demo no 99 (!) : you gotta laugh (or otherwise you'll cry) (Patreon)

wow lads.. getting close to the big demo number !

hey SDC. I hope you're all getting on ok and having a wonderful summery time :) I've been bowled over by the response to releasing 'mine' the last few weeks and at OG HQ we are going all guns blazing getting ready for the next single & the ALBUM ANNOUNCE !!!!! ARHGGHGHG

but you really can't have it aalll at once and in the rest of life I'm having a pretty strange time, so it will come as no surprise that your demo no99 is a SAD PIANO SONG. it's been a looong time since I've written on piano and I really love it.. I feel like it's soo not my instrument and I love that I can play something quite basic and still be surprised by it?

lyrics below.. if you're new here just a note that you can stream the track within the Patreon site or mobile app (can save offline on mobile app too) and/or download the mp3 for keepsies.

as always please do let me know what u think of the song! : )

ooh - and sidenote for any guitarists - I uploaded a video and chord sheet for 'mine' yesterday, if you'd like to learn it.

LOVE U!

lyrics:

oh it’s true

i pictured my whole life with you

so tell me if that isn’t true

then what is?

oh it’s true

i pictured my whole life with you

so tell me if that isn’t true

then what is?

I deserve a little bit of time

time to try to re-align

to work it out

no promises

couldn’t give any even if I wanted to

cut off like a punchline

put off at the worst time

you gotta laugh (cause otherwise you’ll cry)

I admit

although you did what you did

now I know what i’m dealing with

at least there’s that?

so unreal

to ever say how I should feel

or how long that i’ve got to heal

I deserve a little bit of time

to think about my whole life

and whether I can picture it without you

no promises

couldn’t give any even if I wanted to

buckle up for the long haul

days watching the clock crawl

you gotta laugh (cause otherwise you’ll cry)

you gotta laugh (cause otherwise you’ll cry)
