about

EG- @zecoop Sent me this beautiful guitar part, and I thought it was so amazing that I promptly...didn't do anything with it for a couple weeks. Then yesterday I found this weird theramin thing on the synth and...away we went.

ZC: Away we went, indeed! It's always fun when you forget about songs during FAWM. I knew I had sent Ezra something, but I had no idea what and I had been without power at my house, freezing and staying in bed until yesterday, when I decided to push on and FAWM away with extension cords from the generator in my cold cold basement. I got the recording stuff working where my drums are and went to work on this one. I love what this turned into - The Eargoggle is a master at coming up with inventive melodies and lyrical stories - this one had both, and I love it. I am *super* happy we were able to get a song written together! This FAWM has been more challenging for me than most, even though songs are coming.

This is another #capochallenge because I stuck the capo wayyyy up on the 8th fret. :)

lyrics

I try to hold you but it's no use
there's nothing there but the same crooked smile
I have known you but only so much
just enough to make me shudder
Another world calls and you're gone once again
sometimes you fly away like the wind
I am happy with only a glance
and I know I'm fooling myself

Ooo you're a heaven sent hideaway
ooo my little secret stowaway

It's nightime when you call for me
daybreak and you're already gone
I don't know that you feel for me
yet still I feel you're my own

ooo you're my heaven sent hideaway
my little secret stowaway
my heaven sent hideaway
my little green stowaway

I get jealous sometimes, of your extra life
I'm so earthbound I can't fly
away with you, to stay with you

Well here's my routine again
bed's empty so I walk outside
I know when I'm missing you
I feel you in me, when I look to the sky

about

ZeCoop Kalamazoo, Michigan

I love playing music and keep learning new instruments. My songs are in a wide range of styles, from indie-rock to surf, to folk to rock to electronic... I never know. I record at home in a studio I put together in a spare room. I work (via the web) with a lot of vocal/lyric collaborators from all over the world.
