We do this thing off and on where one of us will pick a song title and we each have to write a song with that as the title. Well I was busy that night so I declined. He coerced me by saying it'll only take an hour. We each have one hour to compose, write and record a song from scratch with the title of "Fumes". I was still a little unsure of how I would pull anything decent out of my ass in that short of time, but I was fueled by the emotions of the day that text happen to come on so I went to work. This is what I came up with in an hour.  Robbie Wilson - Fumes.mp3Lyrics: Fumes Can't you feel the void today The fire has all now gone away I find myself almost choking Respiration starts to cease But if I took a breath it would surely mean death For fumes are all I could breath Fumes are all you leave Can't you feel the loss today 18 years all now thrown away I find myself almost crying But my tears refuse to be seen But if I shed a tear, it's not for you my dear For fumes are all I receive Fumes are all that you leave Can't you feel the fear today 2/23 is almost history I find myself down and aching But not for reasons you'd think For my selfish ways are now passed by days And the fumes are all that remain For fumes are all you display For fumes are all you display
Date: 01.20.2009 Category: Music Title: Christmas/Being honest So... I set up this site as a place where I can be honest. With MySpace it is hard to get on there and 'blog' because you know that it is going to send out a notification that you put something new up. So you start out totally honest and then start editing it down from there until it is as far (emotionally) from what you initially wanted to post as possible. I mean, the last thing that we want is for others to know we feel, right? So this site was to be different. What ever I am thinking or feeling I can let it all fly because, in my head, no one will know that I posted something. So here it goes. Christmas Eve, 2008 was the worst pain that I have ever felt. My wife and I separated in September. This was hard for me, but it was the best thing for her. She is a wonderful person and from the day I met her feared that she was destine for someone other than me. I came home from X-mas Eve festivities at a family members house and it hit me. I would not wake up in the morning and be with my kids. This killed me. So at 2:00 am I set up a mic and wrote and recorded this song. It is not the best recording and is very sloppy in parts. I thought that it didn't do what I was feeling justice because the quality was poor. I re-recorded it better quality but shorter, but scrapped it. I thought about redoing it in Austin with Rob so I can put live drums to it but that never happened. I started programming drums for it to re-record it again here but I realized something... imperfections and all, nothing could ever match what I recorded on that Christmas Eve.
