"Loneliness (is a creepy friend)" a Geir original

[Geir]

Sometimes solitude can be tempting ...... but not in the long run ....

Loneliness (is a creepy friend)

w/m: Geir
Recorded on MBR80
Piano (garageband "Classic Grand" played with Roland D10 through Edirol UM-X1 and iPad camera connection kit)
Vocals through built in mics.

Loneliness is a creepy friend
and he'll stab you in the back
When you're trying to leave

Solitude is a friend that you should
keep a mile away
don't let him in

if you hold them to tight
you will loose your mind

alienated and withdrawn
you can have your peace and quiet
but that's not what you want

without a root without a branch
you will wither and you'll fade
you'll turn to mold

but if you reach out
and you open your door
things can change

Loneliness is a creepy friend
and he'll stab you in the back
When you're trying to leave

alienated and withdrawn
you can have your peace and quiet
but that's not what you want

You've got a very atmospheric voice which you put to good use and I liked where you took the melody. Can't help feeling I'm underachieving with my ipad though!

I really liked this, Geir: it's intimate without being obvious, and the spare piano matches the mood of the lyrics perfectly. You're definitely on fire with your iPad...keep 'em coming!

That is one good song.  Great lyrics, emotion, tune, sound.  It's speaking to me.  It's talking to my soul.  It's teaching me.  It's trying to point me in the right direction, but I'm fighting.  I'm fighting hard.  

Thanks for sharing this.  I look forward to hearing more.

[Lounging McCoy]

It sounds like you're channeling your inner Tom Waits.  Nice job on the song.

[The Gobi Desert Canoe Club]

Hi Geir, what a great piece of songwriting and I'm not sure that I've ever heard your voice sound better.
