Red Sky (original acoustic)

in #dsound7 years ago (edited)


Here's a song I wrote about a lot of different things. It's very difficult to explain so I'll not get into it just right now tonight. That's me playing keyboard as well.. I dont usually do keyboards in my songs because it's a lot of effort and I'm not so good at recording multiple tracks at once. Rare serena song that has multi tracks. There are only a few of those. Laziness is a thing.

Anyway. I hope somebody likes this song because it's taken me nearly an hour to get it uploaded and type out the lyrics (I had to listen to it and write them down because somehow I don't have a copy of them anywhere on this computer.)

Red Sky

This fog is thick
but I can see.
My eyes are closing
but my mind won't freeze

You threw me down
I stared at you
And I did not flee
as you smiled at me

Look at that sky
It warned me so well
Like deep scarlet sheets
on the bed of all hell

Well I'll tell you, my dear
I can stay till the end
but I can't stand to smile
and I won't call you friend

No, I won't call you friend

This fog is thick
but I can see
My eyes are closing
but my mind won't freeze

Well, look at that sky.
It warned me so well
like deep scarlet sheets
on the bed of all hell

WOW!
I don't really know what else to say...That was hauntingly awesome...

Thanks, Amber! ♥ Hugs!

I love your voice!!! And the song is SO good. I love it ♥

Thank you so much! You know I love your voice too, @ellipses! Let me know when you post a new song!!!

I love it... as always! It's so deep and emotional. Sounds like some rough times and someone as sweet as you shouldn't be hurting like that... But at least you have beautiful things coming from such dark times. Much love to you! Thank you for sharing your beautiful music with us. I look forward to your songs so much.

Thanks, Jen! Aww, we all get the rough times sometimes. Just means it's easier to write on those days. I know you understand that as a musician.. we almost welcome the pain sometimes, don't we. Much love to you!

Haha! That's right. That's where the deepest stuff comes from! ;) We are masochists of sorts. But it's nice to know that some light can come from the darkness if you open your mind and let it flow. Embrace the pain and darkness to make a light for others to see.
