"Flower in the Dark" (original composition)

My first album is available for order http://zachheyde.bandcamp.com/album/flower-in-the-dark Thank you for taking time to listen...and I hope you enjoy the music.


ONE OF MANY SONGS IN AN UPCOMING ALBUM, STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES :)

So surprising as it may be, here's one of many new original songs of mine to come! It's my personal explorations into non-classical music, showing my other influences like Radiohead, Barenaked Ladies, Nick Drake, Coldplay, and others... that is me singing the vocals and I am accompanied by my girlfriend :) Hope you enjoy!

"FLOWER IN THE DARK

The less you speak,
The more you have to say
I am here,
But you're so far away.

It's not your fault,
A flower in the dark
Never blooms,
Never shows its heart.

I'd turn back time,
Erase and redesign
Watch you smile
For every time you cried.

And I'd climb the sky
To free us from its walls,
Where beauty flows
Like crystal waterfalls.

Your my flower in the dark,
But one day you'll show your soul and your heart."

Hey, thanks so much for the input!! It actually is an electric guitar but with little effects... maybe I'll do some experimenting! Great advice, thanks again!
