Pre-production update

I have almost demoed all of the songs out, there are only a few left to do.

The track list besides the 2 bonus songs are all figured out and are as follows:

"Patience"
by faith, not sight
blinded by the lights
who are you?
dance with me
coffee (copeland cover)
salt & pepper
to the moon!
staring at the stars
honey, I’m home!
so aware, so careless
patience

This is not the definite order and there will be 1-2 bonus tracks at the end

Andy Coad will do most, if not all, of the drums on this CD.
Devin Pogue may appear in one or more songs for backup vocals.
Jessica Wells will sing on one or more of the songs.

I may begin recording this upcoming weekend. Probably only one or two songs at most for now though.
I may put up some demos on myspace soon.

News

I have decided that since I do not use this blog very often that I am going to change it's use.

I am recording my debut album, "Patience", this summer.

This blog will now be used as my studio blog to give updates on recording.

Currently I have demoed almost the entire CD, but that doesn't mean much.

More Info coming soon!

♥ Carl

p.s. expect an EP (or new CD) after this because I have been writing a lot lately!

My Mind Does Not Know Best

It's been a while
Since I've slept so sound
My attempts all fail
They keep me bound

Every second lasts forever
And keeps me far away
From this life affirming slumber
That takes me from today

I long to rest deep and full
But my mind will not stop
My body may have been lulled
But my mind won't let it drop

My mind will not let me rest
Although my body needs to
My mind does not know best
But keeps on pushing me through

My mind will not stop
My mind won't let it drop
My mind will not let me rest
My mind does not know best

----------------------

I've been having some trouble sleeping if you can't tell...it's quite frustrating
