Day 217: Workin' Stuff Out

There's been much more drama in my daily life than I care to experience here in the last 6 months or so.  I'm frequently using my "music time" to work out some of my personal issues.  This is one of those instances.

The piece is maybe just a throwaway, as it was a basis for experimentation with Now and Later by the Chronologists.

Here are the lyrics:

You set an unrealistic expectation of where you want your life to go.
You tell yourself that you can make it happen.  
When it all starts to fall apart you are decimated.
You'd be elated if you could do more.

That's what's going to happen.  
And that's what's going to keep happening.

You wouldn't wish this fate on your enemy, but you bestow it on me.
You wouldn't dare to push someone else like this, but you do it to me.

Day 77: Film Still Not Made

More music for a film that has yet to be made.

  This one finds our heroine stuck in a tight spot.  She is looking out over the land where the antagonist has her cornered, then looking back at her rag-tag group of followers.

•   Will she launch a full-on assault and fight her way out? 
• Will she hide and ambush him when he comes looking for her?  
• Will she come up with some third option that is truly original and no one in the theatre is expecting?  

What ever the case may be, you probably shouldn't get up to go to the bathroom right now.


Looks like it's about to get real.

Just for reference I keep going back to these drums.  They aren't the only ones here, but they are key.  In addition, the piano came from this.
