1000 Years

Headin Out

wrote out a chord progression on a napkin (trying to throw in a bunch of 2-5 and 2-5-1 sub-progressions, gratuitously, 'cause I never tried that), and demo-ed something out real quick on Ableton just using keys.  Silly, yet the process was more fun than I thought it was going to be.  Might try a different instrumentation and/or arrangement in future.  (Quickly/crudely tried to approximate a wobbly-onset Lyle Mays style synth lead sound using Operator on this).

(Photo snapped by me; I never know what to use for photos in this context so I tend to use a pic from a local park and/or trail, something mundane but pleasant, e.g. "this was a little part of my day" kind of thing)

Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

The Feeling of Jazz

I'll Be Seeing You

Make You Feel My Love Ukulele Cover

We watched the shadows of the dawn
looks like it's dancing all night long
lets turn the lights on
we felt the touches of sunsets
awakes underneath our nest
we both home alone

is this silence an opportunity or just my hopes
or is it just my thoughts that isn't real?
should I stay still or I have to go out or walk away
or is this just being an endless feel?

on top of the half-risen sun
I'm resting my legs as I sit
Lets just stay quiet
like staying under warm blanket
and the sunlight covers us
it will melt

Just one night of sleep and it’ll all comes back
like it used to be
It’ll be the light that protected our young nights
Let’s go see it again

Yesterday, today, tomorrow
We will be like this from now on
on and on

LYRICS:

are you done
playing games with my heart
‘cause i’m all worn out
and out of tears for you

are you done, playing numb
for your fans
for the world
in case they judge you for your heart

can you see me
in the corner
can you hear me
when i call for you

can you feel me
when i talk to you
do you feel things too
i just gotta know

i don’t know what you want
but i know that i want you

boy use your words and spill the truth
lemme know if you want me too

do you want me too

is your mind as busy as mine
open your eyes and see that time flies
when we’re together
could it be forever

and i know i can get a little crazy
but your talkin’ is getting kind of lazy
oh i wish you would just use your mouth

i don’t know what you want
but i know that i want you

i don’t wanna be guessin’
and i shouldn’t be stressing over you
and now you’re just wasting
all my time

boy use your words and spill the truth
lemme know if you want me too

is your mind as busy as mine
open your eyes and see that time flies
when we’re together
could it be forever
