Covers and Original Songs

[WildHearted]

I've taken on the challenge of writing songs for people I (mostly) don't know on Tumblr... I think I've done 8 so far.

This one I just did today.

Here's something I came up with today. My mom actually wrote the first verse and I finished it and put it to music.

It's unfortunately titled 'Storms' because it seemed the most obvious. But there's no relation to the Fleetwood Mac song



Storms, they pass and fail
But I’m too frail to take a stand
Storms, they come and go
But they don’t show my shaking hands

I step out on sinking sand
But my heart doesn’t understand
Every second I’m pulled in
The storm begins to sing again

Storms, their rule is harsh
They keep their watch on those like me
Storms, their rage is deep
But I escape them in my sleep

I step out on timeless dreams
That my heart wants me to believe
Every second I’m pulled in
Until the storm begins again

Storms, their winds will blow
But I will keep on going strong
Storms, their fate is known
But mine is an unfinished song

I step out on watered roads
Still my heart beats beneath my clothes
Every second I’m pulled in
But I’ve begun to sing again

Every second I’m pulled in
But I’ve begun to sing again

Wonderful!! I feel like if Stevie ever heard it, she'd really like your stuff. Your voice is totally unique. Your lyrics and phrasing slightly reminds me of a group from Florida called Vesper Sparrow:

Wrote this one the other day.... on an out of tune piano.



Also, I'm applying to a songwriting program at a university and I have to send in 3 songs, so I'm in the process of getting those three recorded somewhat decently. This is an a capella snippet of one that I'm currently working on for that.
