Analysis of Saša Milivojev - THE PIANO

Saša Milivojev 1986 (Serbia)



My life is in C minor
Lost in harmony
It urges me to remember
To rise and fly again
To show I know how to love
That which dominates
And plays with me
To give up
To resolve
To turn into stone
I’m a cursed C minor
Sing through me
If you sing E
I am here
If you sing A
I am modulated  
And a new life begins
Everything takes a different shade of sorrow
While they laugh at me
For adorning myself with A minor
Hey
I closed the piano lid
And echoed away into silence
In order to return in three years
To open the lid and know forever
That my soul sings in C minor
