Sole Survivor (Original Song)

in #music7 years ago (edited)

Here's a song I wrote quite a while ago when I was beginning to realise that life and the world was nothing like I'd perceived it to be.

Sole Survivor
You help me pass the time and claim to know me like you know yourself
What did you find between the sky and deep inside?
You haven't got an answer have you?

Once there was a fire
The embers glow and they are warm inside, but cold around
And nothing's found on wasted ground
You still don't know the answer

Is it scary now you've opened up your eyes to see the ground begin to open beneath you?
It's only crazy and there's nothing we can do to return to the dreams that we believed in

So make a friend, the sun
The sole survivor of a battle won
And don't look down
There is no ground and no more cloud
Nothing to be scared of for you now

great song man reminds me of Elliot songs . great lyrics and the way you sing is full of senses and that acoustic arpeggio and violin made me feel like I am somewhere out there in the woods.

Thanks very much David, do you mean Elliott Smith? That's a great compliment if so, I really like his stuff.

Yes bro , I meant Elliot Smith , which software did you used for record ? , maybe we can work together sometimes.

Nice offer, but it was quite a few years ago, and I don't really get time to properly record these days I'm afraid. I think I used Cakewalk when I did it though, is that even still used these days?

that's great to know about it , yes If I work on a song it takes a hard time so I dont do it anytime , I just asked if you like , and I know you have a full time like all of us , and yeah there is cakewalk and many other software and I think all of them are great when we know how to use them. thanks for checking my blog , nice to see you.

FYI guys, Cakewalk morphed into "Sonar Pro" i(at least n title anyway) over time and I still use it

Ah yes, that's right. I think I might have known that.

Thank you for your beautiful song !

Thank you for listening!

This has always been one of my favourites of your songs son. In fact we still play the "Sole Survivor" album amongst other more mainstream stuff!

So fucking nice! Really beautiful song, and can't fault your vocals here.
