I found this song through a Project Zomboid mod, and... man. To me, I feel like within the context of the game itself, this song just hits so much harder. Like somebody long after the collapse of society decided to grab a cassette and record themselves singing one last song, one that might never be heard by anyone else. The lyrics themselves could also be interpreted as somebody singing about the apocalypse -- or something along those lines. I guess with that in mind, I could justify that as a reason for why this song makes me want to cry, though I'm sure there is so much more at play.
@@arintherodeoclown6316 I think it was the "Music for the End of the World" mod; although, for some reason I got some extra tracks -- including this one -- which are a part of a separate mod, an extension of the former, called "Music for the End: Home Labelled." I'd link them but I think RU-vid flags my reply if I include hyperlinks.
Saw you so still So cold You lay outside alone Your eyes were still open inside(?) You left On that Summer night Your mother was so confused Her nose dug up dirt Your bruise(?) She looked up at me She spoke "Why bother? We're all just smoke." Well I'll tell you why I'll tell you why I'll tell you why It could've been you I drove back along the coast With hanging grey trees so coarse My passenger stayed asleep Intoxicated deep So I went home and stared Out the window I'm not prepared If I'm just going to be the rose You drop on my final home It's starting to rain inside Let's stay outside tonight It's starting to rain inside Let's stay outside tonight It's starting to rain inside Let's stay outside tonight It's starting to rain inside Let's stay outside tonight It's starting to pour
For those curious - this song was replaced by Epilogue. I hope that someday they make a full fledged version of this song. It deserves the studio treatment. Then again, I don't want that? It's perfect in such a raw form. I think it would lose it's beauty if it were perfected.
hi do you have a source for that info on Hospice? this song already has a studio version from 2005 and Peter started writing the material that would later become Hospice in 2007.
@@biddyboo8 nah the version on February Tape is a remake by Peter. The original version of Dear is from Peter's solo EP 'You Crawl To Our Sleep' before Uprooted in 2005 and it used to be on RU-vid a few years back
@@crateredcallisto2854 i haven't been able to find Dear yet but we have been looking. would love to hear the original clean version since this one is so fuzzy. i do have 1 track from You Crawl on my channel (Build It Up Chrome) and i'm planning on uploading a never-before heard demo of an album track peter released before uprooted from around 2004 or 2005 when i get the chance.
