Vincent (Writer,composer,guitars,bass,lyrics,vocal melody,Backup vocals,drums,Mix)
Tricia    (Vocals,Lyrics,Vocal Melody)

Edited:

I decided just to leave the song as is even though the drums are EZ drumer and the bass isnt real bass...I played bass on guitar.

I need to finish up some songs so i guess this will have to do for now.

EDITED...second time I removed this mix

Going to work on it some more.

Future Junkie
Tricia41/ Vincent (c)2010



Teenage girl in the bathroon stall
In the beginning of her spiral fall
Dont know where and dont know when
a future junkie with the help of her friends

No one saw it coming for this little one
got a little crazy, having too much fun
her mama and daddy's pride and joy
is running around with all the bad boys

its a teenage heartache
Now the avalanche has started
see her daddy's heart break
as his little girl is falling

God only knows
what to do
her life is through
she was on top
but now she'll lose
what to do

you know she doesn't look quite the same
the so-called friends are partly to blame
she only cares how she feels
to a future junkie, friends seem so real

she's on the edge of running away
once she's hooked, what can you say
you wanna turn back the clock
she's slipping, and she won't stop

a teenage heartache
the avalanche has started
feel her mama's heartbreak
watching the girl falling

Only God knows
 ......why...
is her future a lie?
could've had it all
poor doll
but now she falls

and the bass isnt real bass...I played bass on guitar.

You must have had a hard time putting bass strings on your guitar!!  ;D  It works. The drums are ok. Too bad you didn't get one of the guys on. The drummers haven't been so present lately.  :( The song sounds good. Seems to be lacking something. A bit thin. I think you need some keys to really fill it out. Good tune though.

I will probably redo this in the future when I get the proper recording amp.

Problem with this song was I recorded it on a fender champ 500 5 watt amp however the amp isnt really made for distortion and sounds a bit thin...plus the mixing isnt great on this because the guitar tracks were hard to mix.

I can alway redo song again when I find the right sound.

This is another song that didnt really turn out how I wanted it to however I just finished it to get it out of the way so i can work on better songs.

Hey I would try a bass track for this.

Did you use pitch shift for the bass?

I used a preset in amplitube 2 to change guitar into bass.

Im working on a new version of this kenny...I will PM you when I post it in collab section.
