Glad I didn't miss the ending. "mmm-hm!" This is such a good song.

I feel like I know this story exactly.. :)  Did you make this entire song yesterday or did you have parts if it in store?

Brian! wow! what an absolute beaut, where's the Brian Funk unplugged album! Great guitar, and heartfelt lyrics

@novemblur
baby i'm watching you
no one can top you love
when we're in public, do you think that they're watching us; we're so fucking weird
you freeze me up just like headlights to a deer
all the weird stuff we do when nobody's near
you falling out of love with me
is the only thing that i fear
but the other way around, it just wont happen my dear
hoping that shit aint near
no you can't leave me here
i know the end is near

@muertemuerte
You swear u a saint
Is it me to blame for this
Hella scars way I slit my wrist
Hella scars way I slit my wrist

Is it my fault, wish u told me that u felt like this
Is it my fault, wish u told me that u felt like this

Ur dead
Ur dead to me
Ur dead
Ur dead to me

@novemblur @muertemuerte - weird

#jamuary2025 day 2 
Day 2: "Fresh Horizons"
Activity: Experiment with a plugin, instrument, or sample pack you’ve never used before or haven’t explored much. Let curiosity guide you.
Philosophy to Keep in Mind: "The most important thing is to decide. Decide and the rest falls away."

It's been a while since I just made a song on the acoustic guitar, so it felt like "Fresh Horizons." 

Lyrics:
I made up my mind 
Now is the time
I won't wait any longer
I'll do it tonight
Later tonight
I won't wait any longer
This time I'll try
I'm going to give it my all
This time I can't hide
Behind a lack of effort
I'm on a mission
Looking for some truth
Now I'm in a condition
I got scared
What if I should fall
Will my grave read "here lies another lifeless failure
Always too scared to try life passed him by no refund
Always going to do it one day
Never enough time
Always too tired
So leave the real things behind"
I made up my mind

5 54 Hazy Days

I give away my best  every day
For people who wish I’d just stay home
And I don’t think that I disagree
It’s not working out for them and it’s not working for me

Would you meet me in Montana
The cost of livings lower there
We could settle down and start over
Living here is costing me
The best times of my life

I’m not above giving up
There’s skill in knowing when enough is enough 
How you spend your day is how you spend your life
I’m tired of wishing away days for a weekend

Would you Meet me in Montana 
We could settle down out there
Picking up odd jobs and living small
Cuz living here is costing me
The best times of my life
I’m trading the best time of my life for a little money

I wanna know how to live
I wanna feel excited
And I don’t want to miss
A chance to ignite it

Would you meet me in Montana 
I know you had a lover there years ago
We could settle down and start over
Living here is costing me
The best times of my life
