Acoustic guitar, erhu (a bowed instrument), slight auto wah wah. And my vocals. Kind of a mellow, dark song. A little folk influenced too. This is a remix, changed the guitar.

I am very much back after a 20 year period, have a deformed left hand & severe nerve, tendon & muscle damage in right arm. I used all kinds of weird tunings.

Story behind the song

More of an allegory than anything. About leaving a place and coming back, when the environment improves.

Lyrics

Going Away

Today I will go away
To find a better space 
No longer does love find me
In this dark, gloomy place

I wonder where this will end
These grim and lonely days
It's darker and colder and lonely
The path's many twists and turns

I must go onward 
I'm on this trip alone
I feel no love around me
I find no warmth at all
Only the pale darkness, frozen

Not sure if I am right
Venturing down this long road
Is this all worth the trip?
Or is this all in vain? 

You can wish me well
You can wave goodbye
I will be back someday
When the skies aren't so gray
And I find truth and love

With sadness, I go away
When the springtime arrives
I shall return some day
And I hope to find her love
Not going away...
