Original FAWM '04 Notes
This one came when I was playing around with a partial capo. It was set on the second fret on the DGB strings. (A position) The chord progression popped some words in and basically the rest was FAWMed. It's about cultivating a personal image for the masses.
I apologize for the guitar sound. It sounded much better on the acousting, but because of a tough micing situation, I had to use a pickup, and it ended up not sounding as good that way.
As always, please forgive the vocals... sinus infection and all that.
New Notes
Most of the comments I got about this song were about lyrical obscurity. I think I tried to hard to make it less blatant and, of course, went too far. I'm planning to ressurect and polish the chord progression from this, because I really like the sound, at least how I hear it in my head.
LYRICS
Round and Round MP3
Round and round
We’re always going
We’re never showing
But we’re never showing
Who we are
Merry go round
First up then we’re down
Trade a sin for a crown
Then fall to the ground
Not so far
Count the fare
Before the stop
Wave to the crowd
Before the drop
This mirror’s worn out
It’s time to shop
For an image not so clear
Along those lines
In this enterprise
Build powerful size
On elegant lies
To yourself
A crack in the line
A flaw in design
This image’s not mine
The rides out of time
Everyone off
