Monster

Written by Derek Humphrey.

I have a website! You can visit it at http://www.derekhumphrey.com

You can download some tunes there. It'd be really nice of you to at least check it out!

I wake up; open my sleepy eyes
While tears glow like fireflies
Streaming down my cheeks
Weeping over something
That I can't explain
I know you're not to blame
I really think that no one is
But this just isn't me
It's not how I'm supposed to be
So I apologize

I've lost it; I've tossed away my mind
Over the smallest things I could find
To get upset about
And in a fit of rage
I reread every page
Of issues since long gone
But I won't let them die
Until I've seen you cry
Accuse you of every lie
That you have never made

I had broken, but now I'm healed again
In sight there is no end
To my transformations
Between personalities
My mind's gone and set them free
A modern Mr. Hyde
But you chose to stay on for the ride
You want to help me through
And not let this monster continue
I owe that to you

derek! your originals are so much better than your covers.

[Fnnrqwin]

Thanks. Hopefully I'll be able to record the second track before the end of next week.

good job man, did you edit all the film yourself and then match it with the track? I was thinking of doing something simular but wasn't sure how it would be done? any help would be appreciated. Great job tho man

Pretty much what I did was record each part of the song with it also being caught on video, and then matching up every single video separately to the combined audio to make sure the timing was correct, then I cut and pasted different sections of the video at the appropriate time, and finally I muted the audio and each video and just had the mp3 playing. That might sound harder (or easier) than it really was.

I've never heard a Monster sound so sweet. I like to play it when I feel like a monster myself. Love this song.... Somebody sign this fresh talent.

Oh, it says "Norse" thank god. That would have been hella lame yo.

[hans2point0]

Dirkmage, is that a "Norcal" shirt? My southern California genes must say, "YARR"

Hello again-

I remember seeing a cover you'd done of George Harrison's All Things Must Pass- I must say I like your originals better- you put all the instruments together nicely and it sounds very cohesive and relaxing =)

That being said I will never discourage george harrison in any way shape or form! rock on
