Week 3!!! This one is a tropical house kind of beat. For the lyrics I started the concept with a song topic generator. It was “ A song about someone you like but they like someone else” 
The instrumental was created in GarageBand on iPad and the vocals and mixing were done on Ableton. I remembered that I have a Mixcube and actually used it to mix this one so especially happy with how the mix is this week.
‹ Lyrics
Open Heart
[Verse 1]
You seem like someone I could fall for
Green light feeling this I want to know more
But running circles I find that you’re a closed door
And I’m an open, open heart
Your motions point to another
Damn, bury my head in the sand
Taking this like a door, slammed
Throw your drinks on an open, open heart
[Chorus]
It’s just the way that it seems to be and it’s hard to accept it
I’m hoping and hoping but I cannot figure it out
A flame with no air should go out
But it burns on it burns on
It’s just the way that it seems to be and it’s hard to accept it
I’m hoping and hoping but I cannot figure it out
A flame with no air should go out
But it burns on it burns on
Open, open heart
[Verse 2]
Something to work on but it’s me
Its something I need to work on
Its something to work on but its me
It goes on it goes on
And now I’m all alone on a dance floor
Could anything so sad?
So sad when it rains it pours
Washed up like whale on a shore
Lying here doesn’t feel so bad
But the eyes on me say I’m an eyesore
That’s an open, open heart
[Chorus]
It’s just the way that it seems to be and it’s hard to accept it
I’m hoping and hoping but I cannot figure it out
A flame with no air should go out
But it burns on it burns on
It’s just the way that it seems to be and it’s hard to accept it
I’m hoping and hoping but I cannot figure it out
A flame with no air should go out
But it burns on it burns on
