For some reason, I am feeling much better about my own circumstances…. A haunting melody with real emotions, life is not always a joyful dance!  I like your vocals, how they match the theme.

A very sad song David, hope all is well with you….

Good to hear from you David  -- a bit dark - hope all is well with you my friend  !!

Dude, dark. That being said, certainly not something I haven't felt in my time!

Really like the open and frank expressiveness of this David. Reminded me of a similar situation where 2 friends wanted me to jam, I was so down, sat in a corner and played so softly, they didn't know what to make of it. I did though.

Hmmm.  Well, I read the comments and your responses, David. This is what I think. This is brilliant. Anyone with a soul can connect to this. If this reflects where you're at, then shout it out - sod the number of plays and likes - heart is what matters - Waits, Cave, ....Hutton.... Lyrics? - sublime. Delivery?  Of the essence.   It's not often I have a hand burst into my chest and rip my heart out.  Yours did.

I AM LOST

I am lost, 
staring into a void,
Fingers twitching, 
voices ranting, endlessly annoyed.

I am lost,
Can't seem to get a single thing done.
Mind is empty—
Nothing, no one.

Will I be found, alive or drowned?
Secrets scattered all over the floor,
An empty room
 behind an open door.

I am lost,
Lost yet in plain sight.
Heart still beating,
Moving slowly—takes all my might.

Older, fatter, dim-witted, and a bore,
I am lost,
Can't go on anymore.
