Inspired by CG5, this song is all about Poppy Playtime Chapter 3, particularly Catnap's Cult and how one might find a way out.
Thank you all so much for 10k subscribers! As I'm sure you could tell I put a LOT of effort into this! Full animation on some parts, editing gameplay AND animation together, getting instrumentals, and even having to sing it myself! (Got some folks to help me pitch correct seeing as, given I've never sung before prior to this, it was initially pretty off-tone.)
I'm super proud of how this turned out, and put a lot of effort into the visuals and lyrics (there's lots of little references in there/plays on words that I'm very happy to have come up with! ESPECIALLY the "Rest in Peace" line and the whole section with the critters.)
I hope you all love it as much as I do! And if you loved it a WHOLE lot, be sure to leave a like, comment, and share it around!

LYRICS:
Walk, as the hours turn to dawn,
Do your best to carry on,
Even when there’s something wrong,
May your worries soon be gone.
If you their watchful eyes
Do your best to just comply
For the gift is drawing nigh,
He calls me
“Hear me speak, l’est the end be bleak”
“For they wish to make it be
another Pirouettetic Melody”
It’s truth you seek? Then it’s time for sleep.
For the sheep I’ll more than gladly gift it
Readily,
Come to me.
Someday, someday, won't you let me find a way?
Out of this Nightmare,
I can't bear
to find an escape?
So let me Daydream
of somewhere warm and bright for the day
And finally sleep some of these nightmares away
in the Hour of Vain
[Instrumental with the Guitar Riffs]
Don't kneel down and run away,
either way you'll know your place,
though I've slept away the day,
still my mind's a messy haze
In my heart it's there I see,
there is something wrong with me,
still the cat finally decrees,
He calls me.
“The truth you seek is to rest in peace,”
So the "he" and the "me"
Could no longer stray away,
Advoco Nox (Latin for: "I summon the night/I call the dark")
In the end there's only me,
and this Edan that I seek
"Count your dead and follow me"
"Bide your time and go to sleep"
He is the only hope I had in this place
Inside this Nightmare,
I can't bear
to find my own way?
So let me Daydream
of somewhere nice and soft for the day
And finally sleep some of these nightmares away
in the Hour of Vain
[Instrumental]
This is the ending that you wanted to save?
with all these blood smells and prison cells,
you wanted to make?
Maybe if I looked a little closer, could I’ve gotten to say?
That I may have wasted too much time,
Mulling through the light of the day?
Someday, someday, won't you let me find a way?
Out of this Nightmare,
I can't bear
to find an escape?
So let me Daydream
of somewhere warm and bright for the day
And finally dream some of these nightmares away
in the Hour of—
–If this is the waking world
I'll find my own way,
Inside this Nightmare,
I can't bear
and find an escape
Maybe I'll awake
from this Factory and see a new day?
But I know I won't be missin'
This sacred old tradition
Today

we making it out of da playcare with dis one 💀💀
It's clear there was a lot of effort put into this. Not only is it a great song but it also sounds super good for a First song.
honestly, i never expected you to make a song. even though ive never really tended to like CG5-esque songs this is really good! while i do think your singing voice could still use work, i overall love the song.
0:52 POP OFF HOPPY POP OFF
LOVE THIS!!!! YIPPII! GREAT JOB ON THIS!!! CONGRATS ON 10k
I am actually obsessed with this song. I've been listening to it on repeat its gonna haunt my brain for the next WEEK/pos I adore your content you deserve 10k!
The hour of vibeing is here
Alright this is going into my fav playlist
You are such a Grear God damn singing, I loved it!
ive had this song stuck in my head for hours help
Yoooooo you have a great singing voice damn this is a great song.
that was incredibly charming, and shockingly high quality for someones first time singing. i wish i could use all the words i know to make a clever complement, but im a dumbass, so ill just steal a quote: "You were good son, maybe even the best." - The Soldier, TF2
My fav lyric is the hour of vain it just shows what happend here the the hour where the darkest moment happend this song is perfect it shows the lore and has amazing visuals and beats keep going cutcafe!
I have watched this multiple times
Moral Of The Story If you get a note about how all your coworkers disappeared 10 years ago and want you to find a flower just don't.
Catnap lost his tail lol Gret song, you did such a good job for you first time singing Also, sorry for not commenting when you released it, it was late and I had school :/
Proper critique here, theoretically you have good musical basis, got your musical hooks and so on, the 'design' of the song is good, even the lyrics arn't too shabby. Obviously a little passion project and its a great first start. While this isn't going to be put on my playlist any time soon, I've heard 'much' worse from more skilled people (or those who had more money for autotune). Though really if you do have a passion for this, I highly suggest you do voice training at the very least. When you start trying to do proper singing, that's actually quite tough on your voice, so last thing I want to hear is you accidentally screwing up your voice if you continue trying to do songs. This will also help with the general 'youtube commentary' thing, developing your voice, accents, and general voice acting. Second, and this isn't an insult. Auto-tune is your friend. It might be considered cheating, but it isn't, its a tool used by professionals in practically every modern song. Specifically so that instead of doing a single line in 20 takes to get the pitch just right, it only takes like... 5. Its only 'cheating' if you have it do all the hard work, and even then thats not the case a good chunk of the time cause people use the 'auto tune distortion' as a creative effect. ((Also, I say Auto-Tune cause thats the name of the popular software, there are many other more affordable or even free variants that you can acquire)) With that said, I cant wait to hear how your next one is going to end up like. :D
This is amazing, never expected you to make an original song, it’s so cool
This is great! Good job on 10,000 subs!
