Hey, this is a song I started writing in February: had the 2 first verses in the bag and the chorus was originally instrumental. Eventually, I added a chorus and bridge thx to some advice from my cool teachers and this little song turned into something way bigger.

 It's titled Elliott Smith because it sounds like he could have written it if he was obsessed with Western movies lol

lyrics:

Verse 1:
Tears they dry
I walk on board my new house for a while
But the misty shore swallows up  my hope again
As I gather all the tools, all the pics I remember
So I drift off
Far from shore

Verse 2:

Months have past
I live in the slums with some help
From these new friends
Police hunt us down, like prey
As we gather our food, tools, and shelter
I still feel sometimes
Far from shore

Bridge:

Will I return home? Who knows
Will I turn back time? On my life, mine
Turned upside down and torn
Scattered pieces from one whole

Outro:

Far from shore
So long ago
Far from shore
The gun chokes

bass credit: Stella lemmens!

Elliott Smith ( Far from Shore)

I'm a Belgian songwriter that has had a slow-burning love for music ever since I was 11. Let's just say that I heard Bohemian Rhapsody being used in a vacation advertisement, and after some searching of my own (AKA asking my mother), I found the song. The rest they say, is history.
