My lying heart

  • Digital Album

    Tuneful, guitar-driven pop-rock, with a country-soul heart.

    I wrote most of these songs in a month as part of a songwriting challenge. They provided a nice contrast to the near 18 months I'd spent on Misguided Souls and, to my surprise, were actually really good.

    There are more from this batch that I'll work on with my new bad in 2011. You'll also hear a couple of these re-recorded on our first EP.

    I wrote, recorded and played everything at home using Nuendo and Cubase. BFD and Kontakt provided the drum sounds, and Guitar Rig 3/4 did all the guitar stuff.

    The instruments were: Peavey Generation Tele, Fender Telecaster, Takamine electro-acoustic (in its final recorded appearance - I have a new squeeze), Fender Jazz Bass, and my voice.

Track Name: Tonight
I wasn't everything you wanted
I can see it in your eyes
Your love was always
A brilliant disguise

Maybe we couldn't tell till now
What each other was thinking about
Right now I don't want to talk
About these feelings that won't stop

Hold your thoughts, tonight I'm yours
I want you so bad, tonight I'm yours
Hold me close and tell me lies
Because I chose to be here tonight

Let's not say it was the best thing
In our lives
You never made my heart sing
I didn't make your world bright

Maybe when we found out
What each other was thinking about
Right now I don't want to talk
Till these feelings have stopped

Hold your thoughts, tonight I'm yours
I want you so bad, tonight I'm yours
Hold me close and tell me lies
Because I chose to be here tonight

Maybe everything that we've gone through
Is a burning effigy of what we're going to lose
Well I don't know what you want
But I saw you stop
Before we say it's lost
I want us to talk

Hold those thoughts, tonight I'm yours
I want you so bad, tonight I'm yours
Hold me close and tell me lies
Because I chose to be here tonight
Track Name: Lying heart
It's beating so hard
I swear I don't know
How you failed to hear the bang
As my heart explodes
And I know I walked you home
But I think I should go
Then you take my hand
And turn the lights down low

Oh it always starts
With the light making shapes in the dark
And my lying heart
Saying your kisses won't leave a mark
But it's getting so hard
To hear my lying heart

Don't tell me what I want
Or what's on my mind
Cause I know I can't stop
Wanting you all of the time
And I'm kissing you now
There's no way I can run
Because my lying heart
Has found all its lies undone

Oh it always starts
With the light making shapes in the dark
And my lying heart
Saying your kisses won't leave a mark
But it's getting so hard
To hear my lying heart
