Miser

Indie Rock Alternative New Wave Metal Multi Instrumentalist whatever

Miser is a project I do 100% on my own. The only instrument I don't physically play is the drums. The drums you hear on these songs are real. I get them from a great guy in New York named Chris Donlan at a company called www.betamonkeymusic.com. check them out, the drum loops are great. listen to these songs to see for yourself. The music varies because my tastes vary. I listen to just about everything there is and it all influences me one way or another. hopefully it comes through in a natural sounding way. I also play in a a few bands. &

Story behind the song

Idea came from a real experience coming home from a friends house. Second verse incorporates a fictional story and so on. Vocals in first bridge are meant to be the girls voice of course.

Lyrics

I went home late wednesday morning
driving through the rain
nodded off behind the wheel
and woke up in the next lane
what was i thinking?
how could i be sleeping?
where was my head at?
...oh I know!

i met her on a sunday morning
she opened up my world
when i asked why she was smiling
she turned to me and said

     "do you know what it's like to be unsatisfied?           
      do you know what it means to run and hide?
do you ever dream of space and of being alone?
do you know where your life will be....when you're gone?"

i watched her step onto the bus
and make her way downtown
as i watched her go
i thought of things i should say

yes i know what it's like to be unsatisfied
and i know what it means to run and hide
and i dream of floating in space and of being alone
i often wonder where my life will be when i'm gone
