diversion from original plans

My PC is rubbish for music. I haven't done a single thing since getting it that I'm happy with.

I have finally deduced that the problem is one of software: PCs don't have Logic!

So I've bought a mac. It's awesome. Haven't stopped writing since I got it. Mostly just four bar loops and little bits of shit, but prolific! For the first time in months.

Anyway, had a bit of a breakthrough yesterday. Worked through the day on a new idea. (Almost) finished it off tonight.

It's the first thing I've done since the old Mac died that I've been happy with.

Here it is...

Lyrics below if you feel brave and want to try to sing along to my melodies. They make sense to me! But probably me alone.

hind legs and steely stare
i will protect you
drawing breath in the haze
it's madness to do it this way
comfort was something to gladden us
but it's clear it's gone forever
hark back to the opening Act
fuzzy in both of our minds

angels never struck me as being sad
so why do you cry?
the hardest part is over
when you were a million miles away

upon the heartening glow of love
i rest my decisions
it opens up a world for us
flight and fancy in the little spaces within us
