Back in the iComps days around 2014 some guy from TN sent me a poem that he thought would be a good lyric. I had never written a song from a lyric but rather vice versa. I was impressed with the depth and sincerity so I tried my best and then got Anne Cozean (Sisters) to sing it and iron it out a bit. I forgot the guy's name, never knew what caused his heartbreak. I recently found the song. Too much piano, needs big overhaul. Have at it kids, if you are interested. I can gmail tracks easily. Apologies for being scarce during shakedown but I have way too many excuses that now are evaporating. I will pull out some other unfinished stuff in a bit and also start commenting more.

Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Barely surviving life
Every day feels the same
Lost in the memories
Screaming your name
When I close my eyes
Sometimes I see your face
Hiding the misery
Holding your grace
(Chorus 1)
Walking through the pouring rain
Memory's driving me insane
I reach out for your hand
But it just turns into sand
Crying your name looking around
I still hear your voices sound
Nothing's right, everything's wrong
Cause you're gone
Yeah you're gone
(Verse 2)
I don't understand
Tell me what it's all about
The meaning of this life
I can't figure it out
Someone has got to know
Cause we live and we die
The cycle unbroken
While our tears run dry
(Chorus 2)
Running through the pouring rain
Voices driving me insane
I reach out for your hand
But it just turns into sand
Hearing your name spinning around
I try to hear your voices sound
Gone insane I'm losing control
Cause you're gone
You're still gone
(Bridge)
We all face our demons alone
Along our path to the unknown
Battles lost are memories won
The end has already begun
(Chorus 3)
Walking through the pouring rain
Memories driving you insane
You reach out for my hand
But it just turns into sand
Screaming my name losing your ground
I can't hear your voices sound
Silence reigns, you're all alone
Cause I'm gone
Yea I'm gone
