Eh. I wouldn't add anything extra. I really like the acoustic.

most of the songs i've written i can hear more than just acoustic. some don't work out as well as i planned, babel might be one of them. what i'm going to add will be very subtle

You can have two versions.

One for me.

And the electronic one. xD

hah, i'll message you when it is. for now i'll put up the second song/lyrics i ever wrote. it's about not really being confident in my songwriting ability and issues of conforming. apparently i'm an issues man

tall tree

the taller i grow, the more i sway
harsh winds blow from all sides
each tree's growing its roots deeper each day
and we sometimes let that growth fall to waste

so my eyes are unhatched eggs
which make my mind beg
to use my words but
my ears fear what they'll hear
yet i ignore it, and smell the roses

the water in my hands is running through my fingers
the soil at my feet stays parched
it's easy to see we can't stay this way
lest all the roots and leaves wither in our path.

and my eyes are unhatched eggs
which make my mind beg
to use my words but
my ears fear what they'll hear
yet i ignore it, and smell the roses

pretty simple, but i enjoy playing it, so i usually start my sets with it.

i will have recordings of some of my songs up soon. here is my latest foray, entitled 'happy days'

doesn't matter where i go
there's no one i know
it's all senseless words
in measured indulgences

sadness dapples the streets
in the glances that fail to meet my eyes
and it all conflates to
an overwhelming trinket

it's raining again

raining... inside my head

i've been digging a long time
i know you must get low for the gold
under all that dirt makes me feel to let go

it's raining again

raining... inside my head

[bridge]
rainin' repeatx8
and i'm runnin'
runninx8

runnin' away, again

when my skin is splotched and my hairs are grey
and all the dross of life has floated away
i'll look back upon this place
thinking "those were the happy days"

thinking... these are the happy days.

once i get the mix/master of the song i'll upload it... i recorded it (with a vintage tape machine!) today.
