new guitar (mahogany baby Taylor) soundcheck :) pardon the bad playing!
silly song has been evading me all day!! racked my brains and searched the itunes library to no avail before it hit me from nowhere - ‘Trust’ by Generationals!! supacatchy.
Once again I’m digging up something I recorded (and subsequently abandoned whilst unfinished) in February. Never managed to put lyrics to it since I am bad with words - someone should go take up the challenge! This is how I write Pop Music, heh.
something I dug up that I recorded 3 years ago, Yiruma cover. Not that I really dig his music!
a little something I’ve been working on, alert: VERY RAW. I don’t even know what to name it! ideas?
p.s. I suck at scoring for drums!!
The Antlers’ works epitomize ‘depressingly beautiful’. This is a song from the album ‘Hospice’, I think it’s about some kinda terminal illness.
That there was nothing that I could do to save you,
the choir’s gonna sing, and this thing is gonna kill you.
Something in my throat made my next words shake,
and something in the wires made the light bulbs break.
There was glass inside my feet and raining down from the ceiling,
it opened up the scars that had just finished healing.
It tore apart the canyon running down your femur,
I thought that it was beautiful, it made me a believer.
And as it opened I could hear you howling from your room,
but I hid out in the hall until the hurricane blew.
When I reappeared and tried to give you something for the pain,
you came to hating me again and just sang your refrain
