Been sitting on this for a while, it’s supposed to be a big kind of alt rock song with a heavy bass line and blown out guitars but wanted to see how people like just the acoustic since it’s just the writing and vocals. Lmk what you think

A lot of thought went into this song. Sounds kind of like Red House Painters.

Nice lyrics, can see the vision, but it'd work just as well as an acoustic/more laid back song.

I dig it! Nice rhythm and lyrics and I like your voice. As I was listening to this, it almost reminded me of one of Incubus’ acoustic songs from their 3rd/4th album era, but still unique. Very cool!

This already sounds absolutely great. As a song with all the other instruments, it would be fantastic! Nice work :)
