"Caring for Carin" is an Adult Contemporary / Ballad song by the Australian virtual band Neon and the Argie Bees. It is a slow chamber pop track that is loosely based on the lore of The-F0X's characters, Carin, Drake, and Kitty.

Accompanied by a separate instrumental outro track, it is due for release on the Four for F0X EP, alongside "Poem for a Poet" and "A Ballad for Kari & Sketch".

Background

In May 2022, NeonWabbit wrote demos for a The-F0X fanart gift project, which included "Caring for Carin", alongside other tracks like "Academons", and "The Pitter Patter of Drake's Draken Feetsies Running Towards You". As these tracks were composed during The Argie Bees' "second hiatus", they were forgetten about until a few years later, when it was decided to redevelop them.

Composition

The main ballad track seamlessly transitions into its separate orchestral outro track. Both tracks have a constant tempo rate of 124.8 BPM.

Lyrics

In the morning's gentle light,
A princess wakes from the night.
Hearing draken's hungry call,
That echoes through Abaddon hall.
Down the halls of castle stone,
To a breakfast feast, then left alone.

By the fireplace with light so bright,
The princess Carin rests 'gainst her draken's side.
Drake's her draken, his red scales gleam,
Kitty, the rabbit plush, together a team.

Drake, with wings so strong and wide,
Kitty with secrets tucked inside.
Together they protect and care,
For Carin, they’ll be always there.

Caring for Carin, through storm and sun,
Guarding her joy till the day is done.
Drake with might and Kitty with heart,
Keeping her safe, never apart.
Through every challenge, their bond is strong,
Their purpose clear, their task lifelong.

Drake, once small, full of delight,
Stayed near Cari, day and night.
Now he's grown, visits her throne,
She'll still pet him with a sigh and a groan.

The three roam free, through castle halls,
Kitty in her arms, soft and small.
He's not really a bunny, and neither a hare,
But her long-eared defenders, they'll both be there.

Caring for Carin, through storm and sun,
Guarding her joy till the day is done.
Drake with might and Kitty with heart,
Keeping her safe, never apart.
Through every challenge, their bond is strong,
Their purpose clear, their task lifelong.

In the twilight’s gentle hue,
A bond unwavering, forever true.
Drake and Kitty, by her side,
In their presence, she finds her stride.

Kitty hugged close, ever so near,
Facing each day without any fear.
When danger comes, Kitty grows tall,
Protecting Carin, through it all.

Drake the draken, with fiery breath,
Guarding her well, defending from death.
Flying high, their spirits soar,
Together brave, forevermore.

Caring for Carin, through storm and sun,
Guarding her joy till the day is done.
Drake with might and Kitty with heart,
Keeping her safe, never apart.
Through every challenge, their bond is strong,
Their purpose clear, their task lifelong.

Ruin and Cari, with trust so kind,
Believe in the guardians they’ve assigned.
In the castle Abaddon, out of sight,
Carin preps for bed, her future bright.
Caring for Carin, from gentle morning light,
Caring for Carin, every day and night.
