SYML - "I Wanted To Leave" [Official Audio] 

This morning I released my first-ever "piano" song. I've released some piano versions of songs before, but "I Wanted To Leave" is the first song that was written for the piano. I have a history of being in beautiful places and having a nagging feeling to leave. Even when I’m with people I love, these places start to feel cold and less like home the more I’m there. I think life is full of these juxtaposed environments where we pressure ourselves to stay or go. I wrote this song in Paris, such a beautiful city rich in culture and history. And when I started feeling the urge to leave, this melody emerged. I'm looking forward to releasing a few more of these in the coming months so I hope you enjoy.

It's weird. To me, the melody isn't sad or happy. It's weird. It evokes a strong feeling but I cannot categorize it, it's like it made me feel a peaceful void. It's weird and soothing at the same time. Thank you for creating this. I love it.

This song feels like autumn. Like dancing in the leaves as the world around you let its shining colors blend together. Like rediscovering your childhood town in muted tones. Like going over all your most ancient memories, the fresh scent of mormings, the crackling of the fire, the sounds of laughter and joy echoing in your head. It feels like coming home. Coming home after a long day and finding silence. Not a bad silence, just the quiet of the living sometimes. The quiet you make when you reflect of life. You go to make yourself a hot drink and you sit on your porch. You sit there for a while and your let the world wash over you. You feel clean, smooth and clear. You feel like hardened cristal. And you find yourself not wanting to leave that moment out of time. You belong here.

This song makes me feel like the ending of a war, a happines that all the chaos has ended but at the same time, pain and grieve for all the lost lives

Ms. Lana del Rey has acknowledged this beautiful melody on her newest album. The track is called Paris, Texas. Thank you SYML for this!

This sounds like the response or alternative perspective to "Where's My Love"

Am I the only one that just listens to the first chord and knows it’s a fantastic song?

when u know u know, when u know u know, it’s time it’s time to go

it’s like the response to “where’s my love?” cause he/she wanted to leave hence “i wanted to leave” has no lyrics cause he/she never actually said anything just left with no explanation and left the other one wondering where they had gone to

Found my new background song when I pretend to be the main character

Once again, you’ve managed to create a language that souls speak. My son, who is autistic, falls asleep to your music all the time. I can’t wait to introduce him to this new one. Thank you.

To me, this sounds like loneliness, both equally gentle and desolate, reflective and wistful. Its relaxing and serene with just a touch of melancholy and yet its beautiful

Coming back to here after listening to Lana's "Paris, Texas." Oh I have always loved this wondrous melody. And added with Lana's melodious voice, it sent me straight to heaven.

this makes you feel like you're hovering. love it

Who‘s here after Lana added lyrics to this peaceful song?☁️

SYML and Sleeping at Last should write a song together. Your styles of music are so close but yet you each of your own flare!

I live in a country where it never snows. I've never felt the snow. But this song makes me feel like it's snowing inside my chest. I just can't stop listening to it.

Don’t ever change ,the world needs to keep hearing your music , more than ever❤️

POV during the song- You've spent most of your life hating who you were. You never felt like you were enough inside or out. One day you decided you were sick of never feeling enough. You pushed yourself to the limit every day, exercising, eating healthy, taking care of yourself for once. And after a while it became habit to love and take care of yourself. And so you lived on. Happy and healthy. Better than before. Transformed.

Thank you to Lana to introducing me to this song.

Why does this perfectly personify the tune of my soul? I can almost feel my mind vibrating to the tone of this melody, like water rippling with the touch of falling leaves

I would be able to tell this was SYML from anywhere, in the same way this song is telling me who I am without any words

this song feels like realizing things wont get better for a while or maybe ever at all, but accepting it and finding peace despite it.

I can’t believe how Lana brought me here to know this masterpiece… the melody is beautifully written and lana’s edition makes it different with the vocals❤

[Verse 1] I went to Paris (Texas) With a suitcase in my hand I had to leave Knew they wouldn't understand [Chorus] When you know, you know When you know, you know It's time, it's time to go When you know, you know Then the more you know It's time to go [Verse 2] I took a trip to Spain Just a notebook in my hand Then I went to see some friends of mine Down in Florence, Alabama [Chorus] When you know, you know When you know, you know It's time, it's time to go When you know, you know That it's time to leave Like the summer breeze [Bridge] When everyone's star is bright Brighter than you are It's time to go And you're the only one left Dancin' while they're on the floor Time to go [Verse 3] I flew back home It seems everything's the same (Venice, California) Except that you weren't home “Hello,” I call to no one (But) Outro] When you're home, you're home (Venice, California) When you're home, you're home (Venice, California) You're home, when you're alone When you're right, you're right When you're right, you're right Even when you're wrong

I can keep this on repeat for a million years

Lana Del Rey voice was meant for this ballad!

Who’s here after paris, texas?

I love this song because it feels like a survivors abuse story. ‘I wanted to leave’ is sad notes to a happy melody. Just like the real deal.

Lana will be sampling this song on her song “Paris, Texas” on her upcoming album out March 24

It remids me a little bit of where's my love, and i'm living for that

When they ask about my favorite i can't say SYML, because you're my little secret😌

This music makes me think of my life, looking back to how much I’ve grown, thinking back to memories, difficult situations I’ve gone through that have made me stronger and the person I am today.. it’s truly beautiful.

Somehow SYML just has the ability to make songs that feel like home and bring a sense of comfort. The songs are rain pitter pattering on leaves, making the mountains misty and the air damp. I feel alive when I listen.

I hope SYML and sleeping at last teamup for a song. That would be fantastic

I saw SYML's notif. I CLICKED.

paris texas !!!

“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger - something better, pushing right back.” ― Albert Camus

0:42 The emotion that comes from just this single note. This song is crazy good 😍

when you know, you know

I love that magic atmosphere this song has. And “Paris, Texas” gave this song the beautiful and sad voice and lyrics Lana put on this one.

Han Sohee ig story bring me here🥰♥️ Its so refreshing, it’s make me calm😌

I am so lucky that i found this channel

Lana Del Rey using this gorgeous piece for the album is amazing💕💕

This is therapy, this is what our souls crave for,the hug we long for,the smile we exhibit,the tears of joy,the fulfillment we desire. God bless you for making this melody!

can’t wait for Lana to sing over this piano on her upcoming album Ocean Boulevard

I cant explain the feelings i get when I listen to this ..it’s just overwhelming

looking forward to hearing the combination he and Lana made with this song so sensitive and beautifully deep

Thanks for letting Lana use this

This song reminds me something that I never lived, but it sounds familiar and obvious at the same time. An imaginary nostalgia that hits the present and make it past. Genius.

Paris, Texas :)

when you know, you know its time, its time to go

I don't know how to say it better. This song is that warm feeling when that one person looks at you in a way that changes your whole life. The warm, kind happiness what you feel when you finally accept the person who you really are.

It makes me feel like having a slow-dance in the rain all by myself, crying and feel peaceful at the same time. I can't describe enough how beautiful this song is. Thank you for make this.

Hey you, I want you to give yourself credit for how far you've come. How many hard times have you gone through. You are a strong a** soul. I understand how mentally tired you are, but it all is part of the process. You have become so strong. You are not the only one that struggles, we all do mate and it's okey, because it's natural. We believe in you❤️. Don't forget to take care of yourself. Grab a bottle of water and go outside💧. Have a nice day, bye 👋.

Every song is beautiful and pure I'm glad they're my little secret

Listening to this song makes me dream like I am travelling all by myself , to heal, and trying to fall in love with myself again

Paris, Texas...

Feels like the quietness of being underwater. Like I’m being hugged by the blanket of water all around me and above me. And I’m floating in the still quietness of it

To the person who disliked this: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU

Lana titling her sample 'Paris, Texas' hits way harder now that I know SYML wrote this song in Paris😅

Lana did it justice :')

just want to say that im gratefull to be alive, and a few days later will be 2023.

when you know you know …

Woke up to this. My day is already perfect. Thanks SYML.

Lana brought you guys to the top and I'm glad for that. Always loved fear of the water

This song is so soothing. Every time i’m crying or on the edge of a breakdown i listen to it. And i feel better. No matter how hard it is. No matter how messed up the situation is, this song appeases my soul. It gives me hope, courage to hold on. Thank you, for giving me something to live for

Everything this man makes... is amazing, incredible, heartfelt, warming, special, elegant, and there’s so much more u can say about his music. I’m so glad people are discovering him and seeing who he is and his amazing voice. Beautiful

after 2 years of no contact, I talked with the person that I had been together for 5 years while this song was playing in the background.

This feels like a melancholic nostalgia.

this song is exactly what i feel when saying good bye to someone or something, sad but happy, nostalgic and relieved, smiling through tears

Impressive 👏👏 👏 I’m happy Lana sang this, love that song ❤.

This is so incredibly beautiful, those 200 seconds passed by in an instant...

Essa música me trás conforto, como se eu tivesse encontrado um repouso. Um lar onde posso vir quando estiver desanimado. Então descanso até estar pronta para recomeçar, de novo...

Heard Lana is sampling this 🥺

Your music really is a special place to me, it feels like coming back to something that tells me it's ok & it's gonna be alright. When I hear this, I feel safe for a moment. Thank you for making my life a little lighter 🌸

I love all the comments describing this song as nor happy or sad, just a weird autumn vibe, I can still kind of feel it, this song got me through some tough shit, and i cant get through the whole song now without crying, it just hurts now, but it's still oddly warm, like a pumpkin spice frappuccino 🥲👍

Han So Hee made me listen to this🥺♡

To me, this song sounds like exploring an attic on a rainy day in the summer. The smells of dust, old books, and petrichor mixing as the rain beats a tattoo on the roof and you try and piece together the stories of the lives that belonged to all these old, long- forgotten things.

ive been listening to this song everyday for about a year now. i'd love to attend an upcoming concert, but its 21+ :')

i seriously can’t hear this song without crying my eyes out, i can’t even hear 1 second of it 😭 omfggg it’s just that beautiful 💔

I have known this song for years and I always wanted it to be played at my funeral ofc I still do it's so peaceful

Today I realised how much I don’t belong to My home.. and how much I wanna leave and start over.. Everywhere I go I don’t belong I don’t relate to anyone I only wish to have My own space and peace.. it’s not too much to ask is it? I’ve been planning for a long time to Leave with peace to save My soul from drowning.. please wish Me a happy and peaceful new life..

Lana fits so perfectly in this audio!!! I love it

This song is perfect when you want to go sit or lay down outside in the rain and look at the view...it's quite relaxing! I always do that during my free time when it's rainning

This song makes me feel introspection, like I can see myself and the world around me and appreciate it.

Relaxing but profound at the same time...

I sill can’t believe Lana made a song out of this. It truly helped me move on in 2023🩵

I.... went to paris (texas) with a suitcase in my hand

When you know you know, it's time to go

Here for Paris, Texas

especially when the whole world is in such a state of chaos and uncertainty, your music is truly a blessing ❤️

It's so beautiful and calming...

Every time when I'm listening to music I think that the music is one of the best creations of people...

this song feels like watching all of your memories go through like a movie. some kind of nostalgic and i would not say "sad" but actually, hopeful feeling, idk?? it's like "ok, i have been through all this...right. but i still feel empty"

PARIS,TEXAS😭

i just wanted to leave the place im living its more like a hell, i just wanted to go to place where i can find peace and can be happy. i wanted to live alone for sometime far away from everyone and live my own life in a cosy place without any problems.

This melody makes you feel like having a silent dialogue with your soul.

I’m going to share this now again, such a floral value to the most wicked beginnings.

I wouldn't mind listening this for ages.. my ears are like okay please again the same.
