My Empire (MP3)
« on: September 10, 2005, 11:57:25 am »
This is a song I call 'My Empire'.
The lyrical melody is totally unplanned, this is very obvious by the end of the song. There are also many obvious mistakes at the end of the song as I haven't really polished anything off yet and was basically just winging it near the end.
And please forgive my totally untrained voice (still seeking lessons).

Empire

Sitting alone in my empire
Drenched in the solitude of calm
Like a gentle wind swaying grass
Back and forth with a beat to last

Clear blue skies and golden sun
Only break for the horizon
But the endlessness they present
Enough for this place to ascent

Staged piano out on the grass
Opens for a gently tapped note
Light enough to be carried far
But deep enough to last and last

I will stay in here forever
In this perfect world of mine
The place that lifts me higher
This is my empire

Darkenning skies, vanishing sun
Open your eyes cause twilight comes
Let the colour surround you tight
In its embrace of liquid light

The colours of fire
Are taking me higher
In all its entire
This is my empire

This is my empire

I think it is very good. Sort of reminds me of Bens Fold Five.
Thanks,
Nate

My heart, your hands, gentle my friend
Break me neatly, numb me sweetly
