Before It Starts To Break

Liner Notes
I am going top heavy on Fawm for sure... You could call this #bossapop I guess?
This is one of those ones I may not publish in other circumstances, but just going for it to get another point on the board. For the art of the grind ;) Dude also my garage setup definitely has a grounding issue, I had to do all of the vocals with one hand on my Mac to avoid the buzz lol.
Lyrics
Suffering For the art of the grind Somethin more, pushes on me To keep my feet out the door
Screamin at the old house On the hill The one we used to adore And now it’s walls are smashed and torn
But now I guess, I guess
Things got away, from me before I could catch them in my arms Open embrace, let it escape from you Before it starts to break It starts to break
Simple clock, that I placed on the wall Not reading time, anymore I forgot what it’s for Tried to mend that old hole in my shoe But it fixed it self without you
Things got away, from me before I could catch them in my arms Open embrace, let it escape from you Before it starts to break It starts to break
Noticed myself, I was underneath the covers The whole time And you knew it Forgot who we, who we were At the core I just miffed it And i miss it
Things got away from me before But I caught them in my arms I’ll let it heal itself from the core And I’ll let go let it go before Before it starts to break Before it starts to break

I'll take as much bossa-pop as I can get. Love how it opens up to a more intense chorus - with an awesome melody too, very earworm-y. The vocal jumps in "things got away" really get me.
Really like this! Great vocal and guitar playing! Lyrics and melody are really nice too, especially the chorus. Sweet vibe!
Definitely a left turn for you, but might be worth exploring because it’s kinda sick. Love how heroic your singing gets in the chorus.
