Description:
This librarian read to many romance novels. I also made some use of the Whammy pedal on themain rythm guitar to give it a chattering tremolo effect as well as one of the lead guitars. An interesting toy.

Lyrics:
She was feeling alone
Sitting there by the phone
She looks in the mirror
Reflects a face of fear

There's no one to call friend
No love letters to send
Lost deep in her dreams
In the books she reads

chorus
Shes the librarian
she reads you like a book
she's the librarian
She'll give you the look
Get out quickly
Your life is spinning from grace

Stalking a long last man
With a gun in her hand
It is his downfal
He did'nt return the call

She loved but hated his face
Like a book she turned the page
This chapter is over
Turns and runs for cover

chorus

Books don't let her down
She's a librarin downtown
Dewey Decimal is not around
Filed under lost and found

She is lost in the page
Black and white and gray
Is there no love to give
To the librarian

Chorus

There were some interesting riffs here and I like the guitar sound but I think you need to work on this a bit more. There were some tempo problems I think. I think the song would really benefit from a stronger drum presence. You should go back and layer additional drum fills in. I think the vocals need to stand out more since they are carrying the melody. Maybe increase the gain and add some more reverb. I think the "Ambient Vocals" setting from GB2 might work well here..you can copy the channel stripping from than and past it onto your vocal track to see how it sounds.

I didnt really connect with the lyrics or the metaphore but I liked the Beetleish feel it had. I would say definitly keep working on this project as it sounds promising.
