lots of classic sounds. warmly employed, and yes, with a weekend feel. i like where it ended up.

feels so good, i love that roadmoviesensation it wakens

Great ! But a bit short, the rest should be as good !

This song is about one of the best days of my life. It was in 2021 and I spent the day at Port Crescent State Park in Michigan. It was a perfect temperature, crystal clear blue sky day. In the image, that is a picture taken of me with my hand under the sun like I am holding it. 

If I was going to guess my influences on this I would say some of the keyboard stuff comes from listening to a little Miles Davis over the years and the little bass guitar solo spots definitely mimic the great Steve Harris of Iron Maiden whom I wanted to emulate when I taught myself how to play many moons ago. Specifically, the bass solo in Rime of the Ancient Mariner I can hear echoing out of those. Hope you enjoy!

God I hope you hear me – hope I don’t go unnoticed – I plan to be defiant – because you need to hear this – you yourself have vanished – and we’re all stumbling through our lives – when left to our devices – we’ve proven to fail every time
I always thought you were a holy roller – till the day that I got to know ya – turn your back on me I understand – after all you’re the only one who knows who I really am – but turn your back on the best I got a problem I’m gonna say what I feel that’s how you made me aint gonna save me  if you don’t like too bad – sorry god you took all I had
You are my god-  but if this is what you choose – to let it come to an end – I have to let you know – I will begin again – cause I’ve been down before-  always swimming towards the shore – and I’ll be on dry land – when your wave comes crashing in
God I hope you hear me – hope I don’t go unnoticed – I plan to be defiant – because you need to hear this – you yourself have vanished – and we’re all stumbling through our lives – when left to our devices – we’ve proven to fail every time
I always knew you were defiant like me - always knew you we’re dying to hang with me – sorry dude I aint going nowhere – I got shit to do – I just can’t leave here – people round me they depend on me – like I depended on you – before you let me down – so don’t come around no more lest you accept me for who I am – I’m just like you GOD DAMN!
You are my god - but if this is what you choose – to let it come to an end – I have to let you know – I will begin again – cause I’ve been down before-  always swimming towards the shore – and I’ll be on dry land – when your wave comes crashing in
You are my god but if this is what you choose – guess what dude I got nothing lose – and even though you’ll turn a deaf ear – I know you’ll hear me – blink your eyes and make me disappear – send your wrath send that wave I hold my breath when it comes crashing in you’ve taken it all from me anyway but in the end you know what God? I’ll always begin again
You are my god-  but if this is what you choose – to let it come to an end – I have to let you know – I will begin again – cause I’ve been down before-  always swimming towards the shore – and I’ll be on dry land – when your wave comes crashing in
