Janet Lee Myatt: Music

• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)
• MP3 short clip, lo-fi play (modem)

DEMO, RECORDED IN HOME STUDIO, MIDI DRUMS, BASS, KEYS

Darkness creeps on padded feet
Surrounds the soul, remains unseen
Swallows everything it meets
When will it stop

Slowly sinking to my knees
Head on the ground I beg and plead
Nothing gives me sweet relief
When will it stop

Oh won't you please explain to me
Why this must be
What grand design, what master plan
Would keep the key
Hidden

You tell me everything is set
Then why is everything a mess?
What comfort comes from emptiness?
When will it stop?

Relentless pressure in my heart
Hope is gone, I'm torn apart
The future feels much too large
When will it stop

Oh won't you please explain to me
Why this must be
What grand design, what master plan
Would keep the key
Hidden

How did we fall so far from grace
How did we come to be misplaced
Why is the plan to set us free
Hidden
Free
Hidden
