Steemit Open Mic week 79 - Original Music by Darren Claxton

Happy chocolate day everyone!

I've decided to take things up a notch this week.
The music and songs we write deserve the very best sound quality possible so for that reason alone, I've used my trusty old Zoom 1608 Porta-Studio to capture my guitar and vocal. I use this recorder that I bought back in 2005, for everything I create musically! My new EP was produced with this old machine too, so I put my trust in it.

My Open Mic entry for week 79 is this brand new song that I wrote just this afternoon.
It's just me, the camera, my gorgeous Crafter TAO50 guitar and voice, oh and an old scrap of paper with some lyrics, that I managed to drag from the depths of my very soul!!

Reflected In Your Eyes

This weekend has also seen the release of my new EP 'Never Grow Old'

Exciting Times!! My Brand New 5 Track EP is out now! 'Never Grow Old' on Bandcamp and Available Here with SBD or STEEM

I hope you like my new song, and as ever, a huge thanks to the @openmic team and @luzcypher @pfunk for their continuous support for us independent musicians here on @steemit

Cheers

Darren

Lyrics - for @hedac and @yidneth - And for everyone else that likes to sing along to my tracks ;-)

And I can't buy your sadness
And I can't buy you a smile
I've waited on a long sigh
And claimed it again

Somewhere inside you
Remains my life
The one you tried to damage
It's the one I can't abide

To pay but never
I flee from your lies
rejuvenated conscience
reflected in your eyes

But didn't I didn't I tell you
It's the love that survives
But didn't I didn't I tell you
Somewhere I released and cried

And I can't buy your sadness
And I can't buy you a smile
I've waited on a long sigh
And claimed it again

And somewhere inside you
Remains my life
The one you tried to damage
It's the one I can't abide

To pay but never
I fleed from your lies
rejuventaed conscience
reflected in your eyes

But didn't I didn't I tell you
It's the love that survives
But didn't I didn't I tell you
Somewhere I released and cried
