Reason to Smile (Original, Piano+vocals) - Nikki Lee

i wrote this recently after coming out of a pretty low period....but it's all good now ;)

this song's for all of you....cause as lame as it sounds, you guys really do give me a reason to smile - reading your comments, messages, watching your response videos, etc. - it's all made such a difference to my life, so...thank you :)

this'll be the last time you guys see me in this room!! moving out on thurs, so excited! :D (don't worry y'all, i'm bringing patrick with me heehee)

it's so easy to be sure of yourself that i guess
i never realized
how little i really knew
and now its hit me like a sudden rainstorm
cause i'm left out alone in the cold night
so cold at night

and you know
i'm so afraid
that this change is slowly blowing me away
and i can't even recognize
the person staring back at me in the mirror

but i know that this life has got to
hold something more than
false hopes, and true lies, cause maybe
we'll find something more than
beautiful
it won't be impossible
to finally find
a reason to smile

it's like everyone is trying to help
but they can't
its something i gotta do
cause this battle i fight alone
and in this moment now the dust is settling
all of these walls are holding sleepless nights
just sleepless nights

and you know
i'm so afraid
that this change is slowly blowing me away
and i can't even recognize
the person staring back at me in the mirror

but i know that this life has got to
hold something more than
false hopes, and true lies, cause maybe
we'll find something more than
beautiful
it won't be impossible
to finally find
a reason to smile

even through the rain
cause nobody wants to be the one to change
when you've tried to let it blow over
some people only get colder
and now its only wrong to make things right
make things right

What mic is that? It looks really cool. I think your gain is too high though, there is a lot of clipping on the loud parts. db boost (after amp) and compressor will fix it. Can you upload love the way you lie to youtube? mediafire isn't really convenient.
