This is one of the more serious songs I've written. I think it fits nicely with the music ( www.purevolume.com/pierpointca (http://www.purevolume.com/pierpointca) if you want to hear it) I also fit in references to other songs on that album, as well as the album name/title track "If I Could Go Anywhere, I'd Go Everywhere". There's a line in another song that says "I dont' know where I'm going, do you want to come with?" I think it's cool becasue this is the last song on the album. It's about the struggles lovers will endure but knowing it's worth it.


With You

So I sit around on a Sunday, watching her spinning 'round with her arms outstretched, waiting for the sun to come out. I scream, "You get him, girl. He'll come around." Now the calendar says its October. The nights are getting cool and the days are getting short. Leaves fall down and the air gets dry, and I wonder... Why don't I just give up if I'm not going to try? So I rack my brain for an idea to get my body off the ground and high into the sky, to taste the air that my lungs need, the empty air of a better life. There's a good chance that I'll burn up and fall apart upon my reentry. I'll just pick up where I left off, with my parts scattered upon the sea. Why don't I just give up if I'm not going to try? I don't know where I'm going. Do you want to come with? If I could go anywhere with you, I'd go everywhere. I'd go everywhere and see everything. I'd do anything and feel anything with you.

this is very good. i like the music too, nothing groundbreakingly original, but obviously you're not going for that. quite chilled and summer-y. i can imagine the lyrics going well to it.

wow I really liked this. The joint vocal was really creative. And that's both you? Cool. You have a nice voice. The lyrics were really powerful and I would definitely listen to this a lot.

Thanks, I contend that this is the best song instrumentally I have ever done. I don't know how I came up with that bass line, but I love it. Please do listen to it a lot, and share it with people!

I'm really glad you like it. :) Yeah, it's all me. I felt like it was a risky move trying to do the harmony the whole way through, since I consider my singing to be my biggest weakness. I'm glad you noticed it though. Listen to it over and over.

I think I've said this a million times, and in my other lyric thread, but if anyone wants me to send them any song/the whole album, message me on AIM: VanishingDude182 :) :)
