Sorry about the mixing, my speakers broke and I had to use a super old pair that I haven't worked with in ages. I'm taking my speakers to be repaired this week, and if they break again, I'm going to buy some KRK monitors + subwoofer!
I am actually really happy with the song, just not the mixing. The guitar is supposed to be drowning in reverb, but that's tough to mix. I had this downtempo metal rocker vibe, and this was my attempt. The word "awaiting" isn't grammatically correct here, so it's more like "a-waiting". I really liked the sound of singing the word, so it stays. My singing wasn't 100%; I've just been really depressed this year (like everyone else) and it's hard to want to practice. I'm only doing music now because I'm forced to with WB. I haven't played a show in a long time, and that helped me stay in shape.
I THINK I did a key change. I have no idea. The guitar chords sound pretty cool but you can't like, uh, hear them. Hopefully this is the opposite from last week's Disco Club which was hopefully the opposite of the previous weeks' Night Trap. I just want to win the WB award for most unexpected
Lyrics:
Never wanted to look back and just see my reflection
Never wanted to do anything right
Never wanted to look back and regret my intention
I'm running out of time, how can you be running out of time?
I'm only trying to let go of this, 'cause it controls my mind
Everything imperfect is just fine
The slower I move closer to it, the more it shows the light
I'm running out of time, how can you be running out of time?
I've been waiting a long time for you.
