demo 116: all this dreaming

hey SDC! here is your november demo : )

it's been a super up-and-down couple of weeks in my head so that's for sure distilled that in this demo. I've been pensive, all at once stuck in the past and hopeful for the future! this song is a classic tale of the aftermath of love lost and the stickiness that follows

you can download the mp3 here or stream within the patreon site or app (where u can also save offline)! as always thoughts are welcome below - some prompt ideas : do you like the sounds? can you relate to any lyrics or no? did listening evoke any feelings or memories?

as always - the hugest love to you all for your support! it has meant the world these last few months. you're truly keeping the lights on at OG HQ whilst I write and dream up the next era.

2 quick orders of business:

• gold tier patrons: your next live stream + zoom hang will be tuesday dec 2nd at 7:30pm UK time - please mark the date/time down if u can make it and I'll put the relevant links in a new post a few mins before the live stream!

• I'm going to try 'WRITE-SOMETHING-EVERY-DAY-IN-DECEMBER' (up + including dec 24th). for accountability I'll be posting everything I write (be that audio for a musical idea or text posts for ideas made up of words) here on patreon for you :)

I'd like to try this instead of 1 big December demo - spreading the creativity evenly across the month into many bitesize pieces, ending up with an ideas advent calendar of sorts. I've done this write-every-day challenge once or twice before and found the process of being less precious / 'running the tap' really useful. so that is my plan! WISH ME LUCK and we'll start on monday, dec 1st : )

love you always,

OG xxxx

lyrics:

your face will change

i’ll cut my long hair

not happy for you yet

but I think that I can get there

time is a trip

it carries all the healing

but it also gives me space

for all this dreaming

and I’ve honestly been

picturing the day

you cut the final cord

and I feel you falling away

the smoking area was packed

but I gotta say

could tell you didn’t really want me

in your space

it hurts bad

..grieving the very thing

that used to drive me mad    

see your attention was something

that I always had

can’t get it back

it’s all hers now

your face will change

i’ll cut my long hair

not happy for you yet

but I think that I can get there

time is a trip

it carries all the healing

but it also gives me space

for all this dreaming

is this what needs to happen?

to get me to the other side?

put your name on a napkin

some girl said throw it in a fire

is that what needs to happen?

is this the final stage of grief?

thinking of you with her really works in killing me

your face will change

i’ll cut my long hair

not happy for you yet

but I am certain I can get there

time is a trip

it carries all the healing

but it also gives me space

for all this dreaming
