about

This was written regarding the theme of "sunrise/sunset".
The lyrics were written in a stream-of-consciousness style. The song is played on electric guitar. The guitar was tuned to Open C tuning with a capo on the first fret.
There are two variations of the rhythm guitar track; one variation is played normally and is panned in the right channel, the other is played on slide guitar and is panned in the left channel. I initially wanted to play the lead guitar on slide, but found it too frustrating and decided to play the notes without a slide.
Since I am not experienced with slide guitar, there are some out-of-tune sounding chords.

lyrics

Looking outside my back door
Black night fades away to shades of blue
I was not aware of the warning
But I know that it's almost morning

I can hear the birds singing
There's a yellow glow on the horizon
I've stayed up all night tll dawn
It's so beautiful when the sun is rising

Mother Earth, you shine your light
Over the ground occupied by night
I can't look at you for too long
For you'll burn me with your song

There is no more darkness in the room
The light shines through the window
All the gloom and murk fades away
Replaced with happiness of a new day
