A blend of funky beats with a dark tinge of Goth, perhaps. Darkly beautiful, energetic, an exploration of abusive love and perhaps just a slightly masochistic sense of loss that it is gone.

Story behind the song
The lyrics began with a poem about a girl I knew in college, a lovely little sprite who had me wrapped around her finger, and new it. Nothing good ever comes from "puppy love".
Lyrics
Weightless Autumn Gems
BugTheRoot©2013
The sound of playful falling and dust on balanced winds
Of leaves sailing endlessly as weightless autumn gems
Cascades of cleansing sunlight that wash through her hair
While wafts of soulful dancing perfume her lusty airs
Gentleness and melancholy spice her slender limbs
Her smile awaits the dark and cold that old man winter sends
While shards of sprinkled laughter splinter, Flash and fly
Scatter in her movements and sparkle in her eyes
Green is her color and she wades in southing beige
A caress of gentle amber where in solitude in bathes
Fertility and courage succulence and innocence
Insanity, tranquility, this she meant to me
Chorus
Suddenly I’m falling the leaves and I are one
And we dance we dance around words unspoken
Beneath a tarnished autumn sun
Echoes of our laughter fade as she slips away
And we’re wrapped up in the cold of shadows
That grew longer with each passing day
The lovely banshee’s calling to lure the careless in
And leaves her victim breathless and tainted with her sin
She takes my hand and holds it tight I’m a fool to think she cares
These poisonous romances are just treacherous affairs
Emotion would be folly it’s best to just pretend
Her smile’s the Siren’s beauty that leads to tragic ends
Chorus
Suddenly I’m falling the leaves and I are one
And we dance we dance around words unspoken
Beneath a tarnished autumn sun
Echoes of our laughter fade as she slips away
And we’re wrapped up wrapped up in the cold of shadows
That grew longer with each passing day
And now the sky is sullen
And all the leaves have fallen
Shaken down from the family tree
Leaving naked limbs and bitter questions
Seeking truth of her intentions
Better to just kill the memory
And life has dealt a dirty hand
That spreads a chill across the land
I cannot stay and it’s too late to flee
And I’m left here with platitudes
To make the best of solitude
And jokes to hide the misery
