Heaven Waits For Me (Original /w Bluesberry!!)

[launched]

Hi everyone! I put this together over the last couple of days. Hacked cut and pasted with level and flaw issues, but overall I kind of like it! About 7 hours of production time.

Dave (Bluesberry) sent me a synth track that was awesome - Progtastic!! He used a Roland G-20 guitar synth hooked up to his Tele. I'll get more info on the gizmo later...

A darker tune, but light at the same time  

Lyrics:

Heaven Waits For Me

Life is easy
It can't escape me
I'm breathing fire
With burnin' desire

Stay in control
Of my dark coal black soul
What doesn't kill me
Just gets me higher


Ooh that thick wool
being pulled over my eyes
The man in control
Floods the skies

With dark intentions
And commonality
Being one not many
That's the prize



Heaven waits for me
That's what they say in church
While I die a long slow death
Here on earth

Lock your doors and windows
And keep the night light on
Draw one more final breath
Before you're gone



I'm drooling viper venom
But not one to paralyze
Just drink it slow and easy
No surprise


The chills set in
Blood flows thin
It's me again
I'm comin' in!


Ahhhh no one knows
When your time is gonna come
But it won't be you
Who says you're the one

The little key that opens
A door to your heart
Don't tell me you lost it
'Cause that's the hardest part

Peace, all!!

Hey great track, kinda Nirvana thing going on and a Doors sound on the keyboard, loved the track well done bluesberry and Launched.

[Bluesberry]

Nice, I really like the bass in this one, great playing.  Cool spooky lyrics.  Its a great song, thanks for inviting me have some fun and to lay down a organ solo for the middle.

Been waiting for this !!!!!!!!!!!

This is freakadelicious ..... if Bosko is prog-pop, this is prog-punk and I sure want a slice of both !!!!

LOVE IT  !!!

[Satchwood]

This is great guys ! - ! a little "doors keys" - great vox - cool backing vox too !!!

[Vanncad]

Hey, this is pretty cool guys. I'm not much of a synth person, but this sounds pretty neat. Good going BB! You're quite the multi-faceted musician!

Thanks for posting the lyrics Mark. Very cool. I like to read along while I'm listening.

Great collab!

Dark, yet fun!? Well produced. Did you use the harmonizer on the back?

[launched]

Thanks for the supportive comments everyone!

And Dave - I appreciate you giving me a hand with the cool synth solo work on such short notice. Great job!!

Glenn - The backing vox were done the old fashioned way. I used six separate tracks total for the chorus sections. I'm dying to get one of those Harmony G's, though!!

Peace,

Mark
