I wrote the music first and afterwards added some text inspired by the music. No score display in the video this time as I wanted to experiment a bit with automating text overlays instead. Be sure to let me know if you want the score. The score does not look very difficult to play, but playing the repeated note evenly both in time and in volume while the rest is ongoing is challenging. The lyrics:

Darkness, drifting into the void.
Steerless, and no way to avoid
the cliffs.

Can someone out there hear my cry for help?
Lead me from this abyss.

Unclear, how did I end up here.
No signs, completely paralyzed
by fear.

Can someone out there hear my cry for help?
Lead me from this abyss, into bliss.

Shall I wait for light to guide?
Shadows finally defied?

Think of me.
