Some of this is true, and some of it isn’t.

ON THE THRESHOLD(Where Ya’ Goin?)

I’m a middle class woman with white trash woes
worried that my daughter’s gonna end up like a ho’
worried that my son is gonna end up in the clink
worried ‘bout my man ‘cuz all he wanna do is drink
I work my finger to the bone to try to make this house a home
still I have another one who only wants to roam
it don’t matter where you come from — it just matters where ya’ goin’
the road to hell is paved with good intentions all gone wrong

I’m a crazy crazy mama who just loves you so
I want to keep you close to me while I let you go
I want to see your spirit free — I wanna watch it soar
I want to feel you next to me, next to me once more

(Woah… woah… woah… )

It don’t matter where you come from — it just matters where ya going
the road to hell is paved with good intentions all gone wrong
it don’t matter where you come from — it just matters where ya goin’
where ya goin’?
(SPOKEN)

It appeared after you left
almost as big as my hand
a moth
brown velvet with tapestry wings
for three days it lingered on the threshold

This is a pretty basic track — drums, bass, guitar and vocals. It could possibly use an accent — horns, keys, strings…proper production. I simply had to stop working on this song because every time I made an adjustment, that generated several other adjustments… etc. I did experiment with production techniques I learned on the internet. That was fun.
