Untied (original)

U N T I E D
I slide into the hidden spaces
Joyride in unfamiliar places
Rolling like thunder
Cracking your world awake
Leaving you in wonder
Clutched in the palm of fate
I'm high
Come fly the sky with me
Untied
Set your spirit free
You crave the glow of adoration
Peering through bars of isolation
Wishes can take you
Up to the edge of free
Leaving you to ponder
Just what your life could be
I'm high
Come fly the sky with me
Untied
Set your spirit free
Rise high
Above the blackened sky
Sparkles shimmering
In your azure eyes
Oh the wonder
The things that we see
Oh the heaven
Of love when it's set free
I'm high
Come fly the the sky with me
Untied
Set your spirit free
You slide into the hidden spaces
Joyride in unfamiliar places
We're high
You fly the sky with me
Untied
We set our spirits free
We're high
You fly the sky with me
Untied
We set our spirits free

This is the third original song in my Drums-First Series, which are songs that I write originating with drums. Normally I write with guitar so this series is a creative journey meant to send me in new directions. How it works is I sit behind the drum kit and come up with a few parts that I think work together (verse part, chorus part and maybe a bridge or instrumental part), figure out the rough structure of the song and then record the drums for the whole song. At this point I have no preconceived idea what the melodic instruments or vocals will be doing. The drums lead, followed by bass and then guitar and vocals as well as keys. I build the song layer by layer based on what works nicely with the previous layer. I am having so much fun creating songs this way and I hope you enjoy taking this journey with me :)
