"You're All Around Me" a FuzzFace original

[FuzzFace]

I put more hours into this one than it's worth.

I wish someone else would sing it.
It's riddled with rhythm issues.

Yet somehow I am proud of it.
Sort of picking up on a theme established in my last post, both musically and lyrically:

It needs a better title.

You're All Around Me

I was not among those
who cried
the emperor has no clothes
I believed
(I still believe)

The lights and the colours of this city are deceiving
but they were never meant to be
to be believed
They're meant to be seen
(To replace the night)

Will I ever
awake from this dream?
Were you sent by an angel
to awaken me
or are you
the very best part of this fantasy?

   You surround me
   You're all around me

Mirrors are frightening
fill the room to the brim
with all that we bring

Windows are scary
inviting us out
into brave new worlds

What you and I have seen is incomparable
Can we be
spiritual kin?

Though I try
I cannot part the waters
with what I've been given
by our mothers and fathers

With a little touch
of divinity
together we're inspired
to push ourselves higher

   You surround me
   You're all around me



Thanks for listening.
Enjoy!

Love it! has a sort of Fugazi/Breeders/Sonic Youth vibe to it, and that is only ever gonna be a good thing...

Excellent tune!!!

I think it's one of your best ...  The  lyrics and vocals are perfect.

Your rhythm is excellent as usual and I really like the tones and
when all the different guitars come in and build and build.

I really dig your unique style!!!

Agree with the others here, this is a very cool song. Really enjyed the "chugging" bass and the razor-sharp guitars. And theres definitively nothing wrong with the vox
