Just finished this one. Spent much longer on mixing and sound editing than usual. Hopefully it turned out well! Any feedback's of course appreciated! Cheers

Don't know how to rush

But I can't slow down

Cuz I only got one speed

And that speed's go

And I'm only at my best

when I gotta be now

This high-stress mess

is my comfort zone

My high-stress messed up comfort zone

My high-stress messed up comfort zone

My high-stress messed up comfort zone

Oh, but you may wanna go

This thing may be about to blow

 

He said hey wait hold up why ain't ya shaking

Haven't even blinked when everybody's fainting

Speed your heart must be palpitating

All the caffeine and pills that you're taking

So I said b please breathe we're just playing

Sneaky wire scheme fake green

ground supply line seems right

hold tight see if I'm not mistaken

yup that wasn't it, yikes

Now the fuse timer's racing

 

Don't know how to rush

But I can't slow down

Cuz I only got one speed

And that speed's go

And I'm only at my best

when I gotta be now

Cuz a high-stress mess

is my comfort zone

 

Can't see sightless no fright fight I guess I'm making up a rhyme

No reason why

Pull a cord this one seems fine

I cut the line then frozen time

 

For lights to shine and to hear sirens blaze

Cameras flash outside check my hair's amazing shameless boredom, dexedrine, a calloused heart, a hero's made

I picked a part and played it

Just pick a part and play it

Cuz everybody's faking

 

Don't know how to rush

But I can't slow down

Cuz I only got one speed

And that speed's go

And I'm only at my best

when I gotta be now

Cuz a high-stress mess

is my comfort zone

This high-stress mess is my comfort zone

This high-stress mess is my comfort zone

This high-stress mess is my comfort zone

Cuz if this thing's about to blow

Not like we're ever gonna know

 

 

Wait, hold up, I'm kidding it's alright

don't drop the light

I see the fear in your eyes

but I think well be alright

got a bit uh time I think

we'll probably still make it

Hell, worst case a sky high vacation

Aaaaand fuck great buddy's running away

And now I'm talking to myself so I guess I'm insane

and I've got no light

just cuz the bomb may bite

Can't see sightless no fright fight I guess I'm making

Up a rhyme no reason why

Pull a cord this one seems fine

I cut the line then frozen time

And BAM DEFUSED I guess that's why when you don't know they say to just fake it

Then I light a smoke and wait just a wee bit

For lights to shine abc to hear sirens blaze

Cameras flash outside check my hair's amazing shameless boredom Dexedrine a calloused heart a hero's made picked a part and played it

Meh, I suppose I'm happy with either or. I tend to post my songs to the lyric library, simply because I like to post the lyrics to they're easier to critique, but don't really want to blow this place up with double posts on everything. Btw, I see you're new. Welcome!

You get weirder and weirder, Rhys 🙂 I like that about you, but I can't make out a word of this. Is that intentional? If so, it kind of makes writing the lyrics a waste of your time LOL.

Hey Gavin, thanks for the feedback and sorry for the late reply (been a hectic week). Tried to clean the mixing up a bit, not finding it too hard to make out (for the most part), but I've got biased ears. Hopefully it's better. Hope you're doing well! Cheers

Hello Rhys, Thank you for sharing, and this is classic Rhys.  Never thought of this kind of subject matter for a song, but it is at the least mind blowing, lol.  Took a couple of times listening and reading the lyric before I could wrap my mind around it, but I finally got it.  Keep em coming my friend, I always enjoy what you put out there.  Good luck and best wishes,

Speak soon

Nope, still completely unintelligible unless you are reading along. It's a pity, because I really like the sound. If you were to ease back on the distortion so that the words could be made out and maybe use the choppy effect a little more sparingly, I think you'd really have something here. It's not that I don't like the choppy effects - they should definitely stay - just that there are places where it starts to take off musically only to be brought to a screeching halt 🙂

I really like the lyric.
