This is Hard Rain
Began March 30
8 re-writes (and a big pile of buffalo muffins in the corner)
Time: Came in at 4:10 (tried to keep it under 4)
The song was written by myself (took some heat for my approach but here it is.)
Vocals by: Ali Kat, Allison did a great job on the vocals, tweaked the lyrics a bit for me, good pipes, could easily be great pipes.
This is a blues round, the lyrics tell the story, this person has the blues.
It's been an interesting experience for me and a lot of fun. M.C. is the world.
Feedback would be much appreciated on this piece, good, bad or indifferent.
*Lyrics*
Hard Rain (Gabriel Rowe & Ali Kat)
There's an evil in the wind,
Tears fallin' from the sky,
The world is spinning faster,
Getting' harder just to hang on,
The day is cold and faded,
Hollowness as time stands still,
I can't remember yesterday,
And tomorrow never comes,
(bridge)
I can't see this world
My eyes have been shaded,
To this place, no escape
From the demons in my space,
It's a hard, hard rain,
I'm just an empty shadow,
A lost image of myself,
A river that's run dry,
An empty shell and nothing else,
The world is spinning faster,
Getting' harder, harder, harder just to hold on,
I can't remember yesterday,
My tomorrows never come,
It's a hard rain,
It's a hard rain.
