This is a new one that came about really quickly. Drop D tuning got me the main part. The simple lyrics came to me the next day while making breakfast. Sort of a heavy metal country and western mash up!

Something's Coming My Way

Wake up in the morning
Waiting for the dawning
Hoping something’s coming my way

I’m forever falling
I can’t hear you calling
Hoping something’s coming my way

Nothing’s going my way

Wake up on a new day
Still got nothing to say
Hoping something’s coming my way

Wake up from a slumber
I ain’t got your number
Hoping something’s coming my way

Nothing’s going my way

Wait in in the evening
I still don’t believe it
Hoping something’s coming my way

Waking from a nightmare
Faking that you might care
Hoping something’s coming my way

Something’s coming my way

I liked it! I like the breaks where everything drops out except the drums for a beat.

If anything I’d reserve the vocal double for just the chorus or other select parts of the song. Maybe just dial it back for the main verses.

Nice job!
 
Yep good song. I would look to low cut, carve a little of the midrange energy from the guitars and fatten the drums with parallel compression
