Standard Time

Liner Notes
Return of the ASMR vocals… (I keep putting off recording into the night… don't want to disturb fellow housemates in the rooms next to mine!)
Going in with a sequel to a song I wrote titled "Breeze", which discussed daylight savings, this song serves as a response to that - hence the title "Standard Time". I also utilized similar-ish chords and key to ground the songwriting in a similar fashion.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Standard time
Sunsets and skies
Standard time 是這樣
[Verse 1]
The straighest arrows got a little bit of bend {FAWM 2023 - Composing on Company Time (Day 10)}
Memories, locations in my head
Stuck to me, through (the) time again
Plus my feelings, prominently too
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh delay delay should leave now
Delay delay should I leave now
Oh it’s too late
[Verse 2]
爺爺奶奶的房子有氣味
回憶,記得,會覺得這樣
At stages of my life I don’t live there
Checkpoints in times, saving to care
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh delay delay should leave now
Delay delay should I leave now
Oh it’s too late
[Chorus]
Standard time
Sunset skies
Standard time 是這樣
[Bridge]
人類在全球到處
還是熱,睡著冷
不管的地方有才能
變成功的世界
你不必告訴父母任何事情
你自由是自己自由
人總是人
除了T恤機器人 {在Twitter網站}
[Chorus]
Just FYI, "Composing on company time - day 10" is a pretty sick lyric! Might be worth exploring for future songs...
Keep up the great work! Looking forward to hearing more
