This is a song inspired by the psychological horror game OMORI. Thanks for listening!
The violin and cello (and surprise background vocals) were done by Jody Miller. They are awesome.

The vocals were programmed into a Vocaloid software.
The last time I wrote a song about this game it focused on grief and repression, and I knew before I started that it was going to be about OMORI.
This song focuses more on depression and recovery. Like most of my music, I first began writing and then slowly figured out where it was going, eventually deciding to frame it around this video game.
I often attribute the topic of my music to some form of media or another because I generally don't like getting personal about myself. If I'm going to keep making music though, I need to get over it and allow a little bit of intimacy in my songs.
Making the video for this was simple, but surprisingly fun; it makes me want to incorporate more practical stuff into any lyric videos from now on.
Thanks for listening, and for reading.
