Guitar tuning: CGDGGD (x775x7, no capo)
I was grinding my teeth into sand
Pounding nails into the palm of my hand
Until a person ten years older than me
Used mouth and tongue to call me young
I paid him what I owed him for showing up
I’ll pay it forward if I get around to growing up
I was fretting over way I couldn’t work it
Sparks all over but couldn’t close a circuit
Until a person ten years older than me
Used mouth and tongue to call me young
I was forgetting my place in the order of things
Ignoring subtle vibrations for pitched up pings
Until a person ten years older than me
Used mouth and tongue to call me young

Why is nobody here? There is lots of potential in this song. Interesting topic in the lyrics, a funky modern instrumental, cool vocals. Maybe just a bit of bass. And tighten the piano and it's great!
