#SYML #piano
This morning I released my first-ever "piano" song. I've released some piano versions of songs before, but "I Wanted To Leave" is the first song that was written for the piano.
I have a history of being in beautiful places and having a nagging feeling to leave. Even when I’m with people I love, these places start to feel cold and less like home the more I’m there. I think life is full of these juxtaposed environments where we pressure ourselves to stay or go. I wrote this song in Paris, such a beautiful city rich in culture and history. And when I started feeling the urge to leave, this melody emerged.
I'm looking forward to releasing a few more of these in the coming months so I hope you enjoy.
Love your music! Can listen for hours
You are simply amazing...share us the experience when you made this masterpiece.
I wish you would respond on twitter...
This is beautiful ❤️
So beautiful and soothing ♥♥
It's weird. To me, the melody isn't sad or happy. It's weird. It evokes a strong feeling but I cannot categorize it, it's like it made me feel a peaceful void. It's weird and soothing at the same time.
Thank you for creating this. I love it.
I definitely feel a similar way. I wonder if it can be called anemoia, or a nostalgia for something which can’t be expressed.
@palace ahahahaha you're perfect
Melancholy :)
It brings the emptiness from heartache in my opinion. If this is a response or different perspective to where's my love I think it's very deep💞
My humble opinion: Music is a language and in this song what you are hearing is NEW BEGINNINGS; a turning of the tide, if you will. Old things passing a way and wrongs being set right. And in this case, it is bitter before it is sweet. It's how resolve feels. This balance could account for the "peaceful void" that you feel. At 2:06 , however I feel this to be out of place, creating an asymmetry with the interlude. The writer/composer may have felt that the song was boring without it. As is, this offset element adds a "settling for something" type feel which could symbolize healing that still remains. Also, although I don't prefer the abruptness of how the song ends, it leaves a firm, take it or leave it situation. I could also see the song being resolved more optimisticly, with a little more finesse..
This sounds like the response or alternative perspective to "Where's My Love"
yes!!!
love this
It feels a little more hopeful. Like this was her running into the woods - but instead of going into the water - she sees the beauty of the world she lives in and just takes it all in and falls in love with her life again
i absolutely love this concept!! especially since the first note reminds me of where's my love
Exactly what I was thinking too. It's beautiful.
Ms. Lana del Rey has acknowledged this beautiful melody on her newest album. The track is called Paris, Texas. Thank you SYML for this!
im sure he's aware lmaoooooo

This song feels like autumn. Like dancing in the leaves as the world around you let its shining colors blend together. Like rediscovering your childhood town in muted tones. Like going over all your most ancient memories, the fresh scent of mormings, the crackling of the fire, the sounds of laughter and joy echoing in your head. It feels like coming home. Coming home after a long day and finding silence. Not a bad silence, just the quiet of the living sometimes. The quiet you make when you reflect of life. You go to make yourself a hot drink and you sit on your porch. You sit there for a while and your let the world wash over you. You feel clean, smooth and clear. You feel like hardened cristal. And you find yourself not wanting to leave that moment out of time. You belong here.
I felt like doing all this. Thank you for writing this.
@@annesouza._ That is the most validating comment I've received in a while
You made me cry, I felt every word in it thank you!
keep on writing you have a bright future♥️✨
@@th9827 You made me cry as well. Thank you for your kind words
Wow, such a vivid image you've painted with words.. thank you for sharing 🧡
Am I the only one that just listens to the first chord and knows it’s a fantastic song?
No...
Yeah like I heard the beginning of this song in a reel and without even watching it completely I came here to search it up
@@05aiswaryaprasannan84 same haha
@@kiacidic6638 I swear, these people all want a gold star for this kind of comment
G/C minor are dope keys ^^
This song makes me feel like the ending of a war, a happines that all the chaos has ended but at the same time, pain and grieve for all the lost lives
This is SUCH a perfect way to describe this songs feeling. It's neither sad nor happy. Just...right there in the middle with a melody of both these emotions. You're happy the war is over, but now comes the years of grief, relief, sadness, happiness, memories etc
This!
Oh my god this this is it … that what I was thinking!!
YES THIS IS EXACTLY IT
@caprice.t Sadly there has always been a war in the world..
when u know u know, when u know u know, it’s time it’s time to go
it’s like the response to “where’s my love?” cause he/she wanted to leave hence “i wanted to leave” has no lyrics cause he/she never actually said anything just left with no explanation and left the other one wondering where they had gone to
damn
Woah!
Good point
now that i stumbled upon this i realize i should have used they instead of he/she
@@malenalol1463
shouldn't u have used she since the lyrics in "where's my love" refer to their love as a she
Found my new background song when I pretend to be the main character
hahaha
You are the main character
this right here
What are ya’lls similar beautiful songs!? 🥺🤍
I thought I was the only one who did this. 😅😅😅😅
Once again, you’ve managed to create a language that souls speak. My son, who is autistic, falls asleep to your music all the time. I can’t wait to introduce him to this new one. Thank you.
hi, tell your son that i’m a 19year old autistic girl and i fall asleep to this song and my night is always the best!
@@lauramiller3341 omg I will!!! Sending all my love to you!
@@lauramiller3341 me too!!!
God bless him ❤️❤️❤️
my 2 year old brother was recently diagnosed with autism and he loves to watch me play piano and sometimes plays it with me :) i played this piece for him and he fell asleep to it
To me, this sounds like loneliness, both equally gentle and desolate, reflective and wistful. Its relaxing and serene with just a touch of melancholy and yet its beautiful
It's like looking back at all the gravity falls memories you had as a child
Hi my friend, welcome to the channel Neodic Music, on my channel there are soothing and relaxing music. Please visit my channel. thank you.😄 😃 😘
U seem to be a great poet
Под эту мелодию я вспоминаю свою ушедшую из жизни маму😢Мне грустно, но слушаю ее снова и снова.
You put into words the feelings i had when i first heard this song. Thank you.
Coming back to here after listening to Lana's "Paris, Texas." Oh I have always loved this wondrous melody. And added with Lana's melodious voice, it sent me straight to heaven.
this makes you feel like you're hovering. love it
ugh I love this discription
Says the bird.... I can't fly :(
Lol I felt this
SYML and Sleeping at Last should write a song together. Your styles of music are so close but yet you each of your own flare!
FRRR
With tom Rosenthal
and Patrick Watson!!
@@jeezz2432 yess!!
Who are these people and can someone recommend me their songs?
I live in a country where it never snows. I've never felt the snow. But this song makes me feel like it's snowing inside my chest. I just can't stop listening to it.
This sounds dumb but sometimes I forget completely that there are people who have never had the opportunity to feel the snow and idk that makes me sad. Something so simple like getting to experience all the joys about every season seems so small and yet there are people that have never chased a snowflake with their tongue or made a snowman/snow Angel or anything snow related at all. That makes me sad because I complain about the snow all of the time but sometimes forget these things. I hope you get to feel the snow someday man. It is a cool experience🙂
@@BlairBxtch53 "cool"
Snow is bad. It's fun to experience, sometimes. But snow and ice can cause many traffic accidents and freeze people to death if they're not careful. If it gets too deep people can be buried alive, and it also causes lots of roads to crack open. Just having a window in your room will drop the temp by 15 degrees. There's really only one advantage to snow, and that is if you lose power, at least you can just throw some snow in your freezer. The nights are really bright though, and you get to see where your dog is peeing on the neighbor's yard, which is bad.
@Stefan Trailovic ;(
@caprice.t Depends if you're prepared. Texas getting 2 inches is like Canada getting 5 feet
this song feels like realizing things wont get better for a while or maybe ever at all, but accepting it and finding peace despite it.
Exactly
This was exactly my feeling when my ex broke up with me. I was going through a very painful episode that lasted almost a year. I’m so glad that I’m happier now.
Ouch.. you just said exactly how it feels.
Goosebumps because; Truth. Sometimes nice sometimes hurtful. Here its both. Thank you.
paris texas !!!
how did you know it?
Yeees hoow did you knew it before it released?😮
@@javieramtr2116 some insiders said this song was going to be sampled for paris texas !! so when i heard that info, i had to come here and take a listen
Don’t ever change ,the world needs to keep hearing your music , more than ever❤️
Agreed😊
Hi my friend, welcome to the channel Neodic Music, on my channel there are soothing and relaxing music. Please visit my channel. thank you.🤩 💚 💖
Why does this perfectly personify the tune of my soul? I can almost feel my mind vibrating to the tone of this melody, like water rippling with the touch of falling leaves
Beautiful
I hate birds
absolutely
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I can’t believe how Lana brought me here to know this masterpiece… the melody is beautifully written and lana’s edition makes it different with the vocals❤
Paris, Texas :)
Lana Del Rey voice was meant for this ballad!
Amén 🙏🥹🥹🥹
Yes, her gorgeous song Paris, Texas was inspired by this beautiful beautiful ballad. ❤️
I thought it was a Billie Eilish instrumental
Or Billie eilish
this is not a ballad this is a waltz elevating experience....
I would be able to tell this was SYML from anywhere, in the same way this song is telling me who I am without any words
beautiful
Yes 🙏🏻💜
What a beautiful way to describe what good music does for us.
POV during the song- You've spent most of your life hating who you were. You never felt like you were enough inside or out. One day you decided you were sick of never feeling enough. You pushed yourself to the limit every day, exercising, eating healthy, taking care of yourself for once. And after a while it became habit to love and take care of yourself. And so you lived on. Happy and healthy. Better than before. Transformed.
i love this
Who‘s here after Lana added lyrics to this peaceful song?☁️
Thank you to Lana to introducing me to this song.
Han Sohee ig story bring me here🥰♥️
Its so refreshing, it’s make me calm😌
Who’s here after paris, texas?
for me it was the opposite,I met this one first and then Lana's
🙋🏾
I am!
literally me
@@pollyxd709 same!! When i was doing marathon of Lana's song, "Paris, Texas" came up and i was confused because the melody sounds familiar but i can't seem to recall. And now i find this "I Wanted To Leave" by SYML in my playlist, no wonder 😂
when you know, you know
[Verse 1]
I went to Paris (Texas)
With a suitcase in my hand
I had to leave
Knew they wouldn't understand
[Chorus]
When you know, you know
When you know, you know
It's time, it's time to go
When you know, you know
Then the more you know
It's time to go
[Verse 2]
I took a trip to Spain
Just a notebook in my hand
Then I went to see some friends of mine
Down in Florence, Alabama
[Chorus]
When you know, you know
When you know, you know
It's time, it's time to go
When you know, you know
That it's time to leave
Like the summer breeze
[Bridge]
When everyone's star is bright
Brighter than you are
It's time to go
And you're the only one left
Dancin' while they're on the floor
Time to go
[Verse 3]
I flew back home
It seems everything's the same (Venice, California)
Except that you weren't home
“Hello,” I call to no one (But)
Outro]
When you're home, you're home (Venice, California)
When you're home, you're home (Venice, California)
You're home, when you're alone
When you're right, you're right
When you're right, you're right
Even when you're wrong
I can keep this on repeat for a million years
Han So Hee made me listen to this🥺♡
Perfect
can’t wait for Lana to sing over this piano on her upcoming album Ocean Boulevard
Only 52 days 😭
ONLY 17 DAYS😭
@@rob1154 OMGGG. 16 days now!! I’m so excited for the new album
in 2 days OMG
@@saumonlps1085 yessss, we’re so close. OMFGG!!
Lana will be sampling this song on her song “Paris, Texas” on her upcoming album out March 24
It remids me a little bit of where's my love, and i'm living for that
I saw SYML's notif. I CLICKED.
Paris, Texas...
when you know, you know
its time, its time to go
Impressive 👏👏 👏 I’m happy Lana sang this, love that song ❤.
When they ask about my favorite i can't say SYML, because you're my little secret😌
I love that magic atmosphere this song has. And “Paris, Texas” gave this song the beautiful and sad voice and lyrics Lana put on this one.
I love this song because it feels like a survivors abuse story. ‘I wanted to leave’ is sad notes to a happy melody. Just like the real deal.
This music makes me think of my life, looking back to how much I’ve grown, thinking back to memories, difficult situations I’ve gone through that have made me stronger and the person I am today.. it’s truly beautiful.
Heard Lana is sampling this 🥺
0:42
The emotion that comes from just this single note. This song is crazy good 😍
Lana fits so perfectly in this audio!!! I love it
Thanks for letting Lana use this
I sill can’t believe Lana made a song out of this. It truly helped me move on in 2023🩵
looking forward to hearing the combination he and Lana made with this song so sensitive and beautifully deep
Somehow SYML just has the ability to make songs that feel like home and bring a sense of comfort. The songs are rain pitter pattering on leaves, making the mountains misty and the air damp. I feel alive when I listen.
“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger - something better, pushing right back.”
― Albert Camus
🥲
I hope SYML and sleeping at last teamup for a song. That would be fantastic
when you know you know …
This feels like a melancholic nostalgia.
This is therapy, this is what our souls crave for,the hug we long for,the smile we exhibit,the tears of joy,the fulfillment we desire. God bless you for making this melody!
Lana titling her sample 'Paris, Texas' hits way harder now that I know SYML wrote this song in Paris😅
Paris, texas💔😭
this song is exactly what i feel when saying good bye to someone or something, sad but happy, nostalgic and relieved, smiling through tears
I am so lucky that i found this channel
I cant explain the feelings i get when I listen to this ..it’s just overwhelming
Today I realised how much I don’t belong to My home.. and how much I wanna leave and start over..
Everywhere I go I don’t belong I don’t relate to anyone
I only wish to have My own space and peace.. it’s not too much to ask is it?
I’ve been planning for a long time to Leave with peace to save My soul from drowning.. please wish Me a happy and peaceful new life..
This is so relatable.
I feel you my friend... And I wish you a happy and peaceful chapter ahead of you. Where in the world do you live in? :)
This song reminds me something that I never lived, but it sounds familiar and obvious at the same time. An imaginary nostalgia that hits the present and make it past. Genius.
To the person who disliked this:
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU
maybe they were hoping for sad words instead of sad piano?
I guess they didn't want him to leave.
PARIS,TEXAS😭
this song feels like watching all of your memories go through like a movie. some kind of nostalgic and i would not say "sad" but actually, hopeful feeling, idk?? it's like "ok, i have been through all this...right. but i still feel empty"
Lana Del Rey using this gorgeous piece for the album is amazing💕💕
I don't know how to say it better. This song is that warm feeling when that one person looks at you in a way that changes your whole life. The warm, kind happiness what you feel when you finally accept the person who you really are.
I can't believe Lana used this
My heart can't 💔
Lana brought you guys to the top and I'm glad for that. Always loved fear of the water
i seriously can’t hear this song without crying my eyes out, i can’t even hear 1 second of it 😭 omfggg it’s just that beautiful 💔
Lana del Rey literally take this song to make another angelical song with her voice, can't believe, it's just beautiful, two genuinely artists together 💖😭
Every song is beautiful and pure I'm glad they're my little secret
Feels like the quietness of being underwater. Like I’m being hugged by the blanket of water all around me and above me. And I’m floating in the still quietness of it
I always felt bound to change. It is a weird feeling. You always want to move, evolve and transform. Yet, there is that nostalgic feeling when I leave. In those moments where I'm not completely gone and have not arrived to the next destination, I come to terms with what life really is. A journey.
especially when the whole world is in such a state of chaos and uncertainty, your music is truly a blessing ❤️
Facts🙏
It makes me feel like having a slow-dance in the rain all by myself, crying and feel peaceful at the same time. I can't describe enough how beautiful this song is. Thank you for make this.
Lana's upcoming album sample this piano melody!
Here for Paris, Texas
When you know you know, it's time to go
how can a melody be sad and happy at the same time?
I don't know why this making me miss things that I didn't have yet, but might loose in future. As we lose everything through our life and it's a normal process. Still it makes you feel not powerful, but gives you the energy to go through every sad moment and enjoy it ✨
I've heard this song before and I could distinguish it perfectly from Lana's new album, I love this song
When you know you know ❤
This song is so soothing. Every time i’m crying or on the edge of a breakdown i listen to it. And i feel better. No matter how hard it is. No matter how messed up the situation is, this song appeases my soul. It gives me hope, courage to hold on.
Thank you, for giving me something to live for
I have known this song for years and I always wanted it to be played at my funeral ofc I still do it's so peaceful
BRO THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL I'M CRYING---
lana brought me here. this is absolute perfection. just brilliant.
Hey you,
I want you to give yourself credit for how far you've come. How many hard times have you gone through. You are a strong a** soul. I understand how mentally tired you are, but it all is part of the process. You have become so strong. You are not the only one that struggles, we all do mate and it's okey, because it's natural. We believe in you❤️. Don't forget to take care of yourself. Grab a bottle of water and go outside💧. Have a nice day, bye 👋.
this song makes me think of watching my children grow and explore all the while having a parallel grief as they slowly leave my side and the loneliness that lives there as a mother (or father)
THIS is the melody to the feeling of “indifference”. Also, that feeling of being in a relationship, knowing you want to leave, the spark is gone..but you can’t leave because of the unknown. So you stay. And you remain indifferent towards the person you’re with…in hopes that the spark might return. But it never does. You’re neither in love nor hating him/her. So you’re stuck on the carousel 🎠…going up, down, and around. It’s neither thrilling nor exciting. But, at least it’s “something”.
I hope you're doing well Rebekah. This is coming from someone from Iran. Music connets us. :-)
ive been listening to this song everyday for about a year now. i'd love to attend an upcoming concert, but its 21+ :')
Essa música me trás conforto, como se eu tivesse encontrado um repouso. Um lar onde posso vir quando estiver desanimado. Então descanso até estar pronta para recomeçar, de novo...
Lanas voice fitted in this perfectly 😍❤️
Lana did it justice :')
Woke up to this. My day is already perfect. Thanks SYML.
Everything this man makes... is amazing, incredible, heartfelt, warming, special, elegant, and there’s so much more u can say about his music. I’m so glad people are discovering him and seeing who he is and his amazing voice. Beautiful
To me, this song sounds like exploring an attic on a rainy day in the summer. The smells of dust, old books, and petrichor mixing as the rain beats a tattoo on the roof and you try and piece together the stories of the lives that belonged to all these old, long- forgotten things.
This always reminds me of my emptiness
this music will be played as I walk down the aisle in my wedding
