this is a song i wrote recently. as usual, i'm working on learning more and trying to improve my recording and mixing skills. it is not something that comes easily for me.
i usually do fairly stripped down recordings, often with only guitar and vocals but i thought i would try something a little more challenging so i added some other instrumentation.
though i'm posting this in "finished" I'm open to any and all criticism. I don't really consider the recording "finished" by any means, though the song itself is constructed and i doubt there will be any changes to the lyrics or structure... but who knows??? maybe one of you will have a dynamite bit of advise that i can employ. anyway, thanks for your time... and now... the lyrics;
make that worried face, up and disappear
let that hair down, and come here
its a fight, everybody goes through
its all right, everybody gets blue
i'm wrecked again, lost a good friend
such a hollow place, this vacant room
shine a light, shadows all around
my respite, never to be found
baby all i can say
is this mess that we make
its all we can take, all we can take when we go
away
gotta hold tight, to things that make us feel
gotta hold on tight, cause not that many things are real
shine a light, shadows all around
my respite, never to be found
baby all i can say
is this mess that we make
its all we can take, all we can take when we go
away
