Echoes Demo (co-written with Alkali Bismuth) (Patreon)

GUESS WHAT I'm doing original music. This ended up sounding very David Lynch soundtrack and that's appropriate. I like his stuff a lot and it's sad that he passed this week.I'm announcing an upcoming short album:Songs to Pay for my PoolI've been forced into major repairs on my pool, and this is the scheme to pay for some of it. The song contains more details.Lyrics:D

Rent was tough and we'd had enough, so we

    Bm

thought we'd buy a place

Had a pool so it wasn't cool, but we

checked it just in case

G

Covid came made the big decision

A

and so we bought it. From that day on it was

F#m E G A

us paying for chlorine. livin’ like a queen

Couple years on, and we believe all the

greenery out backhas to do with our swimming pool and it's

big ass fucking crack never wanted it in the first place, the

bills are stacking up at a fast paceAnd plus it's a diving pool,

can't dig those any more due to zoning rules

Chorus:

Em A7

 I'm putting up with myself,

       F#m B7

you’re putting up with me and darling I

  Em A Gm D

maybe I only put this to tape to pay for my pool

Had to fix this apocalyptic

attack on my back account

Major repairs from deck to pool stairs a

cost I can't surmount,

Solved my problem, you bought my album,

but life goes on when I'm eatin ramen,

and paying for this PebbleTec, a financial wreck

Chorus

G A D A Bm D/A

I Say Your name Under the waves it echoes ohit's a shame that I’ve gone too far oh to make it

 (repeat and fade)

In the united states an average of 3 to 4 thousand people every day are drowning in their pools which averages to about 10 deaths a day. And if I die here it might as well be as well be in this 18000 dollar sarcophagus. and that's only talking retexturing and retiling. we wouldn't even be doing this if it didn't mean risking the complete collapse of our yard and we all knows what that would do to property value.
