My friends.

Now that I'm back to my lil room studio. I've had a lot of time to work on music. Too bad I was having writers block. Fortunately... I find that in these times, I often make my best work. So out from the ashes... this song was born. It started with me playing with some vocal effects and applying them to an old song I was writing. After a while I had completely transformed my work into what I feel is one of my most impressive songs to date. I'll leave the lyrics open to interpretation, but I feel I should also make a music video to this, just to give the visual I was feeling when writing it.

Anywho... since you're probably listening to it already. You'll likely want the lyrics...

-=Verse 1 =-
Live Strong
Run Free
Die Well
But you cannot escape
Reality

-=Chorus=-
This is where we cried
Today
Tombstone of a
castaway
The sky is set in
Shades of gray
Cause here you lay

Even if I was the key
I could never set you free
The sky is set in shades of gray
Cuz here you lay

-=Verse 2=-
Broken lives
and tainted hearts
I Can't go back
To where it starts
I Can't go home
Can't go home

-=Chorus=-
This is where we cried
Today
tombstone of a
castaway
The sky is set in
Shades of gray
Cuz here you lay

Even if I was the key
I could never set you free
The sky is set in shades of gray
Cuz here you lay

Here you lay
oooOoo...

You complete this piece with your voice! I heard this about a year ago, it sent shivers down my spine as I listened. I love coming here to enjoy your hard work. Once again simply amazing music.

"This should have a much better score."

date: June 16, 2009

I'm a little disappointed to see that this isn't higher up in the scoring. This piece is done fantastically. The lyrics and instrumentation are wonderful. I think the only like, hiccup I think I've found in the song is that in the first chorus when you sing "Even if I was the key" it seems to be very slightly delayed to the rest of the track. But seriously, this is great! Keep writing!
