Your vocal sounds a bit like Bob Dylan whispering - and I mean that as a compliment!

cool. you manage to have it pumpin, but more subtle and gentle, and the soft vocals along with the guitar create a very airy and dreamy space. dig it!!

Cool track laid back vibe. Some cool transitions. Vocal style works well with the track  🙂

Good prod. really like the sounds.. this is good

Main parts --- nylon and steel string acoustic with some electric guitar overdubs later. A kind of study, with some almost experimental electric guitar ornaments. Recovered the acoustic guitar files, fixed them up, and glued it together! A bit of unevenness in the quality means best on earphones I think.

PANIC ATTACK

Written by Cass Dvorak and accompaniment by Rock Sinders
Art by Snowfall the Cat (see link on our main page)

Gettin' up in the morning to the same old songs
and the moon's still up cause we beat the sun
better turn it all on just to make it
through another long one.

But it's never as bad as it could've been
though it could be better than it always seems.
So we do it for each other
it makes it a little better.

And we once were blind but we now can see
the way the world works and how it ever came to be
beautiful and ugly
yet there's room for one another.

So turn the noise off step outside and look up high
at the stars we all see in the same old sky.
They can't be hiding the truth
and we share them with each other.

I know the world's not perfect and it never was
and the wheel keeps turning like it always does.
Turns forward just a little faster
than it turned out last year.

Now we make the best of every turn we've got
and we won't quit livin' till the big wheel stops.
Gotta keep it goin' baby
just live a little longer.

Just Step Outside

Ever thought if you could live without your skin?
And go to a place not far from here?
I can take you there, close your eyes

In the middle of the night you wake
Drop of blood running down your face
The mark on your wrist means you're chosen now

Take a step through the misty grey
Down the path where the spirit waits
Put your feet into the water now

Take me back down to the river
Take me back down where the spirit floats
Separate the ghost

Joined together in the atmosphere
The spirit hand takes away your fear
You let go, the dream takes over now

Take me back down to the river
Take me back down where the spirit floats
Separate the ghost

Spirit realm, is there room for me?
Spirit realm, will you take these chains?
Spirit realm, is there room for me?

Ever thought if you could live without your skin?
And go to a place not far from here?
I can take you there, close your eyes

JUST AN INSTINCT

Grew up in the same street
Bound to meet
Kicking cans together
Laughed forever
Went to the same school
Shared some thoughts about life
Growing up was fun and games
Or so we thought

We bought our cars
We went to bars
Laid on the beach 
Life unfurled
Sitting in the park
Watching cricket
'Till it was dark
Then barbecues 
And lemon fools

And when the going got tough, 
You hung on for your life, 
But was it just an instinct?
I don’t think you’d thought it through
I don’t think you wanted to…

And when the going got tough, 
You hung on for your life, 
But was it just an instinct? 
I don’t think you wanted to…
I don’t think you’d thought it through

Then we went to Uni
Kept in touch
Went to gigs
We told the wildest stories
Laughed the hardest laughs
Danced the hardest dances
Trekked the highest paths
Got totally lost
Totally lost

Then I got married
Had two children
Got divorced
Moved away from here
Everybody moves
I’m on my own
With my mobile phone
Looking for clues
Looking for you

And when the going got tough, 
I hung on for dear life, 
But was it just an instinct?
I don’t think I’d thought it through
I don’t think I wanted to…
I don’t think I’ll fall in love… 
Again...
Lah-di-dah-di-dah
Again!
Lah-di-dah-di-dah

Just An Instinct

This song is for anyone who has been in a relationship with a narcissistic or toxic person. As anyone who has been in a relationship with a narcissist knows, it is incredibly painful. Years can be wasted staying stuck in the relationship triangle of frustration, self-pity or believing you can fix them. When you finally realize that the only way to move forward is to completely cut them out of your life forever you are on the first steps to freedom. Expressing the anger you feel from all the abuse and time wasted is the first step to healing. Hope this song can help you to feel it’s okay to be angry. 

Share this song with someone who needs to hear this.
