#line 3 doesn't always have to be a couplet but it sounds better if it is. this line is for describing the loved one's qualities that you

[voltas-do-mar]

bring me home / bring me home thoughts of you will bring me home as the sun may rise with crashing tides oh, you will bring me home

oh, at home there's my darling [The name here is muffled. Two syllables.] and i miss him all day long he has strange style / but he makes me smile and for him i will stay strong

#skillsposting #radio station: volta original #one volta a day #history facts for this volta: this song is known as ''Bring Me Home'' with no known original artist. #a popular group shanty where different crew members would individually sing the second verse before rejoining for the group chorus #its first recorded use was on the Graadian sea vessel ''The Irbis Infallible'' in order to keep the crew awake during a long night of the #revolution. The song was sung for an hour and a half as the 23 crew members went down a list of family members; lovers and friends #the verses works like this: after the chorus an individual would start the ''oh'' to signal they wanted to sing. (if two or more people #started singing at the same time then it's in order of seniority on the vessel; older crew member goes first). depending on the syllables #in the loved one's name or the adjective/title they want to use (''my darling'' is just the song's standard) they'd alter the first line #lines 2 and 4 of the verse (''and i miss'' and ''and for him'') are usually the same besides switching out appropriate pronouns #line 3 doesn't always have to be a couplet but it sounds better if it is. this line is for describing the loved one's qualities that you #remember fondly. since pale exposure messes with the mind; to be able to remember little details about them in song boosts memory #after the verse everyone rejoins for the ''bring me home'' chorus and the cycle repeats. #the lieutenant has had this verse planned since the day after the tribunal. he has an old one for... someone else. and one for DeMettrie. #(DeMettrie also has a verse thought out for him. in the first line she stretches out his name to ''Kimmy'' to better fit the meter #in the past they made a game of increasingly adding titles/endearments to the point where they have to speed through to fit the meter #''at home there's my darlinglieutenantkimmykitsuragi~!'' ''at home there's my dearestdarlingcommunicationsofficeralicedemettrie'') #ooc oh this was not supposed to be this long. i love making fake lore for songs.
