After uploading private, I decided to go public with this - maybe others will relate. Like Clapton who said of Tears in Heaven: I almost subconsciously used music for myself as a healing agent... while I'm no great performer, this song speaks my mind. Words below:

Looking in the glass, she sees what is not there
Even though she thinks she is, she's not aware
That the voices in her head, they tell her lies
The voices in her head, they blind her eyes

Her body now so thin, so weak, so frail
Each time that we've seen her, she looks more pale
And we plead with her be brave, accept some help
But the voices in her head, she hates herself

I sometimes wonder Lord why it is so
So much mental sickness down here below

For, looking in the glass, she sees what is not there
Even though she thinks she is, she's not aware
That the voices in her head, they tell her lies
The voices in her head, they blind her eyes - ahhh

Volt5000 (@volt5000 and @mgxloop) and I are happy to present here on SC the 1st track, "Day by Day 10", of our new collaborative album "Day by Day" we shall be working on in the next month or two. Our idea is this time to go more into higher tempo, modern synth sounds and rich rhythms, in a genre or style we could preliminarily outline as symphonic electro house or melodic progressive techno. What is typical of our collaborations so far, and will perhaps remain so, is that we insert between the high tempo parts of a composition a lyrical detour of an ambient or slow nature. Volt5000 suggested that we aim at 10 tracks, present them with the same simple artwork cover, but in differing colours, and call them all "Day by Day", with a number decreasing from 10 to 1 (or 0? - we shall see) in reverse order, and I immediately liked this. 

The track was created in collaboration on 27 and 28 December 2021 (initial mix and recording in GarageBand and Logic Pro X by Alex M) and 5 May 2022 (subsequent additions and final mix and recording in MAGIX by Volt5000), and posted here on SoundCloud on 8 May 2022 (by Alex M).

The artwork cover for the track (and all that will follow) uses a conceptual idea of Volt5000 of 6 May 2022, implemented by Alex M (in PowerPoint) on 7 May 2022, then cropped and annotated with text by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 7 May 2022 - in coordination and agreement with Volt5000.

Thank you, Volt5000, for our inspired and spontaneous collaborations - more than two years now!

Duration: 5:48 minutes

This is an extremely slowed version of the song. And yes the cover is relevant. Try to figure it out. You won't.
