Lyrics

One Star

It’s all gone I did it all wrong And now this road goes on and on and on On and on and on

And I dwell In this shitty hotel Thinking of the words I didn’t say And I regret every day

—-

And I lay in bed Counting the ceiling tiles instead of Getting off my ass And telling you the truth at last

—-

I’m in a One Star with a fear of dying alone And my mistake Was walking away

I’m in a run down car Racing to the after glow Cuz I gotta go to let you know

—-

That day I threw it all away And the regrets go on and on and on On and on and on

And I cruise With everything lose Thinking of the words I said that night Hoping that I still can make it right

——

Instead of lying in that bed Thinking what I should have said instead of Getting off my ass And telling you the truth at last

—-

I left the One Star praying that your home So i can go And let you know

I’m In a run down car Racing to the after glow Cuz i gotta go And let you know

This is a good piece to power through the block - sometimes you gotta get the thing out to get the thing out and this thing you got out is aces man. Great job!

@gordon 1d

Really like the production on this. It's just such a good soundscape and a head nodded too. Great job

@burrMod 3d

power pop vibes to max! dig rhythmically off rhymes like “bed / instead (of)” cool harmonies. kudos for this:

if you feel this is a draft to put down and move on, well it’s a pretty good draft! welcome to FAWM! 🎉

Thank you! This site is incredible, thank you for creating such an amazing and positive community. Psyched to be here!

This was actually the first song of yours I heard, I hit Random by Fawmling and stumbled upon this. Thought I should go back to the beginning. Most people would kill to get writer's block like yours.

You don't happen to listen to Coheed & Cambria by any chance? This is so evocative of their earlier work, and your harmonies are just like Claudio's. Maybe I'm just hearing it because they're one of my favorite bands, but here we go. Awesome track, yet again.

@wobyen 3d

Coheed is one of my favorite bands too! I am probably subliminally channeling his sound as best as I can, because I listen to them ALL the time.

@beckymusic 5d

I love the guitar on this, especially! The vocals are great too, I love the harmonies (and melody too).

@wobyen 5d

Thank you!!!

@tjeff 5d

Like this title a lot, and love the sound from get-go. Great guitar tone dialed in. Super arrangement all-around, nice vocal and harmonies.

@wobyen 5d

Thanks so much!!!

@damschen 5d

Ooo - love this crunchy guitar!!! Great melody and story. I think this is a winner! And way to go for just pushing ahead. Onward! You never know what will stick in the long run…
