projections
But there is no affection
What makes our choices righteous?
Decisions void of bias?
A truth that only tortures
Or lies that maintain order?
[chorus]
Tear down the thread that entwines truth and fantasy
Dissect the lies they always told you to believe
The shattered pieces of your old reality
Are those remains the figments of your own identity?
--
Tear down the thread that entwines truth and fantasy
Dissect the lies they always told you to believe
The shattered pieces of your old reality
Are those remains the figments of your own identity?
A million options if you're just willing to see
A new perspective with obscure morality
The world we live in is never just black and white
So listen to the voice inside you to tell you what's right
I WAS JUST WATCHIN GIFTED AND GRADUATION THE OTHER DAY IM SO GLAD YOU RETURN WITH A B O P
gumi is so pretty your tuning is a blessin to my ears
jiu sae I just watched them a few hours ago 😂
I know Im kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch new tv shows online ?
@Tristan Jaxen i watch on Flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@Brayden Paxton yup, I've been watching on Flixzone for since april myself =)
SOMEONE REVIVED TO STEAL WIGS AGAIN
Btw, the tuning may be your style, but I feel like the tuning and mastering could be far more powerful to fully grasp the meaning and music.
thank you for the feedback!! tuning and mastering are definitely things I'd like to improve on in the future
it's super good! My only critique I feel hasn't been directly addressed here yet was GUMI's overall volume- you can barely hear her in the chorus. while that can be done for artistic effect, I feel here it just detracts. She should be prettttty loud.
I'm so in love with her outfit!!
Wow I really appreciate the sentiment in the lyrics. It's great to see you upload again. Also, you and your BF make an awesome team!
HOLY CRAP THIS IS BEAUTIFUL AND WELL WORTH THE WAIT FOR IT
I can tell imma get just as addicted to it as I am your other songs.
Not to mention the art would be enough to keep me here, even I didn't like the song TwT
aw heck thank you so much!! that means a lot
@@AthenaZ
You're welcome! :D
I've been waiting!! A good song as always!
It's been so long!!! The tuning sounds like it's improved! What a bop uwu
SHE'S BACK!
Edit: holY CRAP THIS IS YOUR BEST SONG YET THIS IS DEFINITELY GOING ON MY MUSIC PLAYLIST
Edit 2: I seriously can't stop listening to this please send help
This is one of the best songs I've ever heard questioning subjectivity and the nature of reality. Beautifully done!
everything about this song and video define perfection.
These rhymes are on fire. You are a lyrical master.
I love the simple track and the blunt lyrics. It feels straight to the point and I like it.
can't believe you saved 2019
no but seriously though, this is great, the tuning, instrumental and lyricism has improved so much
just wondering, are you going to be releasing a vsqx? :D
What an incredible song. I've been waiting for it for a long time.
I love this song. It's so charming yet it still has some of the dubstep I usually listen to, truly calming. Thank you :)
I cannot express how much I love this song. The beat, the lyrics, Gumi's lovely voice, the artwork!
And oohh, this reminds me of one of my old memories! Aahhh
Ily, keep snatching mg wig!
Love, Todokanai
I love it! Tysm for uploading! Worth the wait. Your music makes me happy like clockwork. You truly are gifted. I'll still be listening at my graduation. Never give up. Face the future and make a change for us, in the community of vocaloid- no, music as a whole.
This is SO good, you're a blessing to the engloid community. PLEASE never stop making music!
i smell *underrated*
its Sooooo good to see you back. and love the new song. hearing all your songs in order is like hearing someone learning how to professionally sing, each time you improve a little bit more. can't wait to see what becomes of your's and Gumi's combined potential!
GIRL I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE BACK! An amazing song is always worth the wait
You never disappoint me with your uploads! This was amazing. Definitely worth the wait. Hope you keep doing these amazing vocaloids :3
Someone in the Honkai Room 1 suggested this song.
It's amazing! Really like the calmer music and good use of Gumi! And a nice simple message in the song. Also complimenting bf's video editing skills.
I will say she sometimes comes off as very robotic, but that's a nitpick if anything.
Great job!
I was translating one of your song its rise and you upload new song its make me really happy and i loved this song you are amazing!
I was just rewatching all of your other stuff yesterday! Another amazing song as always!
wowie thought I'd never see another one
The beat is pretty calm but at the same time, I think it fits in this case. Definitely see a lot of improvement since Gifted ^-^
I see this is great
Yaayyy a song! The melody is so catchy, such a beautiful PV too! Ahhh your work really inspires me
These lyrics and the art QAQ I love this
This is really good but she sounds very breathy. Could use some harmonies too. But it's a amazing start! The lyrics are amazing as well😮✨
I really like the way the whole song is so quiet and laidback (especially the chorus) whilst the topic is much darker. It gives off an eerie feeling of relaxation yet still manages to feel the stress that’s described in the lyrics. Put simply, this is a masterpiece!
I see notificc
I clicc
all of your songs are amazing! you have true talent!
This song on 1.25x playback speed sounds nice! Try it!
ITS BEEN 2 YEARS BUT STILL THIS SONG HITS DIFFERENT
Unbelievable!! The art the lyrics and the vocals and background music splendid. Video just wonderful. Nice collaboration in all.
I just relized that other videos are from 1 year ago. Glad to see u back with new song:)
Somehow Perspective ended up in my recs again after a few years, and I was really happy to see you uploaded again recently :) (awesome song btw) Tbh I didn't comment for a while on this video because I was a lot more socially awkward even over text then. I still am as you can probably tell by the length of this comment but I digress
I actually ran into this song when I was getting out of a mental hospital. I was in like grade 11 and I was trying to categorize complex world issues into simple boxes of right and wrong. I discussed a lot of philosophy and morals with my brother, but I think that kinda just gave high school me an existential crisis about how horrible the world is. Obviously, the black and white thinking wasn't working, hence the breakdowns, but it was all I knew.
When I first heard this song, I remember feeling especially called out. Usually when I listen to music I associate it with a character or whatever because I don't like being perceived, but this felt almost like the music was staring at me, seeing into my soul, and challenging me. I was just looping Perspective and trying to use it as motivation to leave behind a lot of the cycles of black and white thinking. I suppose listening to the song just kind of put me in the right emotional headspace to look into myself and change.
Today I still care about ethics, but I don't let it consume my entire life anymore. A lot of it was my own work, but a lot of it was changing the influences that media had on me. And I'd like to think that this song was a positive influence, so thanks for that! ^^ So even if your uploads are sparse, please keep creating! 💜Every story is worth sharing because it could help someone else
Thank you so much for your comment and kind words! :) I'm glad this song was able to resonate with you, and I intend on continuing to create even if my uploads are infrequent
I love love love this song especially the chorus❤❤
THIS IS SO GOOOOD
Welcome back Athena!
I LITERALLY just listened to your older songs less than an hour ago. Woot woot new music!
I love the entire video. Is there anywhere I can find the art used in? I know it's the same creator, so perhaps she uploaded it somewhere?
The vibe this gives me is really futuristic
This is my comment after watch it. IT SUPER DAMM GOOOD, The Video, The Art, The Music, The Lyric. For goodness sake, this is the first time i witness something that so difference from other, it so true to real life and the problem we are facing at like other video you made. Man i swear i will walt for a hundred year just for your song to come out. I believe someday you will reach 1M subcriber.
thank you so much for the sentiment!
Damn I loved this, the whole beat and just the calming tune was hella nice as a song i can listen to whenever. Also really liked the lyrics, and the art you make is just wonderful. I’m not an artist (neither musically nor actual art-wise), but something about your songs and drawings I love. I’ve been missing and waiting for ya shit and goddamn you delivered.
Also I gotta say this came straight out of left-field, and I got hella excited when I saw it in my notifications.
aw thank you so much!! I'm glad to hear you like it! : )
Oh wow, I can't believe I only found this song just now, I am immediately in love!
It's been a long wait but it was worth it!! Welcome back :D
Me encanta!!!!!!

OMG yesssssss Youre finally back with yet another amazing Song .
This is awesome, I'm so glad you're back! This is such a bOP.
I love this song, and the meaning behind it, it's pretty and the meaning is easy to understand,
I know nothing about song making, but I will say, from the small knowledge I have, ya did an amazing job :)
(Lol, how did I just find out this exists now??)
Glad to see you're back! Gotta say I love your art style
Oh ! This song is so nice ! I love it ! 💚
Here again
This is such a good song!
Ayyyyyy I was wondering when you'd upload again. Found your channel months ago and liked all your songs. I'm glad you're still alive. :P
We have been blessed with a queen yet again
You're baaack !! We missed your songs so much
(Also this is amazing, great job at this song 👍)
(And sorry for any bad english)
Best one yet! I love this so much
I like this one. Serious subject but the song feels oddly calm...in a good way.
Woah I just got back into vocaloids and I was sad you hadn't uploaded at all. Looks like I chose a good time to become interested again!
Stunning visuals, intriguing lyrics, and the instrumentals are legit so mesmerizing. It's just a tad unfortunate that her voice sounds a bit choked and static tuning-wise, but other than that you've done a fabulous job with this song. ^w^
This only adds to my theory of gumi being an anarchist
I MISS YOU!! How have you been? I really the song!! Keep up the great work!!
hello!! I've been good, just really busy! glad you hear you like it and thank you
Really like your art!!
is it ok if i do a meme of this?

Rifat Aziz haha thank you so much! Sure you can do a meme of it : )
@@AthenaZ OMG THANK YOU!!!! you're the best!! :)

@@rifathaziz yes sure, I'd love to see it when you're done!
@@AthenaZ thank you! you're the greatest!
Hey. Love your songs.
Keep going. Persistent is rewarding.
Why did it take me this long to find you? I am so glad I listened to gifted because I would have never noticed you otherwise. I know you will reach the top and I can't say that you would become a KIRA or GHOST because you more than just that. You will become someone who inspires all and pushes people forward with your lyrics.
SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
Welcome back, it took ya long enough. Lol
You've made another Masterpiece! I thought you'd never be able to top Gifted but here you are. Amazing work as always! Will we be seeing more of your great work in the near future?
haha thank you!! only time will tell but I hope so! : )
Oh, I just listened to Gifted yesterday and thought you were either dead or had given up on music.
Sweet.
Hello. It's sentimental and stylish, comfortable and cool, brave and pure pop song!!!
Glad to see a new upload! I loved your Gifted Original, and this is great as well! Hope to hear more from you soon!~
(I saw many comments about this already, but Gumi's voice is a bit muffled here, and is often shadowed out by the other parts of the music.)
OH MY GOD THIS IS A B O P
A really amazing song ^^
2:37 I love this refreshing moment of intensity!
OH MY GOD I LOVE YOUR MUSIC :ddddddd
In all honesty, I don't like this song as much as the previous ones. [long review coming; tl;dr: at the end]
Your motifs have always been fairly straightforward, and I do respect that. Many songwriters seem to think true art is incomprehensible - while there is an appeal in some degree of ambiguity, which leaves the message up to interpretation, it's nice to see songs that doesn't need to rely on obscurity to sound good.
You tend to use simple, common themes - _Gifted_ for envy; _Graduation_ being, well, exactly what it sounds like; _Clockwork_ being more ambiguous than the others, but still quite focused on the story of one relationship; _Rise_ as the well-loved cliche of the underdog embracing themselves, and unlocking their true potential. You show that just because a motif has been used a million times before doesn't mean it can't still be used well, and that cliches are tools, not something to avoid. You take straightforward, age-old ideas and dilemmas and reconstruct them in a singularly oriented song, without needing much extra embellishment. I respect that. it's one of my favorite things about your music.
But I must admit that I have some problems with this particular song. In all honesty, it feels kind of aimless, not quite finished. All your previous songs knew what they were doing. They were focused on a single theme or trend, and pulled it off well, whether it's _Gifted_ lamenting the MC's feelings of jealousy and unfairness or _Rise_ encouraging the outcast to stand up for themselves. But _perspective_ , well, spends most of the song talking about how morals aren't just black and white, and then at the end adds a _single line_ saying that to confront a world of grey areas, we should listen to our conscience, which isn't exactly helpful advice ("you see, to do what's right, you just have to follow what you _think_ is right! betcha didn't think of _that_ !!") - and even it it were, it would make way more sense if you actually spent at least one verse talking about it.
If your message is, "follow your own judgement on morality," you should have spent more time talking about it, since you get really caught up on the whole "not black and white" thing. You could have just stuck with the latter - sure, it's a pretty common theme, and also something people tend to learn by fifth grade, but again, I do think simplicity is part of the appeal of your music. If you're going to do something as significant as propose a solution to, what, all moral dilemmas? - you really need to actually use more than one line talking about. The "so listen to the voice inside you to tell you what's right" line really feels like it was just tacked onto the end haphazardly.
Also, I feel like you get really caught up finding words that rhyme at times, instead of actually focusing on your meaning:
Gazing at this reflection
Seeing the infection
Of all of these projections
But there is no affection
It feels a bit repetitive.
*tl;dr: the straightforwardness of your themes is good, but your last line feels abrupt and out-of-place. your message needs to be more focused, and less repetitive.*
Hi! First of all thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback, it's really helpful for me to take these considerations into the future so I can improve
@@AthenaZ Woah, you actually replied uwu. Sorry if I sounded harsher than I intended, I tend to rant. Big fan of your music!
Listening to _Gifted_ r/n because it gives me motivation to study for the AMC10...
@@jennali9800 Haha no worries! Good luck studying : )
Great!!

If Grey and this song mixed some how I think it would be beautiful
How it felt at the beginning of leaving Christianity
YEAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAY YEAY YEAY!!!! yeay.
