lyrics

Even when I asked you out, I could not believe you were next to me
Couldn't help but shout it out, I had finally found my destiny
And she held me tight, so I knew right then, it would be alright
Nothing matters when, set to candlelight
Thus began our romantic history

And then soon we'd figure out that we won't work out quite so perfectly
And we'd even scream and shout, it seems sad, but love is so perplexing
And our love is true, so I'll hold it in, and I'll stick with you
Nothing matters when you've been feeling blue
Thus began our romantic mystery

I can't escape the words you say to me
You contemplate whether you'll stay or leave
I cannot restrain my love for you, so...

Maybe next I'll choke you out, pour a gasoline puddle next to you
Leave the candles burning out, as I cuddle up right there next to you
And I'll hold you tight, cause I love you so, and I'll make things right
I can't let you go, death by candlelight is the only way
To escape this misery

about

Daniel Eischeid Edmond, Oklahoma

Nirvana, Weezer, Ozma influenced, melodic, power pop-rock music. Strong melodies, hooks, and good harmony-driven rock. My personal acoustic demos I record on the spot, to give to my band (Starry Skies) to work up drum and bass and guitar tracks for. Some make it to our band's lineup, some don't. They sound very different when finished. Now, full band (solo) demos as well! Please enjoy. ... more
