Dwell-Logic version

I originally recorded this in Garageband a while back. It was posted here before, so maybe it's familiar to some of you, but that version has been deleted from MJ. I wanted to improve a lot of things about it, and in the midst of re-mixing it in Logic Express 8, I re-recorded the vocal, the bass guitar, programmed new drums (EZ Drummer-Nashville Kit), added the electric guitar, trimmed back the organ and string parts from the original, and added a bit of the Ultrabeat Elements drumkit. I went for a bit more of an alt-rock Radiohead sound this time, since the original was a bit too precious, even for me.

Dwell

I don’t dwell on any one thing
When I open my mouth to sing
I just let the tones come out
like stones
dropping in a pond

I don’t dwell in any place
when I look to see your face
I just hope to stand alone
when I
finally come home

And the ripples move out
sustaining that movement
And the waves wear against the shore
leaving nothing to stand forevermore

I don’t dwell on a distant past
One that I’d hoped would last

I’ve moved onto better things
when I
finished my training

And the ripples move out
from where the stone was tossed
and the ripples move out
but I don’t dwell

I don’t dwell on circumstance
nothing came of the chance
I don’t dwell on those dreams
that never controlled me
