Here’s another new demo of a partially finished song, called “Turn This Around.” I need a third verse, and some other stuff. Parts are a bit rough but I think it’s getting there. I really need a few afternoons to myself to finish all the music I’ve got in my head and partly in the computer. Lyrics:
If I could curse the ground
Of this God-forsaken town
The bottoms of my shoes in the dust
When the wheels are rolling round
You can almost hear the sound
Of oxygen and metal making rust[bridge]These walls have heard it coming,
Heard the rumors, seen the wars
And they bend against the howling of the wind[Verse 2]If the weather weren’t so cold
Maybe I wouldn’t feel so old
Cracking like the ice under my feet
And if I can’t bear the load
Of the weight of my own soul
Would that be called a win or a defeat[Bridge]
[Chorus]Turn this around
Turn this around
Turn this around
It’s going down, going down, going down.
One reply on “New Song Demo — "Turn This Around"”
Dave,
I haven’t heard the music yet, but the lyrics sound kind of “Springsteen-esque”!
