I'm getting Devoto vibes here.

Very off-kilter. That guitar tone is unnerving. Excellent!

Original Songs / The Factory

Last post by thetworegs - May 06, 2024, 11:05:47 AM

you have to imagine yourself as a young eighteen year old Reg with a 100 percent mortgage (You wouldn't get one of those now) and a loan for his Triumph Bonneville (I loved that bike) working at the brick company making bricks working on a belt setting 15000 bricks a day two at a time ready for the kiln and he's not happy he wants out he feels old before his time ..he is the bad machine ..but how...how can he get out

Well I fell at the first hurdle my head it hit the floor
I'm not really sure I'm ready
I can take any more
Each day is a mess
everything turns black
I've got that feeling in my heart it is going to crack
Each day seems the same and they turn pretty slow
I can't take another day in this factory
I'm gonna blow
I'm gonna blow

Ive got to escape
I don't know how
But I've got to find a way out this place I got to find it now  I got to gonow

Life is a scream exploding in my mind
I've started turning nasty
I am unkind
I'm viscious with my tounge
I'm viscious with my fists
I'm drinking way too much 
I feel like shit
I've got to get away
I don't know how
I got to get away from this place
I'm ready right now

Break

I'd been a fool for way too long
education I saw as a waste of time
I was too busy being cool to give it any time
I couldn't see or I wasn't told
it was a ticket to the big time
So now here I am with presses
banging out my time
Pushing out there produce and me into the ground
Ive gotta get out of this place
I've gotta get now
I I gotta escape
But I don't know how
I've gotta find a way before it pushes me to the ground
I got to go
I got to go

The bass tone and playing is excellent Trevor. It seems the new Tonex pedal has inspired you in a good way. Cool lyrics and vocal...well done!

"I got the two chord blues...oops three chord blues", lol. I hope that was meant to be funny because I found the third chord slip hilarious. If not I apologize...I'm still smiling. Well done Hilary!

Hi everyone - I'm still listening pretty much every day but not really writing songs atm - although writing poetry and painting.

This is a little bit of nonsense just to let you know I'm still here!

The Two Chord Blues

Finally a Fest I can participate in
A 2 chord song is what I've been waiting for

The two chord blues
