    I would like to thank everyone for the 10k views and the many, many kind comments! I never thought this would happen.
    It's definitely scary to think that this many people have heard me play, though.

    Came for sheet music for Achilles come down that had more than just the backing strings so I could make a town tune in animal crossing, stayed for the amazing piano cover of the song. Seriously this is legendary, i was shocked to see you didn't have a massive subscriber count because your skill surely merits it!

    Lyrics for if anyone wants to sing to it:
    Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
    You're scaring us and all of us, some of us love you
    Achilles, it's not much but there's proof
    You crazy-assed cosmonaut, remember your virtue
    Redemption lies plainly in truth
    Just humor us, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
    Je vois que beaucoup de gens meurent
    Parce qu'ils estiment que la vie ne vaut pas la peine d'être vécue
    J'en vois d'autres, qui se font paradoxalement tués pour des idées
    Pour des illusions, qui leurs donnent une raison de vivre
    Ce, qu'on appelle une raison de vivre est en même temps une excellente raison de mourir
    Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
    The self is not so weightless, nor whole and unbroken
    Remember the pact of our youth
    Where you go, I'm going, so jump and I'm jumping
    Since there is no me without you
    Soldier on, Achilles, Achilles, come down
    Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?
    Loathe the way they light candles in Rome
    But love the sweet air of the votives
    Hurt and grieve but don't suffer alone
    Engage with the pain as a motive
    Today, of all days, see
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    D'un gérant d'immeuble qui s'était tué on disait un jour
    Qu'il avait perdu sa fille depuis cinq ans
    Qu'il avait beaucoup changé depuis et que cette histoire l'avait
    Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, jump now
    You are absent of cause or excuse
    So self-indulgent and self-referential
    No audience could ever want you
    You crave the applause yet hate the attention
    Then miss it, your act is a ruse
    It is empty, Achilles, so end it all now
    It's a pointless resistance for you
    Ce qui déclenche la crise est presque toujours incontrôlable
    Les journaux parlent souvent de chagrins intimes ou de maladie incurable
    Ces explications sont valables
    Mais il faudrait savoir si le jour même un ami
    Du désespéré ne lui a pas parlé sur un ton indifférent
    Celui-là est le
    Achilles, Achilles, just put down the bottle
    Don't listen to what you've consumed
    It's chaos, confusion and wholly unworthy
    Of feeding and it's wholly untrue
    You may feel no purpose nor a point for existing
    It's all just conjecture and gloom
    And there may not be meaning, so find one and seize it
    Do not waste yourself on this roof
    Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
    Chiming away for a moment
    Feel your breath course frankly below
    And see life as a worthy opponent
    Today, of all days, see
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
    Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
    Les souvenirs d'une patrie perdue, l'espoir d'une terre promise
    Ce divorce entre l'homme de sa vie
    You want the acclaim, the mother of mothers (it's not worth it, Achilles)
    More poignant than fame or the taste of another (don't listen, Achilles)
    But be real and just jump, you dense motherfucker (you're worth more, Achilles)
    You will not be more than a rat in the gutter (so much more than a rat)
    You want my opinion, my opinion you've got (no one asked your opinion)
    You asked for my counsel, I gave you my thoughts (no one asked for your thoughts)
    Be done with this now and jump off the roof (be done with this now and get off the roof)
    Can you hear me, Achilles? I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    Achilles, come down
    Achilles, come down
    Celle du oui et celle du non
    Ce serait trop beau
    Mais il faut faire la part de ceux qui, sans conclure, interrogent toujours
    Ici, j'ironise à peine, il s'agit de la majorité
    Je vois également que ceux qui répondent non agissent comme s'ils pensaient oui
    De fait
    Throw yourself into the unknown
    With pace and a fury defiant
    Clothe yourself in beauty untold
    And see life as a means to a triumph
    Today, of all days, see
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
    Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
