This song has a heart if nothing else. That's good enough for me

Sing Along :


I've lost my way to lock the door

I pray that they're across the kitchen floor

I search, I'm looking for my keys

I'm back up on my knees, I've found them so I'm free


I lock my door on a weekday

I brace myself so I can hide away

From things that make me real upset

Like deep pain and regret and lonely dark sunsets


I haven't been ok in weeks

My spoons have overflown the kitchen sink

I try to write on what I know

Progress is moving slow not getting any younger or wiser


Now hear about how my pen met paper

And groan being alone and stuff blah blah ...


I once was taught art therapy

Drew hands for thirty minutes ever week

And then when I got used to it the program went and quit

Got stuck thinking of it in the summer


That was twenty years ago

Time's passed the seasons brought a lot of snow

I left the city of my birth

To face something that's worse ; That's better left unsaid ...


I lock my door on a weekday

I brace myself so I can hide away

From things that make me real upset

Like deep pain and regret and lonely dark sunsets


I haven't been ok in weeks

My spoons have overflown the kitchen sink

I try to write on what I know

Progress is moving slow not getting any younger or wiser man.

I like how you can't hear the words, but while reading 'Sing Along' it instantly makes sense. And the synth perfectly fits with the voice and style. This song is now one of my top favorites :)

LexRodent responds:

Glad you enjoyed it !
I get what you mean , it's a pretty curious perception phenomenon.
When you learn the lyrics you can hear them clearly too :o

I always love that kinda "bitcrusher" sound. I really enjoy the chord progression, particularly at around 1:15 to that fill at around 1:39. Very smooth

LexRodent responds:

Thanks for listening man.
Bitcrushed overdrive goes hand in hand with chiptune-like synths.
Glad to know it as the right choice to give this one a lo-fi touch.
