EDIT: I’m live on twitch now, game starting in about 30 mins. Also, tell me what you think of this song! These comments are lonely and I like interacting here.
REAL QUICK This Thursday and Friday, Jan 28/29 I'm going to be streaming "Golf with Friends", and I'm going to make a public room.
If you have the game, come join us (Thursday - 9pm eastern, Friday -6pm eastern) on Twitch.tv/PepperCoyote. I'll make a room and tell everyone the password on stream.
Thursday is the test run and Friday is my little birthday stream.

This is a commission/collaboration where Jade Lynn (Fellow Patron and all around nice person) wanted me to help them finish a song that THEY had started writing many years ago. Together we worked a melody and some lyrics into this final product.
Jade also SINGS this song, along with another fellow patron: "H" aka Hentaiphiliac. Doing a little remote studio work has been hugely positive, especially with the continued isolation. I appreciate their patience and hard work in regards to their vocal takes.
It features a piano and bass interplay at the beginning, and the verse has a pretty smooth groove if I do say so myself. The electric guitar near the end has 3 overdubbed layers and I really like the power it adds. I don't know why more people don't do layered electric.
Commissioned, lyrics, and lead vocals by: Jade Lynn
Backing Vocals: H and me
Intro: [Am Am/G Em, Am Am/G Em F, Am Am/G Em. F. . . ]x2
Am G
Safe Haven surrounds me in my mind
G G/E F
passersby assuming I am fine
F Dm G Am G
Knowing nothing but the void that fills my heart space
Am G
I cry out hobbled in my dreams
G G/E F
falling fast, no longer can I fly
Dm G Am G
all my hopes are dashed and ripped to pieces
Am Am/G Em7 Am Am/G Em7 F Am Am/G Em7 F
Slicing through the grave embrace that holds me
F
I find I'm running once again
Needn't worry
Dm C/E F
I’ve learned this much, that they’ll always find me
Dm C/E
But maybe this time, I'll be dead
F C/E
Maybe this time, I’ll be damned
Dm C/E G F. . . E7
Maybe this time, I'll be a saint again
E7
Be a saint again
Safe Haven surrounds me in my mind
passersby assuming I am fine
Knowing nothing but the void that fills my heart space
I cry out hobbled in my dreams
falling fast, no longer can I fly
all my hopes are dashed and ripped to pieces
Dm F
Now I feel my skin is burning
G
the licking flames at my back
G (bass F E)
you finally found me here
Dm F
Maybe it will be worth saving me this time
G
maybe we’ll break through
My hope lies with you
(bass F E) Dm7
My future flies on your heights
Safe haven surrounds me in my mind
passersby assuming I am fine
Knowing nothing but the void that fills my heart space
I cry out hobbled in my dreams
Falling fast, no longer can I fly
cut me down, I’ll rise up like the Phoenix
