The bewildered feeling when you fall asleep on the couch and didn't make it to your bed. You wake up with the TV and all the lights on, Skype messages bleeping(booowhip!), all your change in the cushions and possibly the oven being preheated to 350 for several hours.

It's rough, sang and played at the same time with a harmony and cheesy noodle overdub.

Lyrics:



Died on the Couch

Ain't no reason
To turn it out
Ain't no need
To talk about

When you just sit there
With a loaded stare
When letting in wants letting out


He died on the couch
He didn't make a sound
When you're mind grows dim
You don't make a sound


You don't know me
Like I know you
'Cause I draw pictures
In the sand

And please don't laugh at me
Cause it's not alright
And please don't ask me to understand


He died on the couch
He didn't make a sound
When you're mind grows dim
You don't make a sound





Peace,

Mark

Nothing rough about this Mark, that vocal is smooth as.

Love the live feel of this, it really suits the song perfectly.

Great song Mark!

Harmonies are right on and your new acoustic sounds good too. Can't wait to hear what else comes out of that thang.

Thanks for posting the lyrics (and the explanation). That's pretty cool.
It ain't pretty being easy.

Cool ass song Mark. I love the lyrics and concept of the song. Been there done that, and never thought of writing a song about it!

Singing and playing at the same time? You'll be doing Open Mic night by August.... Tharek?

So this is what the naked Mark sounds like, damn man this is most incredible.  Your vocals are really good, great guitar strum.  You are a great songwriter Mark, it just pours from you.
