Original song in 4/4 for voice, ukulele, clarinet, tenor sax, chimes, synth, piano, cello, double bass, and drumset.
Been working on this for a long time and I hit 600 followers on Tumblr so this is my celebration I guess! I recorded basic vocals w/ minor editing for this, so it is certainly not perfect. This will likely change when I start fully producing it. And and!!! planning on editing a bts of the recording session and put it on youtube, so watch out for that.

Lyrics and taglists below the cut:
Close my eyes
Fly away and disappear
‘Cause it’s three AM and freezing
And I wanna be so far from here
So it doesn’t matter where or when
It doesn’t matter why or who or how
I need to live, to breathe,
Just let me hate to want to love to leave
So I close my eyes
Ooo, and visualize, I
I left the summer window open
In flew the bees
‘Cause that’s the consequence
When you are careless with the weeds
And your cozy little habitat
With quite the chilly thermostat
Is knocked flat
By buzzing and a breeze
Say bye to all you’ve crystallized
Your chilly house and chilly lies
Your coldest lips and colder eyes
Shoot daggers at me but I don’t care
I’m elsewhere witnessing the temperature rise
And I’m flattered, really, I am,
That you’d waste your precious words on me
On Saturday at three AM
I’m drowning you in symphonies
But only in my head,
In my head
I left the summer breeze an entrance
Into our home
‘Cause that’s the consequence
When you are always on your fucking own
Slips past your walls and pastel blinds
Passe decor and plastic chimes
Your paradigms
And everything is thrown
Up to down and hot to cold
And black to white and new to old
“What’s,” you scream and shout and scold
“The matter with you?” But I don’t care
I’m elsewhere watching all the chaos unfold
And I’m sorry, truly, I am,
That you’ve never felt the warmth for long
But it’s hard enough at three AM
To drown out your voice with my loudest songs
‘Cause you’re in my head,
In my head
Yes, I guess, sure, why not,
You’re the best, I forgot,
No, I’m fine, no I’d never lie
Yesterday I was distressed
I’m sure you won’t widen the knot
Immuring me then what’s the best thing?
Idling for good? But god I
Know you don’t know I’m not
Fine and you don’t know I’d
Never lie again
Close my eyes
Fly away and disappear
‘Cause it’s three AM and freezing
And I wanna be so far from here.
