When I heard the learn'd
Astronomer
When the proofs, the figures
Were ranged in columns before me
How soon unaccountable I became
Tired and sick
Endless night
Brightness Hidden night
Soul ever need
Brightness Hidden night soul
Ever on call
Until rising and gliding out
I wander'd off by myself
In the mystical moist night air
And from time to time
Look'd up
In perfect silence at the stars
Try to get no one
To be shooting stars
Try to get no one
To be breaking stars
When I heard the learn'd
Astronomer
When the proofs, the figures
Were ranged in columns before me
How soon unaccountable I became
Tired and sick
Endless night
Brightness Hidden night
Soul ever need
Brightness Hidden night soul
Ever on call
Until rising and gliding out
I wander'd off by myself
In the mystical moist night air
And from time to time
Look'd up
In perfect silence at the stars
Try to get no one
To be shooting stars
Try to get no one
To be breaking stars

I wrote this song "Brightness" inspired by my favorite drama "Breaking Bad"where I met Walt Whitman's poem. I had a big inspiration and motivation from him.
music composed, played, sang and arranged by Chihiro Matsumoto(JETTT)
Lyrics quoted Walt Whitman's poem"When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer"of "leaves of Grass" plus my original phrases.
Artist Profile
JETTT
DIy style musician. I'm a Japanese singer songwriter. I compose, write, sing, play all the instruments by myself. Basically my music is acoustic sound and vocals, but now I'm trying to make my songs sound much more enjoyable and rhythmic for today's listeners around the world. All the sound is my own ideas. My lyrics are written in English because I'd like to communicate and share my music all around the world.
