All Solo
Learning. Everything
I started this album able to play guitar, and semi able to sing. I've learned to play the bass, drums, keyboard, and how to use PreSonus Studio One. Its been a long journey to say the least! Between youtube tutorials, professional lessons, and help from friends, this album has been coming allow slowly but surely. Live music seems to be making a return soon, and I feel better equipped from this experience. Is this a short post? Sure is. Is the music better than ever? I hope so!
Save ME
Save me has had its journey.
Originally it was a song about a relationship where one person loved the other significantly more, and the burdens of an unbalanced relationship. The song evolved to be a song about material possessions and the obsession with them. Now, the song safely sits as a hybrid of the two. A relationship burdened by the obsession of material possessions and unwavering ideologies. Never allowing something to not be perfect, always looking for better and more creates an omnipotent burden. The song makes this mentality a sickness, one that you need to be saved from. Many rewritten lines help to explain these feelings. Knowing it is occurring but feeling helpless to it, questioning if you where the problem, not knowing who you are, all of these thoughts and feelings manifesting through poorly executed actions. This song is a figurative (and literal in lyrics) cry for help, and serves as its own self therapy.
Lyrics
Verse
I’m a rock, o baby I’m a stone
I’m your shadow, you’re the warmth in my soul
You lift me up and you lift me up higher
We all drown in a rising tide
I'm drowning
Chorus
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
Verse
I’m a stone o baby I’m a rock
You’re the warmth at night when it gets real dark
You make me high, and you get me higher
We all drown in a rising tide
I'm drowning
Chorus
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
Bridge
Sometimes, when I’m down I reflect
Thinking back to all those problems that I left
Lost myself in the present and the past
I am just a man with only one request
Chorus
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
Save me, I cant control myself
Save me, victim of greed
