Through the Haze

Liner Notes

It's said that the mind is a terrible thing to waste, and that every stage of life has its own rewards. So true on paper yet often clouded and unforeseen in the throes of it all. Such was the impetus for this lyric.

Lyrics

V
In through the out door
Nothing ever satisfies
All past what has to be
Holding court on insanity

Ch
Looking for tomorrows
And chasing yesterdays
Instant forevers
All through the haze

V
Sorrows marching
In perfect line
How sublime
Precious time

Br
And still seeking
Blind along the way
Brings that happy day

V
In step with shadow
All passage chimes
Rooted beyond
Evey drawn line

Ch
Looking for tomorrows
And chasing yesterdays
Instant forevers
All through the haze

I’m really enjoying reading through your lyrics. You have such a great penchant for not forcing a rhyme, but making it catchy and memorable. Very cool.

Hmmm.... #folk , eh? Hmmm... sure it isn't #punkska ? :)
Although, acoustic punk in the vein of The Violent Femmes may be the way with this, or even in the vein of their "Good Feeling", bit o piano and acoustic chords, nice sparse violin solo...

However your words, as always, are most excellent. I almost expected an 'up the down staircase' after the first line, but maybe just memories of being in that play inserting themselves? I hope someone puts this to sounds for you, if you want I'll take a stab, you know, I do kind of stab them! :)

Like the message and hook of this lyric. The simple short verses and chorus makes it easy to follow. Great Job!

Really diggin' the chorus... like the whole piece and mood it immediately sets. Thoughts on musical treatment?
