Its easy to get carried by a moment
Create what isn’t there
Hope that we can make things right
But life is rarely fair
But when we dug down real deep
We saw no guiding light
And in this simple reality
We had nothing but the night…

2021 5090 Song Number 20.
This one isn't too bad. I think it's the only song for this project so far that I wrote the melody first. I've had mixed results with that method (I'm definitely a music first guy) but this one works.

70-75 beats per minute is sort of my happy place. My groove's comfort zone if you will. If I didn't stop myself, I'd write everything at that tempo. This summer I have done a pretty good job avoiding it. So much…

Its her for sure i see her there

Deep down that feeling inside

I turned my face to the sun
And my shadows fell behind me
I opened up my heart

The world has turned around
Im getting back in sync

I remember the time i was someone

Written summer of 2020. Now that 2020 is hindsight, this still rings true. I'm still angry.

Same device as Swirling Down, but different playing technique. Mostly finger-plucking two strings at a time. Came out a lot more rhythmic - and melodic! - than I had expected. Also submitted to Sound-In "The Void" for 19-26/8/2021.

Power trios have always been my favorite kind of rock band. I like them so much, I'm in one. This was written for them, but with the pandemic and our minuscule practice studio, I did this at home, all by myself.

She gets on with life as a socialite
a dismissive kind of person.
She likes shopping on Sundays,
And bitching in the week.
She likes to contemplate about herself
Her make up and her clothes
But that's not what's in her dreams
