Love the progression into the chorus. Nice

My wife just asked if this was Tina Turner - reckon that's a big compliment. Amazing voice and a modern but classic sound.

Zen in linen shirts
They sap upon the day
Like every other morning star
Acceptable and fey
December dismembered my instruments
I can’t tell you that now
But I say

No Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
Anyway
No Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
Go away
Go the fuck away

Implicated 
I don’t know
I said myself a dozen times
Once or twice I fell below it
I remember bottom lines
But never being like you
Never being like you
I won’t “peace out, dude”
Away with you

Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
Anyway
No Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
No Jared Leto
Go away
Go the fuck away

No Jared Leto

Beautiful Dreams

Notes:

For this song, I challenged myself to use a looper and incorporate Teenage Engineering OP1 in symbiosis with Moog Mother and Moog Subharmonicon. In my mind: my voice and instruments created petioles.

In botany, the petiole is the stalk that attaches the leaf blade to the stem and can twist the leaf to face the sun.

Connecting all the feelings and words for this song to express and define my heart in 3 minutes 33 seconds became my petiole. I twist my heart to you all listening.

Working on this song has taken the walls down within the songwriting process for me. It opened a portal to expressing myself with total trust and flow, where I allow sound to take me, and what I want to say pours out with no pressure from anyone or anything. It is a particular song to me. It sets a clear direction for the LP to come. It is my therapy.

This is also the first time I address and sing about my eye disease, gently letting go of the pain that has caused me every day since I was born. The art cover represents double vision, as this is how I sometimes experience the world. I chose to live looping and looper as a technique many years ago because It helped me to create with eyes closed most of the time so that I could rest them as much as possible. My eyes get quickly tired, and I have a limit on how long I can read and spend time in front of the screens so my vision does not drastically worsen. It took me so many years to accept this song.

Szukam na stole morza oczu
Może nie widzę, a czuję wszystko

On a table, I am searching for a sea of eyes
Maybe I can't see, but I feel everything
