PG Music Home Forums General Discussion User Showcase OUT OF TOUCH_David Snyder

Well, I honestly have no idea what I was doing or thinking on this or even what genre it is, if it even has one. It kind of happened when I was working on Sinful Savior with Ron and we were asking the rhetorical question: can drums and bass ever be too loud?

So for this thing, I shoved the bass and the drums all the way up, because while I was researching and studying some mastering references, the drums and bass are always WAY UP. I have thus decided to focus on a few songs now where the bass and drums will be a lot more prominent. So I guess I am on a another journey.

Have no idea what to think of this, but decided to post it anyway. What the heck. At least it is loud.

OUT OF TOUCH

V1

I’m wanna fly but I’m stuck on the ground
Pushing through the crowd I don't make a sound
Music in my head that I can’t hear
Dreams I wanna see but they’re not very clear
Standing right here nothing in my hands
Who said this was the promised land

CH

When everything I want
Everything I need
Seems so out of reach
And why do I feel
So unreal
Like every emotion
I have to steal
Penny for your thoughts
I don’t ask much
Just tell me why
I feel so out of touch

V2

I want to run but I'm stuck at the door
Punching at this wall like I’ve done before
Lies in my head that won't go away
I'm trying to talk but I’ve nothing to say
Screaming for you but it's just too late
Who in the world could live this way

CH

When everything I want
Everything I need
Seems so out of reach
And why do I feel
So unreal
Like every emotion
I have to steal
Penny for your thoughts
I don’t ask much
Just tell me why
I feel so out of touch

Bridge:

Maybe I was born after my time
I don’t see any mountains that I want to climb
I’m not afraid of losing my soul
But baby, I don’t want to lose my mind
No don’t make me lose my mind

CH

Cause everything I want
Everything I need
Seems so out of reach
And why do I feel
So unreal
Like every emotion
I have to steal
Penny for your thoughts
I don’t ask much
Just tell me why
Just tell me why
I feel so out of touch
