Finished song written by my son who is playing the acoustic, electric and bass guitars as well as the keyboard. His girlfriend Caroline is background vocals with him on the tag.
Here are the lyrics: This Crime - Pierce
I count the days as they pass, but it doesn't soothe me.
I feel contained, feel controlled by these walls.
This room is spinning, it is spinning, it is spinning around
me.
I've been in here for too long.
Sleeping in the bright of day,
sleeping all my troubles away.
Trying to go back in time,
trying to reverse this crime.
I've got a Sudanese shoe that doesn't fit me.
My arms are folded but my tongue is tied.
The world is turning, it is turning, it is turning without me.
I'm stuck in line, right behind all the others.
Sleeping in the bright of day,
sleeping all my troubles away.
Trying to go back in time,
trying to reverse this crime.
Wandering this hollow place,
wondering if it'll be our grave.
All we know is where we go.
I've been running all night, but they're gonna catch me.
I've been told that I am a pessimistic optimist who looks at the worst first but sees the hope always. I'm extremely dichotomous and ridiculously prejudiced. I love laughing though I never get the joke. I love watching the leaves dancing on the trees in the breeze, the clouds roll by through a deep blue sky and the stars twinkle at night. I am governed by the moon. I was dropped off, left under a rock in the New Mexico desert one dark night by the mother ship and I am anxiously awaiting my ride home - whatever planet that may be. The curious thing - my friends all agree.
