Doubt’s Shadow

V1
I lie and watch the fan slowly turning
Like a clock it’s shadows dance on the ceiling
Does each turn count the days since you left?
Or with each one am I closer to my healing?

CHORUS

Without you I struggle to find my next step
Without you the days seem to grow longer 
I do not want to leave doubt’s shadow 
It’s a safe harbor where my hope  can linger

V2

In my shadow the memories drift slowly by
Everywhere I turn there are too many voices
All my family and friends are trying to offer help 
When I listen they shout out too many choices 

REPEAT CHORUS

tag:  It’s my safe harbor here in doubt’s shadow

Just another nobody who's not here to be somebody.  I write songs because I can't help it, and it helps me.  If I add them here, I'm less likely to keep mixing them.  Creativity is a stream with many tributaries, and sometimes one runs through us.  The stream is more creative when tributaries meet, and I'm grateful for the collaborative efforts of others.

I am a songwriter from Finland, composing original, mostly harmless, pop songs. I'm interested in any kind of collaboration, composing, lyric writing, arrangement etc. Don't hesitate to contact me if you are interested.

I have only recently started to sing myself, so please accept deficiencies in my voice, even after lots of editing with Melodyne. I have also used hired vocalists and collaborators for vocals. There are also songs for which I have used Vocaloids, I may sing some of those at some point.

I normally use Band-In-A-Box for the arrangement. It is a great program for practicing, storing and developing ideas in many different genres. I really recommend it for you, see www.pgmusic.com

Popfinger points to the fact that I like pop music and pop songs in various styles. I've used also other pseudonyms like Syvis Entertainment, Suvis Wonderland, Dr. Elvi's Cosmic Sextet, Smutty Waters, The Artist Never Known As Prince, Gates of Asylum, Pop No Harm and Poop Dilan.

I compose songs, write lyrics and sing most of them. I don't have  'one'  style. It depends on my mood or on certain issues that are going on in our world. AND some listeners can even tell which songs are genuine 'Birchwood-songs' (!)
