I've been away from the LMF for awhile but I wanted to share this song today since those of us in the US have an election happening.
Hope You've Given Up
I wrote it over four years ago before the current president was nominated, but I think it makes a little more sense with the passage of time. The music is not great but I was proud of making up the word "xenomegaphonia", sort of a portmanteau of xenophobia and loudmouth.
Cheers all.
You caught it anyway, despite your attempts
At being better than anyone at building a fence
Now your xenomegaphonia has tied you up
And all the air inside the room has given up
And gone back up to the stars
Now you’re the disease that you sought to serve
Everyone is running from you and your boomerang curve
Sitting on a lawn chair, dreaming of god
All the air inside your heart has given up
And gone back up to the stars
Hope you’ve given up
Have you given up?

Whatever! Flash of a Smile is one of my favorite albums, I listened to it again just last week.

I like the "simple" arrangement a lot! A nice song!
