It is a lament.
A sorrow hymn. A melancholic melody.
It has a medieval feeling that I like, a bit of a game nerd I suppose.
That is my interpretation. A lament.

A piano lament.
I want to play like him. Maybe one day. But for now I lament all the laziness I had in Primary School. I can blame it on caning and people not teaching me how to appreciate music, but I am at fault definitely.
I lament my inaptitude in musical instruments and laziness. Now I can only sorrowfully listen to the beauty of hard work and talent in all this young musicians.

A chinese lament
Today during the paper I totally fell into an epic mood-swing when I found myself re-reading the same text 5 times. Instead of tackling questions I started to tackle why I just bloody suck at chinese and why I didn't study harder last time and why after I promised to work hard in Sec 4 because I didn't retake and get an A. And how will I live with the fact that despite being OK at the rest of my subjects, on par in some ways (even though it already seems below standards) my biggest disadvantage is my horrible chinese. And since it is academic in nature I will always have a tarnish on my report card and be a failure failure compared to my classmates. Inferior and just not as smart. Yes that was a whole lot of depressing thoughts. It is awful for me to say this but perhaps in my little head I was stuck with the idea that I was above average, the cream of the crop in Singapore, but I am utterly not. I had big dreams of changing the country, moving people, making a difference, but for now, they will be washed away by the tide of negativity. The waves will come back and the next time it does I will ride it into open sea. For it is said, "A docked galleon will never discover new shores." (Paraphrased, forgot the source)

A lament for God
It is only in times of adversary and fear that we grapple for Him. Why must is be so, and woe to the man who admits this not. I am closest to God in music.

A timeless lament of time
Economics sucks. Not the subject, no. I like the subject in some ways. No, the whole study of it, is centered around something that sucks. Opportunity cost. And my oh my it has cost so much. So much time wasted in my childhood enjoying it. Woah woah hold up, that's a bad thing? Yes. Look at the people who did not waste it. They learned guitar, they read chinese books. I was playing computer. I still do in my spare time.

A lament of childhood
And yet I miss those days of pure Runescape and Age of Mythology and whatnot. Where have they gone? Were they ever appreciated? Up till now, a kind of nostalgic remembrance in my playlist dashed with songs from different soundtracks that made my life. They are my lonely tribute to something I always want to remember. A childhood.

A lament of lamenting
I. Miss. Singing. To. An. Actual. Audience. Who. Wants. To. Hear. Me. Sing. The saddest part of a choir is that the songs become ineffectual when you are alone.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lament of poetry
When you're too scared to say it. When you're just in the moment. When you're thoughts scramble from whimsical gibberish into stylistic writing, when you lose all your friends and gain yourself.
The Outlier
In tundra the fire
In Cathedrals the choir
In kingdoms the shire
Amongst them all you are the outlier
Dissolving my ire
And lifting me higher
You are my most complementary attire
So I'll build you a pyre and love you without hire.
I just pray you're a replier.
