"08.31.20XX" - Kasane Teto

I started making this song on a whim about 5 months ago. At first, I didn't think I would finish it. But after two months of not working on it, I suddenly had a few inspirations! Mainly trying to capture the feeling of happiness and sadness simultaneously. I think I was able to convey that sort of melancholy through this song. I also had inspiration from lo-fi music and borrowed some elements there! Also, Happy Birthday Miku! Thank you for inspiring me to make music 15 years ago! I hope that I can always make Vocaloid music for the rest of my life :) Another thing, THANK YOU @viyetch FOR THE PEAK ART! They really outdid themselves (like always lol) The various Miku polaroids is their idea and I LOVE it!

Lyrics: Hey there, my friend You probably won't feel the warmth of my hand As I build a castle that's made out of sand You know that this is just a means to an end You'd understand You were my friend In every situation I can depend On you to be right by my side till the end I know that life is just a fleeting moment I won't pretend That I can get rid of all of this doubt I don't know if I am allowed On this special day, I'll say it out loud I don't care what they say I promise I'll stay Right by your side As I try to sing you Happy Birthday One day you'll open your eyes As I try to show you I'm on my way Happy Birthday Hey there, my friend You probably won't feel the warmth of my hand
