Nick Solish - The Weasel (original song)

An original song. I decided to post the lyrics since people have been asking me what the heck I've been saying. Apparently its not as clear for other people as it is for me. Please tell me what you think and subscribe if you like the vids! Thanks!

Lyrics:

The weasel has left its cage
she enters from the side of the stage
Bows and starts her routine
Na-ïve, thoughtless and free

A shared cigarette by the lake
The half hearted promises we make
I'll call you I'm sure one day
These memories are passing away

Several times I've said this line but this time it's the truth
Time runs away and things I should say are worthless since I've lost you (met you)

Instrumental verse, 2 measures then;
I've finally gotten over this,
your performance was certainly missed
But now I'm back on my feet,
Colder to you when we meet

She could go back and tell me what she wants
She could go back and tell me what she wants

Nice, a fellow Blueridge owner! I haven't listened to your other originals yet, but I enjoyed this one. The lyrics feel very genuine. I mean, lost love is a common enough topic...but there's some freshness to the way you're approaching it without stripping out organic disorganization those feelings bring out.

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed the song. I love my Blueridge. I really think it has an incredible sound and I've written a lot of my best songs on it. Do you write music yourself?

[EnglishMajorsGetLit]

Heh, I'm trying to write music. I wrote a lot a few years ago, but I've had a dry spell for a while trying to get my style figured out. Now I'm just trying to finalize all the bits and pieces I've put together in the past year and rebuild the mini-studio now that the (ex)gf has moved out.

My guitar is a BR-63, btw. The day I bought it, I went to my local store and did a pepsi-challenge type thing with a lot of more expensive guitars. The BR-63 came out on top, naturally :D

awsome

dude that would be cool i would by it.....

I think that looking back at this now I really do appreciate the G resolve. I think it works well to end the song, though I suppose the C would work well too. Glad you liked the song. Check out my other ones if you get the chance.

[ByronMortimer]

I like the G resolve; it matches the lyrics (resolution: moved on). Makes sense that I'd like the unthought-out ending considering I usually plan nothing, and make up everything.

Otherwise I agree w/Oswlek. Keep playing, I'll keep listening.

The lyrics are in the info section at the top of the page.

[antifolkhero]
