Time From a Bottle: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:20, 26 May 2013

verse

It's in the evening

and everything's all right

Pistol-packin' mama, don't you tell me dirty lies

for I'll be sleeping

underground tonight

and the starlight and the moon will shine without my oversight...

chorus

Wasting away, spilling time from a bottle

Keeping one hand up on the wheel and one hand on the throttle

Wasting the day, spilling time from a bottle

Watching all of our dreams like the stars going out one by one.

verse

I've got no time now

for things I can't abide

and trying to escape yourself requires a long long ride

so grab a barstool

to keep yourself afloat

If the weather in my head gets out, you'll need your overcoat

~2008-2009: words originally written (with music in my head), on some piece of paper somewhere, possibly in a notebook I currently can't find. I think there were more words than I was able to remember when I typed this in. When I find it, that will help pin down the date.
2013-02-09 recorded demo backing tracks and am waiting for the house to be quiet so I can do the vocals
2013-05-26 Some vocals recorded; not 100% happy with them, and I need to add more, but it may be enough for a demo mix soon.

-* '''when written''': roughly 2008-2009. I've temporarily lost where I originally wrote down the words. I think there were more of them (the first part of the second verse). When I find it, that will help pin down the date. As of 2013-02-09, I've recorded demo backing tracks and am waiting for the house to be quiet so I can do the vocals.
