I once knew 
A man who
Looked into 
His own tomb
At night I weep 
For those who sleep
Inside 
Such worried eyes

Go ahead and try
To fight away from the nights light
You may find places to search
But with so many thoughts please stay with me on earth

Worried Eyes

Why'd it have to be said
Even in my head these words I reject
These words I reject
Those words I reflect upon
Come Dawn
You can find me here
I wish you were near
The grass goes on to grow below
The bird sings and the wind still blows

Although I may still think
Without you I'll continue to sink
The world won't shrink
and within a blink
we'll be on the road
for the people to behold
but for now
the world feels just as empty as I feel inside

The hardest part isn't physical, no
The hardest part is spiritual, I know
That within there's a friend
To the end I would bend
Because I know 
It's mutual

Although I may still think
Without you I'll continue to sink
The world won't shrink
and within a blink
we'll be on the road
for the people to behold
but for now
the world feels so much colder than I feel inside

This World Feels Empty

Written for my Intro to Composition class as a final project about a song/poem I wrote a year ago.

Within My Psyche

Everything recorded is acoustic and there's really minimal processing on vocals/instruments. Didn't really want to do a ton of EQ or post work on this track, so I'm releasing it in a somewhat rough state.

Instruments (in case you're curious):
12 String guitar
Mandolin
Flute

Stranger(Rough)

This was performed on a Spirio Steinway Grand Piano. The performance did deviated a little away from the composition in some portions.

If any performer wants to play this piece I am more than happy to supply a pdf of the score, visit my website at www.marcelnegrete.com/contact for any inquiries.
