I just wrote and recorded this song... its done on acoustic guitar and has vocals but it is intended to be changed for a full band and have electric guitars and distortion for the chorus.
the vocals are kept quiet and breathy, but with the full band there will be added "grrrrrrr" as ive heard it been described... if you have listened to any of my other songs, youll know what i mean Verse-1 Sometimes I can see, through empty words though hidden, can lead me astray from danger, through the darkness waiting for the next time we come Build Up closing in, its alright again, this time we can break the cycle we can stop it from starting again together, united we stand pushing harder, just understand Chorus Wait, for the first time it disapears they hide beyond the stars the way these words seem so severe just wait for another day, theres no more conversations no theres no more complications this day we shall break the cycle or walk away Verse-2 your eyes have changed, to match the soul screaming past, the crowded rooms so stop the tricks and slow the time what has gone cannot be mine the seeds of life, shall carry on breaking through the crack of dawn now i see through shades of grey know that we can stop them id love to hear your thoughts on the song and just so you know it isnt finished yet the lyrics stand to change too, but you get the idea

Nice build up! Nice voice! Nice acoustic sound!
BUT.... sometimes the vocals aren't all tight, but hard to describe Overall... Cool!! -------------------- |

Your voice sort of reminds me that dude from R.E.M.
I liked the recording and sound as well - I would just maybe tone the presence up for the guitar. But thats just cosmetic and also depends on listener Very good job as always -------------------- my youtube account with riffs and ideas: http://www.youtube.com/user/Phoenygzus

Dude, you know I have always liked your stuff and this is just great! If you were to record this tune in a studio with some engineering, imo, you could send this to some radio stations as a demo and get some airplay..
