FAWM: "Hear the Ghosts Go Home (looking for specific feedback)"

Hear the Ghosts Go Home (looking for specific feedback)

Liner Notes

would love specific feedback on whether i should make verse2 have different lyrics like a normal song, OR should i keep the verse lyrics the same each time and change up the lyrics to the chorus each time?

i think the lyrics on V1 are stronger than my chorus lyrics so thats why i'm debating it. thanks for feedback!

Lyrics

capo on 3

VERSE 1:
(C) Oh I've lived (Am) long enough
to (F) hear the ghosts go (G) home
They (F) ask me if I'll (G) come along
to (Am) see where death (C) begins

CHORUS:
(F) Floatin' around the (C) universe
(F) tryin' to find our (G) way
to (F) feel like something (C) matters
(D) Doesn't that sound (G) great?

VERSE 2 (?? currently just a repeat of verse1)

BRIDGE:
(G) Ghost, go (Am) home
(F) Leave me where I'll (C) be
(G) alone, all (Am) alone
to (F) suffer (C) eternally

CHORUS (same lyrics as before? or different?)

Very pretty tune. I think you could go either way with repeating the lyric or not. Or split the difference and mostly repeat the words but add a few tiny changes!

Either way honestly. The bridge breaks it up so it's not just repeating half a song twice. I do like the previous comments too though. Switching the chorus.

I ran outta time in my first two farms and would just repeat half a song twice with a little bridge part and I think sometimes that's just fine. SWEET little tune. Spooky and sweet. Reminds me of rosenstocks "when you're a ghost" thematically anyway. Good job.
