A little bluesish but no blues pattern. Just the guitar and the voice. There should be some percussion, but there isn't. Written November 2004.
It can be an addiction to be near a woman you are falling for, paired with the fear of just ending up in the "friend zone". When you try not to call her, and then when you almost are over her, she calls. But stays vague... Best to kill time then by writing a weird song. I got the girl in the end, but later she went back to being a pill for someone new. There must be something in that, too ;) Well, I still got the song - it's mine.
This song has ne percussion, because I think it has an invisible beat that workd best when running in the listeners head only (if that makes any sense). This song should be played by one person, I guess.
lyrics
This pill has a force on me
I don't know how she makes me
but of this I need some more
And to make it all worse on me
I'm sleeping with my cloths on
She's the only thing I believe in
This pill has a force on me
The moment that she hangs up
the phone I'm falling down
And to make it all worse on me
I'm sleeping with my cloths on
She's the only thing I believe in
And to make it all worse on me - I will never say the word
'cause then I might know how all of this is wrong
And to make it all worse on me - I don't want to say the word
cause it feels so good I can't let go my pill
This pill has a force on me
those goodbyes are all heartbreaks
too short to live upon
And to make it all worse on me
I'm sleeping with my cloths on
She's the only thing I believe in
I've seen this guy develop into a very productive web-songwriter during the last two years, after I had noticed him on Soundcloud. A great example of creative flow, really got into liking the voices. Nic Honey
