okay. So i’ve been getting some flack about putting my musical wishlist online.

You people. don’t you get it? can’t i be temporarily fixated on some sort of material wealth that is out of my financial purchasing power? i mean, come on! i’m only nineteen! gimme a break! and PLUS it’s a wishlist.

anyways.

here’s the new song i’ve been working on. I decided to release it today because, well, it’s time to get things done around here.

25 Days (2.2MB mp3)

The lyrics are down below, in the “Continue Reading” part. Please excuse my horrible vocals. the song really isn’t quite in my range, which is retarded, because i wrote it for myself to sing, but thats just too bad. for your information, it’s the very first song with lyrics that i ever wrote, and to be totally honest, it’s a bit amateurish. But it worked out, because i was going for the whole “early-Beatles” feel.

Look for a better version on the future. (editor’s note: although i tell you to keep your ears open for some unknown “better” version that will supposedly spontaneously appear on my website at an undisclosed future time, i actually have little motivation to do very much to improve the recording, given the fact that i’m already posting on my website. In other words, it ain’t perfect, and if it really mattered, i would redo it, but here it is in all of its half-way-there glory.)

25 Days
we broke it off, just like that
i didn’t know you wanted to dump me at the drop of a hat
i wasnt ready
to see you go

i loved you so much, and my heart turned dead cold
when you told me to leave you alone, hot damn
i didn’t know
you’d treat me so low

so i said baby, baby, baby, baby,
i love you so much
but this is just too much
you hurt me
didn’t you know that you’d hurt me.

all i wanted was you
all i needed was you
but what you gave me was
useless, to heal a broken heart
and i was right back where i started

sometimes i just want you to make it right
either tell me you love me or get out of my sight
i couldn’t have guessed
that i’d be in this mess

on my knees before you, after 25 days,
going to say to you babe, i’m done a-runnin’ this race
and then you kissed me
and said “i won’t throw you away”
