Hey, I am Bone Angel, and I do what is probably best described as Alt-Folk. I'm a one man production (like Nine Inch Nails) and mostly its just me and my guitar and occasionally some other instruments. More of a songwriter, but I thought I'd post this stuff up to see if it's any good. I'm still working on the technical aspects of my music, so I apologize in advance if they aren't the best mp3s.

Lyrics
Ready to Go W. Morgan He’s made his decision tonight will be the night It only takes a few cuts, he’s sure to do it right He’s made his preparations, told everyone goodbye He’s made sure not to make plans, and no one’s coming by. He’s ready to go, he won’t last another day. What’s the point of living, when living’s only pain. He figures fifteen minutes, before he passes out It should be like sleeping, but with his blood pouring out He goes into the bathroom, sits down in the tub He wants to be considerate, since he won’t be cleaning up Hook He starts the water running, listens to the sound Warm blood flows out quicker, and he doesn’t want to hang around He gets out the razor, sharpened just today Accidentally nicks his finger, and winces at the pain. Hook He’s quick decisions, a leg first or the arm Decides it doesn’t matter, calms his pounding heart The knife goes in the water, and cuts into his leg He didn’t thing it’d hurt so much, and he screams out in pain Hook The water’s turning pink now, he begins to feel afraid That makes him more determined and he opens another vien Heartbeat starts to weaken, vision starts to fade Then something happens in the dark core of his brain. Hook His will to live takes over; he finds he’s changed his mind Crawls out of the bathtub, he’s running out of life He’s crawling to the phone now, he wants to be saved. The blood smears on the carpet, a dark and holy paint. Hook He’s made it to the phone, he’s dialing 911 The operator answers, but by now he’s numb He wheezes and he sputters, the blood runs out in streams The tears are running down his face, as he tries to scream. Hook (x2)
