solo project, rick waters

This is a solo project by me, Rick Waters. I play all the instruments, which include guitars, bass, elec. and acoustic violins, keyboard, mandolin, dijembes, and sometimes vocals. I am currently doing this to work on a sort of "resume" so that I may one day become a record producer... Please show your support. Nothing makes me happier than to hear a person comment on my music.

Story behind the song

All the times I made the right choice not to hit the snooze and instead, go to class

Lyrics

(Verse 1)

Far away...
gather on an escapade,
blink twice,
there's an open field.

Sudden flash...
I'm diving head first,
close my eyes,
cool rush of silk.

(Bridge)

I can see why I'd stay here;
in a world that's not so crystal clear.

Voices ask me to wait here;
I see but i can not say...

(Chorus)

This is why i wake up;
something here is better for me.

This is why i wake up;
the virtues of a life, that you can't see.

(Verse 2)

Sudden warmth...
crisp blue horizon,
violent shake,
it all turns to black.

Open eyes...
you stare back at me,
morning at last,
i lie here and wait.

(Bridge)

(Chorus)

(Solo)

(Chorus)
