Pier (2022 Version) by Rock Island published on 2022-07-10T04:13:01Z This song is the first love-song I've wrote in a long time, and it's arguable whether or not it's a love song. The core idea of the song is that I'm content with my life, and where and who I am. We all want to find a partner, someone with whom we can share our life experiences. In my quest for finding love, I won't compromise on myself. So, I'll be here - and you can join me, or not. But you'll know where to find me... -- I'll sit and wait up here - I like to watch the waves disappear. I'm sure I'll find you up here my dear - those lost in thought seem to be drawn here. Is it the light the from the bay? A certain beauty that makes this simple place. I just hope I find you here so we can watch the waves disappear. Hold tight, hold tight to my hand. A night like this might be our last stand. This place is hard to find - so I want to be left behind. What do you want to do? ...want to do... Do you want to go? I plan to stay, and I can't be swayed. I love the view. It's up to you. ...love the view, this place makes the perfect home. This place makes the perfect home...together and alone. It's too loud to go back. I'd much rather wait from here. I like the lights of the shoreline and the sound from the pier. There's a path to somewhere new, but I've never wanted to go far. I'm sure there's life and love to find, but I feel this place in my heart. Hold tight, hold tight to my hand. A night like this might be our last stand. This place is hard to find - so I want to be left behind. What do you want to do? ...want to do... Do you want to go? I plan to stay, and I can't be swayed. I love the view. It's up to you. ...love the view, this place makes the perfect home. This place makes the perfect home...together and alone. Home... -- Check my profile for merch!

The mixing of the vocals are a little bit weird tho, 'cause the volume of the vocals goes up and down throughout the verse instead of the vocal dynamic itself. otherwise good job 2022-07-22T22:11:12Z Comment by Earl Tommy Fresco Great guitar riff this oneβs a real summer hit 2022-07-22T06:09:42Z Comment by Molly Barnett like that guitar lick! 2022-07-20T19:19:23Z Comment by Fabulon Official This is a really nice track man.
