It’s been a wild couple weeks!
I feel like I blinked and POOF
just like that I missed
last week’s journal entry!
“Stay Awake” has almost
all guitars & drums complete.
Its current state can be heard on
the Songs-in-Progress page for it.
Omg the WORST thing ever
happened with it though…
I was working on guitar parts
and at some point during
my session, I lost a third of
all the drum parts Sam recorded
a week prior! DELETED! GONE.
I tried pulling up backup
autosaves and NOTHING
was helping bring back
what I somehow deleted.
I wasted a couple hours
searching for it late one night
when finally I realized
it must have happened
for the better, maybe it
would push me to revisit
the bridge lyrics which
I haven’t been super happy with
since the inception of this song.
Soooooo… that’s what I did.
And I ended up liking the
new lyrics and vocal melodies
much better than
what was there before.
Sam and I are meeting again on
Sunday though to finalize it all.
Here’s the new lyrics of the bridge
which are still a work in progress:
Second chance and fade away
Understand but never stay
Before it pulls us under
Find the lock but need the key
To embrace this side of me
The drop you never bled before
This won’t hurt you anymore
Seriously can’t wait for this one
to be complete. <3
