So if you’ve been reading you’ll know that i was making instrumental tracks and having writers block lyrically, but today i came up with some for the 11th track (in the series of 12). i like to show my work when i make music, like one of those math tests where you show how you figured out what Y is, because i love when musicians i like do that kind of thing. not that i’m a musician i just know how to use technology.
So it’s about not being able to stand sitting with yourself and jumping into any relationship (or the situationship) you can to avoid it, even if it isn’t necessarily a good one. The lyrics and vocals need work but i was able to make this reverse guitar tone from the fruityloops synths to do the solo that closes the track, and i just love how it sounds, it blends well with the arpeggio synth lines. It’s a from a thing i learned in piano lessons last Friday: atonality , because the notes aren’t the ones that make logical sense as far as the key of the track goes, but they still work.
i’m gonna hate it and be embarassed around noon, but right now i think it’s great.
Heres the lyrics, if you have any suggestions to work it out please email me Ev.penk7@gmail.com
NOT EVEN FOR A MINUTE
look at you beside yourself
you cannot live inside yourself
even for a minute
if it looks sad from where you stand…man
just wait until youre in it
and this is only the beginning
theres no winning
the scary thoughts that mean you harm
you seek shelter in another set of arms
but all you get is getting gone
but you cannot stand to be alone
you were looking for a friend you were looking for a home
because you cannot stand to be alone
you end up in that place again
where you find out that it never ends
but you know
you’re going to do it again
