Lulutoons

Made this relatively short song relating to the struggles and comforts of a shy introvert. This time, I tried to imitate a Bossa Nova style, but in the end it sounded more like Taco's Tirade and the structure was like Halloween Night. I also got out of my comfort zone and recorded using a "Digital" guitar for the woodwinds, and that's why it feels delayed at times. Hopefully I can fix it with later song. I decided to make this for a passion project (I did album/song production), and yes, it was for the same class that made me rewrite Stuck In Place. Key: F Minor Tempo: 120 BPM SoundCloud Release: https://soundcloud.com/lulutoons/id-rather-stare Lyrics: Don't wanna go outside I don't wanna run, I wanna hide From the plague that's spreading far and wide Lurking around the streets tonight If I socialize A major problem will likely arise Will start a fight, but you don't realize Felt like a joke from your own eyes From the sight of the room It may seem like your doom My nerves are getting tense and I had enough It would be better if the lights remained off I'd rather stare And watch the time go past, but the demons are there Trying to make me watch the world Go through the terror that occurred [Instrumental Break] From the sight of the room It may seem like your doom My nerves are getting tense and I had enough It would be better if the lights remained off I'd rather stare And watch the time go past, but the demons are there Trying to make me watch the world Go through the terror that occurred
