“Tempest” is specifically about the vertigo that I experience all the time as I have Mal de débarquement syndrome (MDS) but I suppose it could be about any situation that has you feeling like you are spinning out of control. I debated whether or not to release at all as I never really liked the vocals but I do like the guitars, especially the chugging ones at the end. One of these days I need to learn drums (and guitar for that matter) to add some sorely needed percussion to these projects.
Tuning: Open D
Lyrics:
Everything was in place
Now the ground is shaking
But I’m still
Caught in the storm
Against my will
I’m hanging onto you
I’m hanging onto you
For dear life
A quiet storm
Unfolds a tempest
Spinning all around
Lost in the currents
Waves crashing down
I’m hanging onto you
I’m hanging onto you
For dear life
I’m hanging onto you
I’m hanging onto you
For dear life
