Description:
I probably couldn't create pure metal for my life, so don't consider my genre choice an absolute one. This song is a bit more like a brief excerpt from a poem, with some hard-hitting background ambience. And it's probably not nearly as long as I want it to be yet. I'll be adding more verses, but I haven't decided how I want to vary the sound throughout the progression (if anyone has ideas for that, I'd be most grateful.)

A few words on the poem itself: The melody sung is a slightly higher-key and more haunting variation of the already-haunting original, which has a quite airy and loose feel to it, whereas this version is backed by something quite hard. The singing won't always be recognizable, but that wasn't my priority.

With that, I always love your feedback, fellow MacJammers. Thank you for listening!

Lyrics:
Walk into my world
And here you can dream

Rainbows passing
Sunset fading
Beauty on a dropper tip

When we see them
We wave goodbye
Smiles are brighter than we know

Hearts glide higher
Tongues trill softer
Paths collide in clouds' decree
Footfall brings us ever nearer
Search of you and search of me

short. You say you have other verses to add? That would work, I think. Even you didn't feel like adding to it, you could let the intro stretch on a bit, and insert more of an instrumental break - maybe a solo or something? I like the ambience you achieve - it does have a spooky vibe. The mix lacks sharpness to my ears - again, this could be your intent, given the genre and all. Cool track. Nicely done. Peace.

its less heavy metal than a mix of electro an a sound like the old band killing joke, but i'm very impressed
