Description
Bryn had put some audio in our shared Dropbox and I pulled a beat out and started recording over the top of it. What I really liked about the beat was the fuzzy abrupt noises that were in it. I added another track of me playing my sons bongo drums, and then built the song. the organ chords play the same thing all the way through. any changes are a result of the vocal melody changing and the notes of the ambient sounds playing something outside of the chords.
I finally got to use the exs instrument made from bird cries (you can hear it in the chorus). the metallic pads were done with reaktor and alchemy. everything else was in Logic. For some reason I keep picturing Peter Gabriel doing a much better version of this (even though it's written for my kids).

Lyrics
i'll build a home for you
to shelter yourself in
down by the shore
the air is fresh and you can breathe
don't you know what I see in you?
don't you know how i feel when i'm with you?
you should know that I chose to be here
to keep you safe
i'll grow some food for you
to nurture yourselves with
i'll teach you all I can
i want to see you thrive
don't you know what I see in you?
don't you know how i feel when i'm with you?
you should know that I chose to be here
to keep you safe
to keep you warm
nothing will ever touch you
no one will ever be coarse to you
you will never go hungry
i'll keep you safe
i'll keep you warm
i'll keep you safe
i'll keep you warm
i'll keep you safe
i'll keep you warm...
to keep you warm
to shelter yourself in
down by the shore
the air is fresh and you can breathe
don't you know what I see in you?
don't you know how i feel when i'm with you?
you should know that I chose to be here
to keep you safe
i'll grow some food for you
to nurture yourselves with
i'll teach you all I can
i want to see you thrive
don't you know what I see in you?
don't you know how i feel when i'm with you?
you should know that I chose to be here
to keep you safe
to keep you warm
nothing will ever touch you
no one will ever be coarse to you
you will never go hungry
i'll keep you safe
i'll keep you warm
i'll keep you safe
i'll keep you warm
i'll keep you safe
i'll keep you warm...
to keep you warm
