When Mira Mercer placed the lyrics and music for “Echoes of Her” and “Silent Comet” in front of her teacher, Lania Brooks studied them several times over.
“Are you sure you wrote these two songs?”
Mira shamelessly replied, “Yes.”
Then she feigned modesty. “So? Are they any good?”
This was the advantage of being reborn. Later, when she had time, she would compile a list of famous songs from the next few years to sell for a nice profit.
“Good? They’re more than good. They’re fantastic. You could be a professional songwriter.”
With that, Lania Brooks picked up her guitar and began to sing.
"For those who wander, those on the open road,
Are you moving on? Just go, let it be...
For the fragile, for the proud,
I was once just like you.
For the restless, for the wild at heart...
While writing the songs, Mira had tweaked some of the original lyrics and melodies based on her own feelings, making them even more captivating. “Echoes of Her” was a profound depiction of realism, telling a down-to-earth story about the workplace.
Lania’s deep, weathered voice brought out the helplessness and despair she had once felt, reminding her of the times she was ostracized and blacklisted by the industry.
Mira, in turn, was reminded of her own tragic experiences from her past life…
Soon, both were lost in the profound lyrics and moving melodies.
I have crossed mountains and the sea
And passed through crowds of endless faces
Everything I ever thought I had
Vanished in a puff of smoke
I have been lost and disappointed…
The original was a classic folk song, celebrated for its deep meaning and the emotional impact it had on listeners.
