demo no76: emotional punchbag / synth jam 1 (Patreon)

hey gang! just in the nick of time, she delivers. here is demo 76!

this month I got a new toy - my first ever big boy synth. it's a blue beast called a 'super 6' by a UK company called UDO (I've attached a pic, if any nerds wanna see it).

this demo was an opportunity to dive into the super 6 for the first time and I absolutely loved it - it was like I started playing it, blinked and 5 hours had passed. then I wrote a bunch of lyrics on top about being a pushover of a friend, totally unable to draw boundaries! classic.

as always, you can stream this song from the patreon site or iOS app, or download the mp3 for keepsies. I'd love to know what you think in the comments :) love you so much SDC! 

ps: a note for my gold patrons - I'm down in devon for the next week with truly rubbish internet, so I'll be giving you a date for your July live stream asap - it'll be week starting august 8th, most likely august 11th. confirmed date pending..

lyrics:

Took me a minute

To see the wood for the trees

Cut em all down

all that was left was me

Sugarcoating my words

So sickly sweet

Always walking around with eggshells underneath

It’s true

I said anything at all to

Please you

Now I’m tightening my jaw

To bite through

How lucky I should be

That you have chosen me

To be your

Emotional punchbag

Taking what you once had

I’ll soak it up baby!

Emotional punchbag

Your old mattress

Give me all your

Secondhand sadness

You’ve gone and done it

Now I’m all yours

To shape and mould and take and hold

to love and hurt

You’ve got no money

Come on take mine

Then we can be together all the time!

It’s true

I said anything at all to

Please you

Now I’m tightening my jaw

To bite through

How lucky I should be

That you have chosen me

To be your

Emotional punchbag

Taking what you once had

I’ll soak it up baby!

Emotional punchbag

Your old mattress

Give me all your

Secondhand sadness
