this is my attempt at making a romantic hit song; written as if I was singing to myself. I played a miniature classical guitar, gifted to me by matt jenkins. the guitar playing is pretty sloppy, but I didn't want to do it again for some reason. I like the desperate sound of it.
lyrics
stay calm. you found out there are photos of a night she was out and you've been holding your breath to see one; to see anything. it's been torture not to see her face and the smile you put on her. you're trying again to make it last forever; making it harder than it has to be, like you always do. be cool. it's okay if she forgets to call you. you've got plenty to do and endless distractions. you've got everything but it kills you not to see her face and the smile you put on her. you're trying again to make it last forever; making it harder than it has to be, like you always do. you knew you could do it. you knew you can do it. you knew you'll see it through now.
