Description
This is the first song I've completed since I moved to the middle of the ocean (Maui), I seems like I have a hundred ideas and melodies swimming around my head and this is the first complete thought that's popped out in a long time. My wife, Meg, was kind enough to comtribute the backing vocals, she will be posting some of her own tunes in the future. Please comment if you take the time to listen, feedback is much appreciated. Aloha.

Lyrics
Lying in the gutter and I'm feeling pretty weak
Tried to call my brother but someone kicked in my teeth
They say"be righteous to eachother and we'll all stand on our feet"
but what's gospel here on sunday, by the weekend just sounds cheap
Can i rise again
From the ashes were i fell
Let me be the first to turn my cheek and wish you well
You finally found freedom from the strings that held you down
But you left me in the ground
Will you ever comeback down?
Can we sing the same songs we sang so long ago
I tried to sing without you but got stuck in my throat
Now I walk the desert with a canteen that i've spilt
I guess that I deserve this I guess now I know how it feels
Bridge:
So near the truth to who we are
Somewhere beyond these doors we'll learn
To leave the light on to chase away the dark
And these scars will burn...
...no more
Tried to call my brother but someone kicked in my teeth
They say"be righteous to eachother and we'll all stand on our feet"
but what's gospel here on sunday, by the weekend just sounds cheap
Can i rise again
From the ashes were i fell
Let me be the first to turn my cheek and wish you well
You finally found freedom from the strings that held you down
But you left me in the ground
Will you ever comeback down?
Can we sing the same songs we sang so long ago
I tried to sing without you but got stuck in my throat
Now I walk the desert with a canteen that i've spilt
I guess that I deserve this I guess now I know how it feels
Bridge:
So near the truth to who we are
Somewhere beyond these doors we'll learn
To leave the light on to chase away the dark
And these scars will burn...
...no more

Nice guitar sound very clear.Proffessional sounding voice,so far sounds kind of folky - violins coming in,female voice - good harmony.Would sound nice with girls voice double tracked in left and right pans.She could be a touch more in sinc with the male voice.IS nice though - it works.She sounds lovely on this part - these scars will burn no more - lovely.Carried me away - nice.CHEERZ
