Inspired by artists like Elliott Smith, Nick Drake, and Beck ... I started fiddling around with a microphone, acoustic guitar, and discovered how much I enjoy making personal music that reveals my deepest emotions. Creating music has become a therapeutic device for me as I capture a mood on my guitar and then start recording as I sing whatever comes to mind, allowing the melody and words to be "of the moment" and completely spontaneous.

A writer by profession, I love the freedom of not putting the lyrics on paper and simply allowing my heart to talk and say whatever it feels without censoring. And the end result is the songs I've created and now look back on to discover more about myself based on what I say through improvisational singing.

"Drifting Away" by Graydon Smith is an Acoustic Rock production available on SoundClick. The sound is shaped by acoustic, giving the song its signature feel. A solid entry in the acoustic rock space, crafted with care and intention. Fans of Death Cab For Cutie, Beck and Elliott Smith will find "Drifting Away" worth adding to their playlist via SoundClick.

Lyrics
Where are you going? Another game we're playing Don't tell anyone my secret Keep it Keep the place, I'm running Go away forever Get down and fall I'm dizzy, and forget all about it Ohhh, yaaa Quiet acting dumb how can you love me when I'm starving? Got you here ...but I'm cold, and I'm dying, and I need you Right beside me ....but I'm silent, and she is too, and we're always drifting away You think it's funny? Or are you starting to cry? I'm so confused and messed up inside Just hold me Warmly embrace me Keep doing it right Got you here ...but I'm cold, and I'm dying, and I need you Right beside me ....but I'm silent, and she is too, and we're always drifting away
