Liner Notes

#acousticonetake #acousticrock
However spiritually strong we are, we all need protection from the world.

I posted the original demo an hour after the skirmish. This demo is a slightly improved performance from the following morning.

Lyrics

It happens when
You’re already down
On the floor
That’s the sound
Of the world
Knocking at your door

Now listen
Miss Inner Peace
Miss Inner Fight
Miss Inner Voice
Miss Inner Light

Life is upside down
And inside out
Angels whisper
You might have to shout
Take a moment
Take a breath
Promises broken
Till there’s nothing left
Still they want to come around
And turn you upside down

It’s not your fault
The way they
Treated you so bad
You could be a saint
They wouldn’t know
What they had

But listen
Miss Inner Peace
Miss Inner Fight
Miss Inner Voice
Miss Inner Light

Life is upside down
And inside out
Angels whisper
You might have to shout
Take a moment
Take a breath
Promises broken
Till there’s nothing left
Still they want to come around
And turn you upside down

You can only stretch so far
Then you have to come back
To where you are

Now listen
Miss Inner Peace
Miss Inner Fight
Miss Inner Voice
Miss Inner Light
Miss Inner Peace
Miss Inner Fight
Miss Inner Voice
Miss Inner Light
Miss Inner Peace
Miss Inner Fight
Miss Inner Voice
Miss Inner Light

Really good writing! Solid set of lyrics that land well, my favourite lines amongst all these very good ones are, angels whisper you might have to shout. The musical setting is great too.

Nice melody and lyrics! I really like the line "You can only stretch so far Then you have to come back To where you are." It just a reminder that no matter how hard we try to conform to others expectations of ourselves, we can only truly be who we are.
