In Your Head

Ricia Rae

Song #9 for my RPM album. Back to using my bass as the back bone for this one. Vocals were recorded in one shot like a live recording (not easy to catch my breath in between phrases sometimes…eek). Made up a harmony for the last chorus…that was fun (lots of trial & error singing for that). Coming to the end!

rolling through the ocean
bottom of the sea
diving down to something
trying to make it deep

held your breath
a little long
and fall asleep
you’re under the table
under the table

did your best to be a friend
they didn’t want to
ran around in circles
but they didn’t want you

told yourself a lie
and now you’re really onto
something alive
something inside…

I know this ain’t right….
a little longer
I know this ain’t right

just try a little harder
hold yourself together
strip, put down the bed
draw the curtains over
put away the bottles
two hits to the shoulder
and now you know that you are really getting older
everything now, now is spinning-faster
I may not live long, no here and/or after
you took what you thought, you thought would really matter
watch the pieces - oh how they shatter

I know this ain’t right….
A little longer
I know this ain’t right….
Just A little longer

walking through the city
losing your direction
now you find yourself
alone with your reflection
but these are all the parts
that You shouldn’t of mention
you shouldn’t say
you shouldn’t say
you shouldn’t ……

tried your best to get
everything to work
you didn’t think you’d Find
yourself alone and hurt
and when the buzz is over
and you’re feeling worse
it’s all in your head
all in your head
all in…..

I know this ain’t right….
a little harder
I know this ain’t right

I know this ain’t right
a litte longer
hold yourself together now
I know this ain’t right
…
