Just playing around late at night and composed & performed this on the spot in a couple hours. Experimenting a bit with singing in the lower part of my range. A bit of an 80s feel.

Art rock and folk singer songwriter Tim Gallant.
I'm primarily a songwriter - I've written roughly one thousand songs since about age 12. I listed myself as folk, but in truth I do a broad variety of stuff - quasi-prog, folk, rock, and too-difficult to classify. My major project I'm currently working on is called Metanarrative, and incorporates folk, quasi-classical, semi-Gregorian, art rock and more. The important thing to me is not genre, but beauty. Good melody, pleasing vocals (often with lush harmonies), musical balance. And thoughtful, artful lyrics.

Story behind the song
Just playing around. Trying to see what would happen if I tried not to be too loud late at night by singing lower than I usually do. Then overdubbed some soft high stuff to fill it out. Not a serious composition.
Lyrics
Grab your bags Pack your things (Put your suitcase by the door Drop my love on the floor) Making rags of our dreams (Of our lives Cut my soul down to size) If this is the world you dream of Not like my pride to stand aside It's not my way, this giving way But baby please Don't be surprised If I must look away While you throw Our happiness Away Is this the world you dream of Is this the life you wanted Is this the times that we have Fallen down See my mind breaking down See my tears falling down I always wanted to be there for you (But I can't hold you back) I always wanted To know you'd be there too Now I know, now I see You will not be You will not be You will not be But I can't hold you back Maybe I'll see you in another world....
