In what is becoming a common these for me this FAWM these are more lyrics picked up from FiftyNinty, this time from @littlespiral .
I love the brevity an simplicity of the words and they portray a sadness and a hope at the same time. I hope I have done them justice.
I would love @littlespiral to sing this? What say you all?
I changed *feel* to *conceal* in the second line of the chorus, I think it works better than repeating feel and add another layer of mystery? What is being concealed?
She can actually sing :)
I can feel the loneliness again
Finally I feel something
Anything
Again
I can feel the absence once again
And Oh, I can feel human
I am hurting for what never was
I am happy for the hurt because
I am finally alive
Thought I was dead inside
But I'm alive
I can feel
I know I'm hurting
But at least something
Feels real
But I'm alive
I conceal
I know I'm hurting
But at least something
Feels real

This is an example of how expectations colour what you see and hear. I misread the line "She can actually sing" in the liner notes to mean that she actually sang on this one. Hence, my brain heard a female backing voice. However, having been told by you that there is none. I return and listen and hear clearly that it is a high male voice not a low female one.
Ah, the power of suggestion, eh?

Love the general atmosphere of this one and the angst ridden lyrics.
I love those deep female vocals.

Omg... speechless! You took it in such a lovely direction - thank you! I'll take a stab at singing - can you send me an isolated track?
@silvermediapro Feb 2022
yooo this guitar is so soothing & dreamy, & your vocals glide over it wonderfully!
@sherrylynnlee Feb 2022
Beautiful lyrics and I like the ethereal direction you went with it musically. Nice work!

Great playing there. Actually, it all sounds good.

Nice craft and so blue feelings pouring out of my speakers...

Gorgeous vocals, lyrics, guitar! I found myself singing along, which I never do during FAWM. One of my favorites so far.

Such sad and touching lyrics! But I love the feeling of things improving, and you added that feeling of hope to the melody. Great job!
