ALL THAT WE DESERVE                         Robert Depriest 2009

V1
Lonely, restless, don't know which way to go
Cold perspective, reaping what we sow
The prayers a man sends, to the god he chose
Go unanswered, no reply that I know

CH1
Why are all the lonely people, found guilty at their birth
Waiting for some holy wheel to grind them back to dirt
I don't claim to know the answer, and most seem too absurd
Yet I can't believe this life is, all that we deserve

V2
Is it random, or some fated plan
Who hands out the, measure of each man
And gives the least to, those that need it most
It's been that way since, In Principio

CH2
Why are all the lonely people, found guilty at their birth
Waiting for some holy wheel to grind them back to dirt
I don't claim to know the answer, and just ones too absurd
Yet I can't believe this life is, all that we deserve

CH3
Why are all the chosen people, found guilty at their birth
Waiting for some holy wheel to grind them back to dirt
I don't claim to know the answer, and just ones too absurd
Yet I can't believe this life is, all that we deserve

WOW!  Really nice, it sounds so clean, with really strong vocals. Can't really explain it, but there's a nice simpleness to this song that's really relaxing. Great job to all involved.

Cheers,

John

Thanks John,.. and yes your right,.. the piano progression is naturally "flowing" so that is where the relaxing feel comes in to play.  Just don't fall asleep till the song is done ok.

Another very cool song with some very classy keys and guitar work. The drums and bass fit perfectly too. You already know I'm fan of your vocal ability Jay so that goes without saying, although I just did 

Well done to everyone who contributed.

Means alot to me.

I've gorged myself on this feast of a song. An excellent production with some great mixing tricks bring a fine set of lyrics to life. The rhythm section are bang on and Lino's nifty guitar work adds even more quality.

Jay - Your vocals and piano performances are sublime. Your production and mixing skills haven't gone unnoticed either.

This really deserves a wider audience.

Well done gentlemen!

It's always a treat hearing your vocals up front, Jay. Fantastic delivery; nice song and great production.
