I like things that reach a little further and are a little more abstract, but I don't think that's what I do naturally well. How I write naturally is probably what's furthest from me, and the most removed from what I understand.
I've never been to Vegas, but I've gambled all my life.
They don't make coats for this kind of cold
While the things I do kill me, they just tell me to relax
Words may move but they're never moving fast enough
It sounds like I'm channeling or something, and I don't really fully understand what it is. I'll get a piece of paper and write down what I think is coming to me. And I'll play it once. Whether it's being recorded or not, I can then usually remember it for a sometimes shocking amount of time.
