#outsidemyself

Indiegogo Day 11! (you can click on my bio link to support my debut album!) We now have 65 backers, and we are officially over 30% of the goal!!! woohoo! Thank you to recent contributors Scott Holcomb, Evan Moore (twice!), Cayce Means, Kevin Melsert, and Victoria Maxfield, and all the anonymous! With 20 days to go we're just about right on track, and I thank everyone who's taken the time to share and donate and view my videos - let's keep going! :) Today's #songofthedaychallenge : This is an original! It's a very old one, one I wrote in...2010? It was the first song I wrote on ukulele - maybe my 2nd or 3rd full song I ever wrote. It's about feeling very uncomfortable with physical existence, which is something I felt very keenly for a long time, and which I still feel from time to time. Being a human in a body is hard! The body dictates virtually everything in your life, when you think about it... Anyway, the song is called "Outside Myself" - hope you like it!

It's like I'm drowning in shallow water Because I have no strength to lift my head It's likes there's a million tiny knives in my chest It's like there's non existent hands around my neck Constantly try to touch Why does this happen to me? Why should this happen to me ? I tend to overthink everyday situations Predicting there outcomes Piece together what will and won't happen It makes my heartbeat a million miles an hour My eyes start to well I feel like I'm outside myself I feel like I'm outside myself Looking in But I can do nothing to help I can do nothing to help Nothing to help me Close my eyes Take a deep breath Take a moment Close my eyes Take a deep breath Take a moment I need to get away, away from it all So I can be by myself So I can take a deep breath Breath in and breath out I just need some time To clear out my head Think it all over and start it again I want to feel normal like I fit in and shine I'm outside myself I'm overthinking my life

Who am I? I'm talking and talking To hear myself talk (Who's talking?) Each word Takes me further From my body (Am I talking?) From up above I can see myself Talking (Who is that talking?) I am Unfamiliar To me (Who is that?) I do not know What that person Is trying to say (Who are they?) I cannot understand What that person Means (Was that me?) But they are talking And talking And talking (Is that me?) Talking Just to hear himself Talk (Who am I?) © David Rutter 2014 Visit me at http://www.maxmundan.com/
