Original song. Wanted to write something new to put on YouTube. I wouldn't say this is my usual song, but sometimes it's good to be unusual! :)
Like all stuff I write, it's autobiographical.

Constructive criticism welcomed.

P.S. Apologies for foot taps - I'm working towards becoming a one man band ;)

Sinking Down

Sit up straight, you're not listening to my words,
It's just gone eight, it's not time or hadn't you heard,
We're sinking down, there's no way out,
Or hadn't you heard?

If you were me, then what would you do right now,
It's clear to see, least to me you've heard the sound,
We're sinking down, there's no way out,
Or hadn't you heard?

Just open up your eyes a little longer than before,
If you could see the mess you'd left behind you and what's more,
The certainty of knowing nothing's going to be the same,
That's when I call your name...

It's getting late, time to leave this place for good,
Forget ourselves, but not her it's understood,
We're sinking down, there's no way out,
We're sinking down, there's no way out,
We're sinking down, there's no way out,
Or hadn't you heard?

Good Coldplay esque songs! =]]

[Surfwtw]

Great song. Do you like Pink Floyd?

[srfrr]

Show your face, Jim. Are you hideous or something? You are pretty good though. I would rock it.

[Bass734]

This is untouchable. After listening, I hardly had the strength in my soul to type. I felt every note and lyric surpass my miserable existence.This is a masterpiece.

[Oswlek]

Nice job. The music and melody duing the refrain are beautiful and I love the litte interlude at ~1:20. The fade out is a nice touch as well.

[poca622]

honestly i heard your later stuff when you were a one-man band first, and i have to say this is just as good :o) you've really come along way

[artisticallyfree]

Wow, how long have you been playing guitar? You're amazing. Who are some of your inspirations?
