about

At long last, here's my first fully self-produced and released single, Creatures Inside. The song came so fast at first, from a chord loop I heard in a dream (that's the verse progression) to lyrics from dreams, it was all basically roughed out within a week or two.

Then... I produced and produced and ended up adding and removing so many things that I threw at this, until I arrived at what I felt was an interesting combination of orchestral instruments, samples, and of course, guitar and vocals that propelled the song forward.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Falling up into dark shining bright, over and under, left becomes right
Reeling and steadfast at the same time,
feeling the dust and stars combine
Spiraling into geometric signs, my body blurs as the symbols align
Passing through walls, suspended in the sky,
my mind at ease with the creatures inside

Waking up, landing in bed, only to find I'm still in my head
Making sense of memories, leaves me chasing memories

Whispering words that deafen my eyes,
the keeper gives but my hands are tied
I dissolve and multiply into question marks with the answers inside

Waking up, landing in bed, only to find I'm still in my head
Making sense of memories, leaves me chasing memories

Whispering words that deafen my eyes,
over and under, left becomes right
The keeper gives but my hands are tied,
reeling and steadfast at the same time
Falling up into dark shining bright, my body blurs as the symbols align
Spiraling into geometric signs, feeling the dust and stars combine
My mind at ease with the creatures inside
