Charmed Life: "STRANGER" (with lyrics)
I've rewritten "Charmed Life" a few times, on romance/burnout/etc., and this iteration ("STRANGER") is def my favorite.
Fixed my mic placement, which un-hides the vocals and un-muddies the guitar somewhat, which lets me get as dwamatic as I want with the dynamic range & tone, breath, etc. 😄
There's still a bit of a guitar fuckup at the start, but hey, at least you know it's made by people...
== LYRICS ==
I want some
Strange eyes, weird love
The kinda guys I’m dreaming of
A premonition that’s haunting me
I need a sense of humor
That’s just a little off; he takes a
Little Scotch in his hot coffee
Likes it smoky or likes it sweet
For sure, I am whole on my own
Don’t need no one in my home
My own little zone
Just leave me alone
With my
B-movie actors from the past
I stare at the jacked lady from the videogame cast
Keeps me dreaming of somebodies…
I’d like a little swagger, can play a little rough
But knows a strong heart don’t have to play it tough
Let me hold you through the thunder…
For now, they can stay in my mind
Don’t have the space, nor the time
‘Til maybe I find
Those eyes of a certain kind
‘Til then, I’m a
Contented bachelor – feral trash –
Hot chaos – but at long last,
I see other futures
With other strange creatures
To share my adventures…
Some other day.
