I know my songs can be a bit short, and after reading some feedback on Rest (For A Bit), I decided to try and make it a complete song. You can see that I didn’t really finish it due to the (Demo) part of the song title. That creative block that had me a couple of weeks before came back for round 2.

In any case, the chorus, bridge, and outro (I think those are the terms, anyway) are done. The only thing that I can’t really get past are the two verses. The way the chorus should be sung is imitated by a piano in this demo. If anyone wants to sing on it, tell me. I’ll put the multitracks on ccMixter later so others can take a stab at remixing this song.

I hope you enjoy, regardless of its incomplete state.

Lyrics

Chorus
Turn the lights out
Even only for the night you won’t be troubled by the world
Put your head down
Close your eyes for just a moment or however long you feel you should
When no one else will be there for you
If you’ll have me, I’d like to

Bridge:
I know that things can get hard
And people won’t understand why
We’ll pick up all of those things tomorrow
But for right now

Outro:
Turn the lights out
Even only for the night you won’t be troubled by the world
Put your head down
Close your eyes for just a moment or however long you feel you should
When no one else will be there for you
If you’ll have me, If you’ll have me

These old photographs are all faded anyway
You should go out sometime and take new ones
