Description
I wrote this song a couple of months ago, i had the demo of it posted. Now its returning in a more fullfilled version. I have written more verses, and played some piano, Synths, flute, and electric guitar. I had some lyrical ambitions with this song, however i am not sure that i have fullfilled them. Lately i have started thinking a lot about the illusion of democrazy(!) that we live under in the western world...

Lyrics
Happy and free
© Magnus Torbjørnsen
I told myself
A thousand times
I was in the bathroom
when I caught my eyes
The person in front of me
Looked like a wannabe
The biggest lie
That has crossed my path
we don’t wanna be
happy and free
Is there a fight?
for our lives and for our rights
They made up a story
so convincingly
and threw it out for our eyes to see
We watched it all
with our eyes closed
and failed to see the conspiracy
we don’t wanna be
happy and free
Is there a fight?
for our lives and for our rights
The biggest nightmare
I could ever imagine
A god has betrayed us
but no one cares
They call you crazy
if you make an opinion
that’s a little different
then then the usual
we don’t wanna be
happy and free
Is there a fight?
for our lives and for our rights

I like the melody line you've made for the flutes/strings. It gives the song a new dimension. I feel like I'm in a church listening to this:) Especially the last tone of the flute.
The song has a delightful simplicity to it although you've arranged more instrument to it.
I wonder if you have done the main vocal twice? At some places near the end it sounds like their slightly pitched... I would go easy on that technique...
The lyrics... hmm, not sure if I see the picture clearly...
But the song is well composed and arranged.
Bravo:)
