Steemit Open Mic Week 74 - Neither Here Nor There (Original) - Tom Ash
Hey guys. After a couple of weeks absence, I'm back with an entry for this week's Steemit Open Mic!
This song is the first piece I ever wrote when experimenting with alternative tunings. I actually pretty much created my own unique tuning for this song and I've stuck with it ever since! I hope you enjoy :)
LYRICS:
I thought we were alright,
Then we'd have another fight.
It's easier to ebb and flow.
And I tried to convince myself,
I could settle for second best,
But it's easier to be on your own.
Suddenly the walls begin to bleed,
And I'm not sure if I'm happy anymore,
I don't care, but I'm neither here nor there,
I'm out of love, and I know it,
I'm feeling so alone.
I feel so alone.
All I ever wanted was to be loved,
But all I ever needed was to give love.
Suddenly the walls begin to bleed,
And I'm not sure if I'm happy anymore,
I don't care, but I'm neither here nor there,
I'm out of love, and I know it,
I'm feeling so alone.
I feel so alone.
Peace, love, music, crypto.
Tom
Realy nice tune, best things in life happen by accident. I finished composing something that started more then 10 years ago and was also in a wierd tuning. Now i consider it one of my best music pieces. All i am aaying is when u try to do something different and succeed it is the best saddisfaction ever ;) Good job again
Hey @tomista, cheers!
Haha that's so true, all the best inventions are accidental!!
What a beautiful song @tomashofficial! Really great performance.
Cheers, @luzcypher! :D
Voice like butter.... SO smooth. Love this.
Thanks so much @addiesworld :D
I had a lucky take - normally my voice doesn't behave itself so well!
Outstanding, Sir Tomas! Nice, brother!
Thanks, @passion-ground !
Wow dude! I really enjoy this kind of talent, beautiful harmony, perfect guitar finger style, and your voice is awesome too.
Nice to find good musicians in here, I realize that there is a lot for learning, thanks for your post.
