Skirmish prompt: medicine
Apologies for the crackling in the mix - trying to diagnose and fix that issue.
V1:
The icy rain
A slippery sidewalk
Traffic in the street
A tired brain
Angry backtalk
You give up in defeat
PRE
Every day a little more
Like luggage stacked against your door
Make's you want to lie down on the floor
CH:
So you take a sip of Life's Bitter Medicine
Understanding things won't go your way, most of the time
A daily dose of Life's Bitter Medicine
Accept and change your outlook on a dime
V2:
A stranger's smile
A silly dog
Laughter from afar
Then just like that
You're soaking wet
Splashed on by a car
PRE
Most days you're head's held high
Difficulties pass right by
Other days you just let out a sigh
CH:
So you take a sip of Life's Bitter Medicine

You know i like the piano stuff best! Sage advice, its really what sets us apart.our ability to choose response and feel. Good one.

True ain't it, not all medicine comes in a pill and not all medicine is pleasant. Well done.

great piano playing
love the harmonies in the chorus
my fav part is
A stranger's smile
A silly dog
Laughter from afar
Then just like that
You're soaking wet
Splashed on by a car
Bravo! great skirmish!

I like this theme. Love all the images in the verses. Lovey music and smooth vocals. I feel like this could be music for a movie. Awesome skirmish!

Really like the idea of changing your outlook. Like the different focus between the verses. Love the harmonies in the chorus.

Nice work! Lyrics and piano and vocal melody are really good. Shame for the noise on the recording. I am curious what something like izotope rx could do to fix it, or maybe just rerecording it is the plan? Reminds me of like a ben folds five track. Really nice work!!
