Default Been Too Close (original song born out of frustration)



How fortunate that we have the ability to vent through guitars and voice

Guitar sounds really good.

I could make out only a portion of the lyrics. A small portion.

been too close / weldon 2017

standing on the inside, looking for the truth
at this pointillistic picture on my wall
if i stand too close, it blurs right out of view
i need to pull a few feet back to see it all

i've been too close too long

have there always been these fissures, in this painting on my wall
was I too close to make sense of the truth
or did I turn a blind eye, to save myself some blues
choosing not to see the truth i knew at all

i've been too close too long

so what is it I feel, as I come to see the truth
do i change the way i look upon my song
or do i chalk it up, to getting longer in the tooth
another lesson that takes living long to learn

i've been too close too long

standing on the inside, looking for the truth
at this pointillistic picture on my wall

Love the song, the lyrics, your voice, the recording. A song I would like to cover... Thanks for sharing, Daniel!
