Steemit Open Mic Week 69 - Bones (ORIGINAL SONG)

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

Thanks a whole bunch for putting this open mic on! I'm still a bit of a minnow so I found the support I got last week quite heartwarming <3 <3 <3 I decided to get up and play this one this morning because I got very little sleep last night, and it's mostly a song about losing sleep.

Lyrics:

It gets so cold under the night
So all your bones rattle in fright
And all your friends are out of sight
Because you don't know how to lie

I'll meet you there at the scene
With my bones bare and not a wink of sleep
I'll meet you there at the scene
With my bones bare and not a wink of sleep

Step out of your skin
Please don't leave me alone
We could begin
Ecstatic flesh and bone

I'll meet you there at the scene
With my bones bare and not a wink of sleep
I'll meet you there at the scene
With my bones bare and not a wink of sleep

I can never get no sleep
I can never get no sleep
I can never get no sleep
I can never get no sleep

I'll meet you there at the scene
With my bones bare and not a wink of sleep
I'll meet you there at the scene
With my bones bare and not a wink of sleep

I can never get no sleep
I can never get no sleep
I can never get no sleep
I can never get no sleep

Voice reminds me of Newton Faulkner, whilst watching this it hit me how beautiful a movement of the people open mic is. I keep watching these incredible performances from people all over the world just doing there thing and sharing from the heart. Good stuff man. Hope you get some good rest soon!

Man I can sure relate to this one. The good news is that a lot of songs come from sleepless nights, at least for me. Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks a lot :) I find that most of my writings after 11pm can only be improved with fire but I've held on to this song for a few years!

Wow! I hope I can get some sleep haha!. Nice rendition. It's your original song and I thought you'll show us your lyrics so I can sing along more easily haha. Good job man.

Thanks very much for your kindness :) I've updated the post with the lyrics - I'll do that from now on!

Cool...

Awesome cover dude! Your voice sounds sooo familiar to me. I can't put my finger on it, but is sounds just like someone.....it's gonna drive me crazy until I figure it out lol. Anyways, great job with that original song. I wish I was creative enough to write my own music, but I typically only do cover songs on my channel.

Thanks! It's an original song. You just need to jump in and do it! I tend to think of a nice line when I'm walking down the street and write a song around that! :)

good post, I left you a vote, I invite you to review my last openmic post
