Oof, I'm not sure if I was ready for this one - beautiful and heavy.

Through the lyrics, it is easy to feel the pain Mama is going through and hope everything will be ok.

This is a beautiful song, driven by your emotive lyrics. I like the unusual sng structure. The piano has bags of character. Keep it in the final mix.

I'm very interested in where the lyrics were written, if the music was written simultaneously or not, when the title came to you, things like these. I love the sound, but especially the old out of tune piano just outside of Memphis.

Lyrics:
i used to be a whore
for the sound
it would spin me round
and round
the bass is what i'd die for
and then the beat
i listen so much,
can't eat or sleep
now i am a queen
for the stereo machine
and the speaker
speaks to me
much deeper

all i do is hear and feel anymore
i'm way down to the core
to miss it makes me sore
im down to the core

and the speaker
speaks to me
much deeper
and the speaker
speaks to me
much deeper..
i'm down to the core...

There Are Two Sides To Every Story

- At the final, at the final hour
- In the desert blooms a desert flower

We drive the cattle riding purple sage
Look for water, lost in wonder as the light fades
We sit our horses under purple skies
Wind dies down, we turn around and watch the moon rise

We reach the Rio flowing slow and red
Stand the middle in the swirl bowing our heads
We can't wade the same river again
So they say, but you know it's just we who have changed

mama calls out for her child
in the night
her baby’s gone to sleep
well before her time

and every morning 
when the sun does rise
she can only see yesterday
in her eyes
in her eyes
in her eyes

pacing back and forth on the floor 
now worn well down
feels like she’s cried to 
everyone in town

mama don’t know what to do
in this town
feels like she needs to get
moving on somehow now
moving on somehow
somehow

mama
mama
mama
