Skirmish: Hard to Believe (@scubed)Liner Notes
Please ignore crappy singing but if the vibe is there. I think vocal is inspired by meeting and hearing this guy Calvin Arsenia from Kansas who was at the festival I just went to.. he’s incredible ( not me obvs) and I could hear that kind of delivery working. Check him out guys plays harp and piano too .. I was open mouthed
Listening back now I’m squirming with embarrassment .. maybe need to nail it down a bit more . Eeeuuuw but not deleting it yet
Lyrics
Hard to believe
Is it so hard
To believe
To be
Is it so hard
To reveal
To see?
Are you so hard
You suffer
You hide.
Are you so hard
You can’t feel
Inside?
She never wanted this
The promise of a sudden exit
She never showed herself
And now you’ve set upon her
Is it only me who detects it?
Is it only me?
It’s hard to believe.
You are too hard
You judge
And win.
You are too hard
You determine
Let it in.
You are too hard
You stare
And glance
You are too hard
This time
Was chance.
He couldn’t recognise it
He was friendly to the end
He could have shown you
But now that chance has gone.
You have lost a good friend.
Is it only me?
It’s hard to believe.
Watching it unfold
Watching the layers
The stories told
The hidden players
Hard to believe
Well we knew them
They were kind
Hard to believe
Sweet and open
Loving blind
Hard to believe
Blinkered
Shut off
Shut down
Shut out
Hard to believe
Denying
Shut up
Shut in
Put about.
