I'm having some trouble with the song genre catagory for most of my music. I'm open to feedback on that. Anyway this is a work-in-progress.

Lyrics
hear you calling but i don't know what for
hear you calling but the truth shut the door
hear you saying that you're not like them
hear you talking but the night has come
(you steal my love to set you free)
my fire you saw when you called its secret name
the secret name you came in knowing from your own flame
our flames our saddest pains bend and flicker the same
but for me you'd never come; i forfeit this game
(you steal my love to set you free)
hear you calling but the truth shut the door
hear you saying that you're not like them
hear you talking but the night has come
(you steal my love to set you free)
my fire you saw when you called its secret name
the secret name you came in knowing from your own flame
our flames our saddest pains bend and flicker the same
but for me you'd never come; i forfeit this game
(you steal my love to set you free)

Don't worry too much about genres... sometimes it helps to choose an appropriate genre, so that people who only look in a narrow category of music, will find your music. But I can see how this music is hard to classify. Dark ballad? Anyway, very pretty piano piece, dark and moody, nicely played. The singing was appropriately sparse, and you have a nice voice. As you may have noticed with your recording, it is REALLY HARD to record a live piano. I think you did nicely here. You may want to try recording the piano first on one track, then recording your singing separately on a different track, so you can play with the volume and effects on each track separately. In this case, you could add some equalizer "boost" to the higher frequencies of your voice to make it more clear and not so muddy sounding.
I hope these are helpful ideas. I really enjoyed this! And a belated welcome to Macjams.
