"Summer, summer's in the air, feels nice,
There's givers, and takers everywhere seems like,
Catching the drift, rolling down the stairs, feels right,
Work up a sweat, never seems to help, never...
The colors are breaking up the waves, and finally can see, theres nothing here for me,"

 the good parts and bad parts of summer

Wooo, is this exciting! This is my firsty first most firstly ever original song to be recorded in an actual studio. While spending the day with some nautical new buddies, putting down some vocals on their projects, we had some little extra time, and we were able to record this! Thank you to Peter Novoa for recording and to Karter Mycroft for mixing this here little diddy. 

So about "Pura Vida." This was a song I wrote over two years ago. One that I had most of the lyrics down, and  one which the lyrics slowly collected dust and sand and dead skin cells, until one day I finally decided to dust it off and give it new life. I really enjoy performing this song because this is one of the first songs that I started performing that I can let loose vocally. It always kind of jolts people into seeing me for a second first time, and I like that.

Let me know what you think! I hope you enjoy c:

Lyrics:

You precious baby
you poor little pearl
They tell you you're crazy,
Oh, but they still want your world

You try to be honest
You try to be kind
Try not to feel worthless
Or be out of your mind

Five days, still sober
But then who's keeping time
And you could drink til it's over
Or confront your own mind

Well, what makes you happy
and why do you look so sad
Well don't ya got all that you need
And is it truly that bad

Could you just imagine
How bad it would be
If I was the worst you
If you were the worst me

What's in the bottle
Well what cha got in the bag
