It's been a few days, I'd say about 4 since I made my last track. I took a small break so my mind could refresh.
I have about another week to come up with 3/4 more songs.

Shit.

I shouldn't have waited so long to start creating them again. All I can do is put my head down and get to work. I've been texting Billie every now and then letting her know I'm making a new playlist for her tour. She's pretty dope and super understanding.

Today's dedicated to productivity and getting closer to finishing all of my music. I'm sitting on the couch in darkness, notebook on my knee and I'm chewing the end of my pen.
A sudden idea comes to mind and I start writing.

Do I know better than this?
You're a word that I can't forget
Though the thought rattles my brain
Will you fold, or will you remain?

If I don't get better than this man in my skin
If I don't get better than this man in my skin

If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?

Is it safer if we just say that we tried?
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?

As the sun waits to eclipse
And the taste teases my lips
I'm too tired to wrestle with it
Will we burn, or will we repent?

If I don't get better than this man in my skin
If I don't get better than this man in my skin

If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?

Is it safer if we just say that we tried?
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?

If I let go, would you hold on? Would we fly?
Is it safer if we just say that we tried?
Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death?

Are we laughing at the danger?
Are we dancing after death, you and I?

I decided that the name Dancing After Death would fit the song perfectly.
