Liner Notes

Just trying to work it out some feelings to the insanity that is reality now. I think this needs to be a lot faster and of course it needs some drums. I have a hard time keeping time without drums. But that gives it some character and you know for sure this is not AI. lol
Rough draft y'all. Words and patterns subject to change, but I wanted to get something down. Cuz I'm a leetle beeehind getting things posted.

Lyrics

In the sky
hope to die
up high
up high

On the ground
all around
we fall
we fall

Overwhelmed
going numb
day after day
day after day

It's a take over
Can we stay sober
In money we trust
In money we trust

It's a nightmare
It's a nightmare
You do solemnly swear
You do solemnly swear

Saving yourself
No one else with your
lies lies lies lies

We made you
We can break you
We are coming to take you down

We made you
We can break you
We are coming to take you down

You do such a great job at the vocal layering. It's something I need to experiment more with. I think I've just been inspired.

@kdogg - do it! Make it faster and louder!

I like this - guitar sound and vocals are great, has a verruca salt vibe for me. Alt 90s ftw! Can hear this rocking hard with a drum track under it

@iwilleatyou Thanks! I'll try to clean up the track a bit. The timing is a bit wonky. It'd be great to give it some muscle. I feel like it should be a little faster and louder but I always think that.

This is good! If you need drums and bass let me know. All i need is the vocal and guitar track or stems if you want me to mix it. Have it at the speed you want and let me know the bpm of the song. Also at least a four bar count in. Off the bat I'd stretch the song a tad. Maybe sing the chorus again.

I love this - it’s so cool, it sounds like the Breeders. I’m totally jealous of this song. I wish I still had a drum kit as I’d love to crash along to this. I have song envy now. Must go and pick up my guitar and think alternative 90s..
