Dave's Random Song From the Catalogue Offering #48: Gravity

Gravity — this is on Spotify, but you can find it on any of your favorite streaming services. Give it a spin.

This is from my first album, and I can certainly hear the flaws in this early work. But I’m still proud of having made it — and, more importantly, of having the courage to put it out there. When I first started, releasing something I had created and sharing it with the public took a lot of courage.  Words to those hesitant about sharing your art. Just fucking do it.

 

 

Gravity

by David Husted 

V1

I think I’ll write you, a shiny song

Sing a melody, painted pretty white lies

Instead of words, I should have said

I’ll wipe those salty tears with empty promises

 

Broken trust, and tabled dreams

Your horizon’s ever increasing Gravity

Sneak out the window and take flight

Circle ancient towers turned into parking lots


 

Mist, the sweet mist, after summer rains,

Clear blue day ahead, but I’m not seeing it

Near the crest we breathe, out to the heights

A hopeful rhythm rising, but there is no land in sight

 

Ch1

Sweep the floor clean of sad memories

Hate craving more hate or love’s simplicity

Echo’s, I hear your echoes, in this empty room

Just water rippling into ocean storms

 

V2 repeat V1
