I put some new strings on the Gibson and changed the battery and this time i plugged it into the kemper using a Fishman Artist (Acoustic) then gave it a good strum to break the strings in then added these words it all seemed to come at once so pressed the red button and caught it all the guitar first then the stream of lyrics for the vocal.....i think Reg is a little lost 
Drifting to the center
Parting ways
Thumbing my way through another day
Got nothing left to give
Got nothing left in my mind to do
Oh
You look at me with those sunken eyes
Expecting me to know the reason why

Everyones looking
but no ones seeing
Everyones wanting
when you do is need
Its not sad
Its not new
Its just the way its for you
You got shaken down
now you don't know what to do
Theres something screaming in your heart you just can't seem to let go

Tomorrow sings to you
It sings out loud
It tells you the dream is true
Its telling you now
You close your eyes and dream
You close your eyes and dream tomorrow will come
But there is no promise
No promise tomorrow will come

You have an anger
buried deep
You scream you're not a sheep

An individual with nowhere to go
Running around in circles
Cause you don't really know
Who you are or what you want
What it is you want to do
Your Drifting to the center
Parting ways
Thumbing your way through another day

You've Got nothing left to give
Got nothing left in my mind to do
You look at me with those sunken eyes
Expecting me to know what to do

Do do do ........

I can tell you now I havent really got a clue what we've got to do
Were on this long dark road
Theres no signs
The clouds won't part
The sun won't shine
I'm drifting to the center.
Running out of time
Do do
What is it we are mean't to do
   
If Life is a dream then use your imagination

Excellent acoustic sound and strumming Regs! The vocal tone is a bit thinner than your normal style but it fits this singer songwriter vibe to a tee. I absoulutely enjoyed it...well played!

Those things we take for granted - when we're young and immature - will surely return to haunt us when we're old and insecure

You do some excellent acoustic/vocal tracks, vocals and guitars always sound awesome, this is no exception, excellent track and sound vocal and guitars, would be interesting what you can do with a full band sound it would really work on songs like this, love the guitar and style . this is great.

Yeah I feel a bit like Reg today so I can feel his pain. This is tight, some super rhythm playing and the guitar sounds great. Love the wee bit of reverb.
