This started as an acoustic guitar and MicroFreak idea before growing.

It's a song about running away to the forest to hide from life. Possibly in a hide. Why the person runs is unclear. Was it fear, pride, or selfishness?

The backing is produced using Logic X with real bass, guitar, and Logic Drummer, and I make a guest vocal appearance halfway through. Vocals are AI, based upon my own performance, as are the strings. Everything else is human, including lyrics, chords, structure, etc.

This turned out much more chilled than I thought it might. Enjoy.

[verse 1] I was thinking, Watching smoke, As the wind brushes my skin,

In the forest, In the woods, Am I lost? Did I win?

[chorus] What is simple? In this life, I still shake, Inside,

Left my home, Left them all, I came here To hide,

[Verse 2] Just the weather, Telling me, If I sit or if I stand,

Am I forgiven? Or forgotten, Did I ever understand?

[chorus] What is simple? In this life, I still shake, Inside,

Left my home, Left them all, I came here To hide.

[middle] So far I stumbled, And the crows call out for me, And the crows call out for me,

Dry leaves they crumbled, Like my own self-belief, Like my own self-belief.

[guitar solo]

[chorus] What is simple? In this life, I still shake, Inside.

Left my home, Left them all, I came here To hide.
