Less Than Whole (original version) #rockballads

This is the original version of the recently published song "Less Than Whole". https://youtu.be/JQtxvDgh1lQ This cover version features my vocal clone on top of my original guitar track. Semi-acoustic, acoustic guitar with single electric guitar. The lyrics were refined in the other version, but musically this is closer to my instrumental recordings. Thanks for listening! Feedback is welcome :) Lyrics © Señor Barends A quiet pull within the tide Takes me under I don't fight Every line I drew so tight Breaks apart and fades from sight Every thought wears thin and frays Like a thread lost in the haze I don't count what it may cost Just feel the warmth exhaust No weight no time no space Nothing left to chase I'm not lost just set free Watching all unwind in me It feels like leaving shores behind No trace of what I hoped to find I don't reach I don't resist I exist within the mist The deeper I sink the less it stings Like embers forgetting their wings Every scar that shaped my skin Dissolves where light begins Carried past the need to cling Through the hush of evening Not healed not whole but light Floating through the night No weight no time no place Open sky without a face I drift where the winds may go Through the dark between the glow No past weighing on my chest No future making requests It all fades without a sound No weight no time no ground Carried past the need to fight Through the last of fading light Not healed, not whole, but at peace In a soft, unfinished release
