Waiting for the Moon

Waiting for the moon.
Waiting for the moon.

Onward,
dusk fall.

Nothing to possess.
No human girl to caress.

Only forest,
making shadows appear.

Here you are,
watching over…
watching over.

Slaughtering squirrels and
consuming them alive.

You’re not a wolf, but
we accept you as one.
You’ve never howled, but
we shall teach you this night.

Waiting for the moon.
Waiting for the moon.

Red eye run tonight.
Red eye run tonight.

Forward,
dark lasts.

Watching falcon wings.
No siren song to sing.

Lonely stars glow,
making wishes quite near.

There you are,
tossing over…
turning over.

Murdering poachers and
regretting their births.

You’re one of us and
we shall follow you to the end.

Red eye run tonight.
Red eye run tonight.
Waiting for the moon.
Waiting for the moon.

A Cappella Originals

Waiting For The Moon (a cappella)

You know how certain pieces do not require vocals? I believe the same to an extent. I also believe that certain pieces do not require instrumentation. With that being said, most of my tracks are a cappella, for vocal performance is my main goal. I tinker with instruments here and there, so I apologize in advance if they sound a tad screwy. I realize I have a long way to go with my voice, but practice makes almost perfect! :-) Other than that, my bio in a nutshell is below.
