My first recording with the new microphone! I do not claim to own any of the rights to this song, it's a cover of Bob Dylan's "Make You Feel My Love". I just absolutely love the song and though it's been covered so many times I figured I could still do it better. Mwahaha. lol
I apologize in advance for the screw ups in my recording, but I'm still learning! :) Enjoy! ~v
Sorry it took me so long to upload it!
WICKED FUNNY!
We always seem to be looking for who’s going to do what for us next…
What we should focus on, as a country, is what we can do for each other.
Let’s try to think more locally. Mom & Pop stores and such. It might be a bit more expensive, but wouldn’t it be nicer to feed someone’s dream and give back to the community as opposed to feeding an overgrown, unsustainable monster that could crash and burn us all?
Anyone ever seen “Little Shop of Horrors”?
FEED ME, SEYMOUR! FEEED MEEEEE!
Anyway… That’s my goal, to do more shopping at small businesses. Vote with your dollar. Spend at the businesses that you want to support.
Woke up this morning to a terrible feeling
Loss of my heart and no way of healing
This kind of pain is the fear of the unknown
Impending terror and nowhere to go
One day you’ll grow up and not be within my care
Leaving my arms though I’ll want to be there
I fear for you what I’ve seen in others
I fear that I’m an incompetent mother
I woke with my palms pressed against my chest
My heart pounding and my breathing a mess
You were lying there so peaceful and sleeping
I picked you up and I began weeping
“What’s wrong?” You asked with half woken eyes
“I love you so much” was my first reply.
I had a dream that I’d lost you completely,
One of many that’s been haunting me lately,
This time you lived while in others you died,
But you weren’t you, there was a monster inside
A monster that grew and took over with each dose
Eventually to destroy one that I loved most
You cried out in horror at the crime that you had done
I stepped in to help but she was too far gone
I woke up crying and calling out for my mother
But she was not there
Only you
No other
I love you, my child, and I fear for the worst.
This world is so harsh, unforgiving, and cold.
I hope I can teach you how to survive it first
Before you forget everything you’ve been told…
There are people who’ve seen what I have seen in my dreams
They’ve lived it for real, they have more right to fear
Those people still lived and still pushed for survival
Just the hint I had suffered, I’d crack, so it seems
I don’t have the strength to lose what I hold dear
I’d bury my head to get away from it all…
I pray to God to take these dreams from me,
I can’t handle them, can’t bare them, you see…
My life has been hard but could be so much worse..
I thank Him for what I have, first and foremost.
I hope that one day I’ll look back and I’ll smile…
To think I was afraid to fight for what’s worthwhile…
During the First Annual Boondock Bettie Awards - http://www.twitvid.com/4FC6D, I won "Most likely to write a song about this" and so... I wrote a song about it :) I give you... The Boondock Bettie Theme Song! Woot! This song is meant for fun, please don't take it too seriously! LOL
Enjoy!
On one fine day in 2009
I got to see one of the best movies of all time

Little did I know this was just the beginning
Before too long I was a Boondock Bettie
