Hi everyone I hope we are all well. Here's a first draft demo of a new song that i'm working on called 'Treading Water'. The timing is off in places and they lyrics need tidying up. I'm posting to get your thoughts on the song. It's about a local beauty spot where I actually met my girlfriend, you can get married at a venue there but it is also sadly a suicide hotspot. It's written from the point of few of someone standing on a bridge looking down. I had the chorus lyrics for a while and the verses are just what popped into my head while I was recording so they do need sorting out.
Everything looks so small
Catch me if I fall
Catch me if I fall
The place where I took your hand
Don't you understand
You won't understand
Chrous
I'm just treading water
Don't know should I sink or swim
But I oughta let you know
That I am going in
I'm just treading water
Don't know should I sink or swim
I'm gonna let you know it's gonna begin
2nd verse
Like the stain in your shirt i'll never come out
There is no doubt
There is no doubt
Live this life on my own
Don't ask me to grow
Don't ask me to grow
