Moving On

A song for DroneFest. The title was a GYAWS prompt: "moving on."  (GYAWS is the get your ass writing songs facebook group.) The drones are on the bass and the guitar. Open A through-out most of the song.

You let the opinions of others control you
You live in the shame of all your past failurs
You're indecisive about what you want
You procrastinate on all of your goals

You sit back choosing to do nothing
You alwasy need to be right
You're always running from all of your problems
Making excuses instead of decisions

Moving On
Moving On

You overlook all of the positive
You don't appreciate living in the now
You set yourself goals and promptly forget them
You make excuses, say you don't know how

Your comfort is more important than growing
You're constantly living in your past
You're always running from all of your problmes
Hiding frmo choices that arrive too fast

Moving On
The choice to be happy is yours to make
Moving on
You've got to want the changes to take place
Moving On
The choice to be happy is yours to make
Moving on
You've got to want the changes to take place

Nice change of pace for you vocally, T.C. - goes well with the drone. The verse pacing seems familiar, but I can't put my finger on it? I dig the chorus, too - especially how it stands out from the verses. Nice guitar work, too - I like the mix of acoustic and electric.

That intro is a smoker and the vocals in the chorus
remind me a bit of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.

The music is very well done. excellent digression from verse to chorus.

Awesome piece of work.

Real cool drone stuff, well executed and produced! Nice job on lyric, as well! Remind me of Beck on some spots!

[steelguitar]

Cool stuff!

Well performed, produced, the talk-singing style is very well made
Great guitars!

Great song with a lot of attitude, the contrasts make it really interesting.

[Satchwood]

I enjoyed this tune!  a bit different from your norm, and it kept my interest!!

Great take on the drone, I dig that groove brother!
Rock On!

The drones cool, but the verse vox are the killer, excellent lyric too, magic!!

Good stuff TC, sounds to me like your getting to grips with that new amp. Love the lyrics by the way.  Willie
