Exorcise
Skirmish: Exorcise (@atornberg)Liner Notes
Thanks to the prompt from @atornberg for this prompt or "exercise" which got me out of my song rut! I immediately set onto it after I finished work today, I just threw a drum loop on there and played around on the electric guitar to see what spilled out. A lot of fun.
Don't worry, no contracts have been signed. XD
Lyrics
We made the deal on a quiet night “I’ll pay with blood?” Yeah it’s undersigned
You brought a pen from a cheap motel “And for location?” Well, I’d say it’s hell It’s hell
Is it time to exercise your rights? Or exorcise me?
We took the wheel on a Friday Night I have to say boy, we’re quite a sight
Do you think the world would stand and fight? Or do you think they have a softer side? Inside
There’s still time Don’t you want to exercise? Or exorcise me?
That’s right
It was a fiery night Released the beast inside
You made a clause As I thought you might “No tails” but horns I don’t mind
You can’t sleep And you can’t exorcise Exorcise me Exorcise me Exorcise me

A gogod drum loop at that! Nice vocal and effects, delay particularly in the left ear! A really solid enjoyable rock track driven by that guitar! I love the spaces!
I like the yodel at lights made a clause As I thought you might “No tails” but horns I don’t mind
That’s a funny boundary!
i appreciate the left channel of my headphones being haunted with the vocals shadows
and this reminds me of velvet underground or patti smith or violet femmes - you have great vocals! what were you thinking about as a fav band?
i love "exorcise me" as a chorus
This is such a fun take on this prompt! Awesome skirmish work!
Always good to include songs about demons in Rock n' Roll. I like the sound. I could see this doing very well in front of an audience.
Rockin' it. "It was a fiery night Released the beast inside" paints a strong picture.
This is so much fun! I love the groove and the vocal style. The wordplay in your lyrics is great. Love this... Hahaha... 😈

A super cool new wave kind of song! I really like how you’ve created a scene and story with the outer details. What a great song and a skirmish no less!!
