Unobtainable

Robert James

This one was kicked off kind of late in the game. It was originally supposed to be acoustic guitars but I went for my Strat instead. Lots of sauce all over this recording. Rhythm parts were through a Vox MV50. Leads were a Les Paul through a Fender Bassbreaker.

See it in the distance
over the horizon
never getting closer
sort of mesmerizing

See it in the distance
always inaccessible
very far away now
Unobtainable

It’s like a goal you can’t reach
it’s like a rule you can’t teach
It’s like a song you can’t sing
It’s like a change you can’t bring

It’s like the moon ascending
It’s like a story ending
it’s like the ocean draining
it’s like a lie explaining

If I could only get to it
I’d know just what to do
