Let Me Drown

I've begun writing some new material. I'm not sure if it will be for the band or solo, but I've just finished recording (with Chappy) a demo of the first song for this project. It is called "Let Me Drown". I'll let it speak for itself.

Here's the demo:

Let Me Drown
Words and music by Tom Baker (c)2008

You seem disappointed
Did you think this would last?
The statement so pointed
"All things must pass"
Are you that naive?
Did you really believe in me?

If this came so easy
How would you figure out
That nothing worth having
Is just laying about?
Why can't you see
You're just spinning your wheels with me?

Love is an anchor
Pulling you down
I'm already sinking
Just let me drown

Passion may be a good thing
But not for paying the rent
Time is like money
And mine's already spent
You're just wasting your time
I've made up my mind

Love is an anchor
Pulling you down
I'm already sinking
Just let me drown

Am I just a habit
You never could shake?
I keep on bending you
But you never break

Love is an ocean
We're a ship lost at sea
The waves keep on crashing
But you never leave

I hope you enjoy the rough mix. I will post more as I write and record it. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

-Tom
