    Default Conflict Of Interest (Acoustic)

    Some of you may remember the last set that I posted called Conflict Of Interest. Well, given the motivations behind the song and the general instrumentation I had for it, there was just something about it that was crying for an acoustic rendition of it. I just finished the acoustic version of the lyrics and am coming here to see what you all think. I hope you enjoy them. Feel free to give me feedback!

    Rejecting what’s inside of me
    To satisfy my pain,
    I don’t want this.
    You say I should be holding on,
    There’s everything to gain.
    I see nothing.

    Trying to find out the goddamn reason.
    Cut out my heart just to stop my breathing.

    My son will be left all alone
    Within this empty world.
    Is it worth it?
    I see the smile he gives to me,
    Unknowingly he cares.
    It may be something.

    Maybe I’m finding the one good reason
    To keep pushing on and to keep on breathing.

    No, my time’s almost over.
    It’s time to just walk through the door.
    My God, what am I doing?
    Why is my blood on the floor?

    Dear God, save me,
    Bring me to life,
    Save my son from his father’s weakness.
    Have you ever seen blood in the moonlight? It appears quite black. Have you ever seen spiders crawling on the graves?

    This is really good. It's deep and powerful and the title itself got me interested. It tells a story and portrays nicely how you feel. Great job.

    The first two lines should call anyone to attention on this, and then you wrap it all up really great. If you've written the music, what style?
    There is no glamour in sudden death, and nobody ever wins a war.

    This rendition of it is a nice smooth acoustic, somewhat akin to Devil by Staind, if that helps at all.
