Work In Progress

[nsterken]

This is a song I am tracking right now, these are the most basic parts.

The acoustic is a mono track that will be doubled and there is a whole lot of other instruments in the first, slower half as well such as violins, contrabass and what not.

The latter half feautres a scratch guitar track for recording ease. The vocals are also a scratch track for convenience.

Hopefully will finish this soon. If there is a WIP section, feel free to move it there. I could not find it.

Wanted to EDIT my original post and add the lyrics:

By Candlelight -Nate Sterken

A summer breeze is blowing
And the clock has faded slowly
Into another evening
The sunlight that's pouring through the window is empty
As it dances on your skin
The cigarette that burned out long ago
Is like a flower
It's dying with the changes
Like my heart is

I never knew of anything
Quite like you
And now to something
I am losing you

The sweetest kiss we ever kissed
Is drying on our lips
It's savored like the thought of you
Tears were rolling down your cheeks
As you left me empty
Like an open, bleeding wound
Aching to heal and feel the pain
Release me from it's grip
Slowly, yes, but surely
We have both moved on
And we have drifted further
From each other

I never knew of anything
Quite like you
So long ago the day
I finally lost you

And it takes me back
To the memory...

Hot summer
Had you feelin alive
And you let that show
And I'm thankful that you
Never wore anything more
Than what you had to
You never gave me the truth
I guess it's even
In a city so evil
When the girls of summer
Come alive for a season
Set of cleavage
And a body to kill
And you were killin me

Always that far down...
Always that far down...

Always that far down...
Had me nothing but killin time with you
Always that far down...
I did anything that you asked me to

I don't know if you're feelin better
But head strong moves
In this windy weather
Light breaks on a perfect day
Time takes us one more step away

Walk along in this angry season
Still trying to find a reason
Only hours with endless questions
All the girls got an empty lesson

Can you go that far down
And can you do it gracefully?
Can you go that far down?
You don't understand me... (repeat)
