"The Line"

(v1)
Why you go and make pretend
That you were my friend
When all this time 
You  were keepin' score

How's it feel to live a lie
And tell me that I'm wrong
How you gonna testify
If you never sang the song

(p/c)
Don't know what's been goin' on
Inside your head
All the time you spend alone
Has left you with a deficit

(Ch)
It's hard to know the line
But you crossed it the last time
I ain't got no more time
For you

(v2)
Life has its ups & downs
One day it can turn around
I ain't never said 
I'm better than you

You've got me at the precipice
It's a stupid way to get your kicks
I think I've done
All I can do

(p/c)
Don't know what's been going on
Inside your head
I think it's time for me to fly
Don't need your recompense 

(ch)

The Line

In many ways, Elizabeth is the most heroic character in Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein". Her love of Frankenstein holds steady despite his obsessive and erratic behaviour. The book says much about the dangerous follies of obsessive men and the tragic consequences for the people close to them. 
The guitar is a Takamine New Yorker... what a fine electrical pick-up it has, but it does pick up the slighted movement! I used a variety of delays (low res, particle verb) and a phaser to create a "ghost" to the guitar.
The picture is taken from a portrait of Mary Shelley.

Do You Love Me
I wrote this song back in early December.  I have sat on it since then trying to decide if I liked it enough to publish it.  I am still not sure if it deserves the light of day.  I like the chorus.  But the verse doesn't have the quality feel I desire.  Let me know.  Should I have tossed this song?

Lyrics:  Do You Love Me

Intro:
Do You Love Me

Verse 1:
You loved me once
I was not a dunce
And I still love you
And I am not blue

Sometimes I have my doubts
Days with ins and out
But maybe it’s all me
Trying not to flee

Chorus:
I am a small man
And I have my clan

Verse 2:
I am not a leader
But I am a good breeder
Just a regular guy
Who will look you in the eye

Living a normal life
With you I hope my wife
Full of insecurity
Nothing is a surety

Verse 3:
I have some confidence 
I can hold a conference
All mixed together
Sometimes light like a feather

Not sure where I stand
But when called, I can command
I can lead those in need
and help those who need freed

Outro:
Do You Love Me

I have always loved music. I learnt piano as a child and have dabbled with guitar without ever learning it ... until now! I have been in choirs most of my life but have not really delved into making music until the last few years. After initially playing around with Garage Band, I moved on to Logic Pro and that's how nearly all of my music has been produced.

I use digital software, guitar and keyboards to produce my original music. I compose and edit using Logic Pro. Other people's vocals or collaborative vocals for any track really are very welcome! 

I love the interaction on Soundcloud and the comments from other musicians and composers are so helpful and supportive. Keep making music everyone!
