Lyrics
Drink the water down You tell yourself it’s fine Put the phone down Just one minute try, try, try Wish I was the one you chose that night Never could put up much of a fight
Stuck inside my mind Pack it up lets go go go You were still so kind When you said goodbye
Talking to myself inside this house, alone Music playing the background I don’t know Remembering the floor, I got it off the ground I would rather die than make a sound
Stuck inside my head Pack it up lets go go go No longer in good stead Time to say goodbye

Thank you again :)
I really like the movement on your low strings, particularly the hammer on bit into the chorus. It really adds a lot to the transition. The lofi string squeaks also fit well with the intimate feel of the recording. Nice song.
Thanks! I was also a fan of the bonus string noise that came through. Glad you enjoyed my song, thank you for listening :)
Beautiful finger style playing and tender, vulnerable vocals. Oh what a beautiful pause on "goodbye". I totally dig your indie folk vibe and this song sounds really special to me. Wonderful writing and performing. I am guessing also it is a nicely done acoustic one-take which I always enjoy.
I'm so glad that you connected with this song and that you enjoyed it! Yes, it's an acoustic one-take - I'm awful at timing otherwise, haha.
Another great one, you've got a lot in you coming out in each track. That entire second verse is just, line after line, amazingly well written. Your falsetto is impeccable on the chorus as well. Raw and true.
