Hey friends, I need to come clean.... I know this is "Weekly Beats", but for me it's going to be more like "Monthly Beats", as in my personal goal is to finish one song every month (which would be a big deal for me!).

I initially imagined this song being a lot heavier with a more punk rock vibe, but since I can't play guitar chords to save my life I had to use keyboard instead. Alas...

I did however experiment with reverb and double tracking in the mix this time which was a fun learning experience.

This song is about having romantic feelings for someone your not "supposed" to and having to hide it. (Shout out to my queer fam!)

To The Grave

I don't know how much longer

I can keep this up

I'm hiding my true feelings

and shutting it all down

Too much longing, too much fire

Someone's going to get burned

All these feelings spiral out of control

Someone's going to get hurt

It's going with me to the grave

It can't be, but it won't leave

It doesn't matter how I feel

It's going with me to the grave

Secrets are only safe for so long

I dread the day the truth comes out

Never wanted to hurt anybody

And I ache with guilt and doubt

The faintest touch, sends a spark

Is this real or in my head

Fleeting looks, full of meaning

I will hold this til I'm dead

It's going with me to the grave

It can't be but it won't leave

It doesn't matter how I feel

It's going with me to the grave

Sometimes I wish you'd learn to hate me

It might help put out the flame

Sometimes I wish you'd confirm my worst fear

Your kindness is kerosene

It's going with me to the grave

It can't be but it won't leave

It doesn't matter how I feel

It's going with me to the grave
