Feb 2022 singer-songwriter acoustic-one-take kobymusictx demo
This about some accusations that were thrown my way by someone close to me, but most of them were based in false memory or a certain amount brainwashing that had occurred. The accusations less than accurate by a long shot.
This demo is wobbly. I basically rewrote all the lyrics before I recorded it so some of the melody isn't quite nailed down. That being said, I think I have a real winner here once I nail the vocal part down and make some further modifications to the lyrics. And I think my chorus really pops.
What is this, what is this brand new crime
Tell me is it mine or just another lie
Or is it a new design, one meant to vilify
The one that consistently tries and provide
Where did you get these charges from
Was it from the one that left you behind
They sound a lot like some else’s tune
The one that plays every couple of moons
Oh tell me what’s my offense
Oh you’re treading on dangerous ground
Oh you left me no defense
Oh you’re treading on dangerous ground
You’re holding onto distant things
And with a child’s eyes you scrutinize
I find it troubling that you never understand
You attack the one holding your hand
Oh tell me what’s my offense
Oh you’re treading on dangerous ground
Oh you left me no defense
Oh you’re treading on dangerous ground
Nothing left to own so you to borrow these false memories of sorrow
It often feels like what isn’t mine always seems to find me in time
Oh tell me what’s my offense
Oh you’re treading on dangerous ground
Oh you left me no defense
Oh you’re treading on dangerous ground
You’re treading on dangerous ground
You’re treading on dangerous ground

I think you've definitely got some good stuff in here. I can hear how you're working through the melody and agree once its nailed down it'll be a good one. I really enjoyed the lyric as well.
