Trying some new areas of my range that I haven't before.
progressive alternative rock acoustic solo music
This is me - my life in the form of music. Although my favorite type of music is progressive rock, I also liking writing solo acoustic songs, and have made some attempts at creating a few techno/industrial instrumental songs.
Story behind the song
For Toby, and all of the other kids in Cuero - thank you for listening.
Lyrics
You once told me you had always loved me,
I wept with joy at what you said,
My sadness was not there, it was so lovely,
And now here I am without you, completely dead.
The sky was with an early sunrise burning,
Yet still with ample darkness from the moon,
Which holds the secrets of youthful yearning,
That youthful yearning, which would vanish soon.
How quickly it went away,
How strange to see all the grays…
I saw the truth of it within your eyes,
Blessed be the dream that ends but never dies,
I tried to grab hold and make it stay,
To carry us through the lines of darker days.
I wept with joy at what you said,
My sadness was not there, it was so lovely,
And now here I am without you, completely dead.
How wonderful, I thought, at last to hear you,
Say what I had known but never heard!
Now abandoned, I long to be near you,
Instead I find my long-lost refuge in these words.
How quickly it went away,
How strange to see all the grays…
I saw the truth of it within your eyes,
Blessed be the dream that ends but never dies,
I tried to grab hold and make it stay,
To carry us through the lines of darker days.
Through darker days,
I wish I could pull myself through the pain,
I wish I could pull myself through…
