[writing something every day] day 3: guilty

hey SDC : )
today is the day I post 2 of these to catchup, I'm a day behind on my posting. thanks for all the love on the sad ditty from yesterday. the emotions this week are varied and flowing freeeeee. wrote this yesterday with a sweet 15 min timer on right before I had to leave my studio to go see a show (wolf alice at the O2 arena, btw. they were incredible). TIME PRESSHAAAA!!!!
been thinking (always) about drums. how juicy it is when the drums and the bass sync up. how juicy it is when the drums and the bass contrast & pull apart from eachother (like in this idea.. sort of). the rhythm section are always having a conversation and how much or little they co-operate with one another dictates the backbone of any track or live performance. imo both bass & drums can often disappear into the background, like wallpaper.. but sometimes the best instrumentation does that; a part should support the song, not command to be listened to! you sure as hell notice when bass or drums don't feel right.. for me that's often more noticeable than when they're working just right.
life imitates artI love to write about guilt - I always will. blame my catholic upbringing
as always - your thoughts and feelings welcome below. love you dearly, SDC

lyrics:
see I contract to fill the space that you left me
call it a habit mmmmm
see I contract to fill the space that you left me
why do I do it ?
see next to you I always feel like the villain
call it a habit
give me a moment and a silence to fill in
why do I do it ?
hold a mirror to my face
all and nothing is the sameeee
as when I was yours
something about you
makes me feel guilty
it’s like a poison
and it kills me *(wanna change this to 'trying to kill me')
