Tears To Shed [Corpse Bride] Lydia Faulkner | Cover

Hellooo! I hope you have all had nice start to the new year.

So, I haven't been singing much lately after I had covid back during Christmas time. For some reason or another, although I am Covid free I still have lasting symptoms and seem to struggle with my chest and have a rather dodgy throat. Hopefully this shall pass.

Anyhow, I have been trying to retrain myself singing wise as naturally my voice has become very tired. I was frustrated that I had nothing to post, until I found this little cover I did around a year back. I don't know about any of you however I am a Tim Burton fan, and adore it when he collaborates with Danny Elfman.

I don't know why I didn't post this sooner- it is purely a character piece. So singing "perfectly" was not a priority. I adore voice acting and hope to pursue it if I'm fortunate enough and work hard enough.

I have hit 245 Subscribers.. whereas to others that number is small, it honestly means the absolute world and are shocked that others actually enjoy my butchering of songs. Thank you so much!

Anyhow, I hope you all enjoy my cover of Tears To Shed

Stay Safe!

LYRICS

MAGGOT: What does that wispy little brat have that you don't have double?
BLACK WIDOW: She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile

EMILY: How about a pulse?
MAGGOT: Overrated by a mile
BLACK WIDOW: Overbearing
MAGGOT: Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW: If he only knew the you that we know

Emily: sigh

BLACK WIDOW:And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring
MAGGOT: And she doesn't play piano
BLACK WIDOW: Or dance
MAGGOT: Or sing
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW: No she doesn't compare

EMILY: But she still breathes air!
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW: Who cares?
MAGGOT: Unimportant
BLACK WIDOW: Overrated
MAGGOT: Overblown

MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW: If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

EMILY: If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
If you cut me with a knife it's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
It seems that I still have a tear to shed

MAGGOT: The sure redeeming feature
From that little creature
Is that she's alive
BLACK WIDOW: Overrated
MAGGOT: Overblown
BLACK WIDOW: Everybody know that's just a temporary state
Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate

MAGGOT: Who cares?
BLACK WIDOW: Unimportant
MAGGOT: Overrated
BLACK WIDOW: Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW: If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

EMILY: If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
In the ice or in the sun it's all the same
Yet I feel my heart is aching
Though it doesn't beat it's breaking
And the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
I know that I am dead
Yet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
