about

Ever feel like the world doesn't work for you? Get stuck? See other people seemingly get what they want out of life (even though you know it's not true)?

That's kinda this. The push pull of doubt and hope. I tried to get that in the music. The ending is the ceaseless hope I can't help but feel/wish for. No matter what occurs.

Written at the beginning of the pandemic. Finally finished in 2021.

I'm really proud of this song. I hope you like it

Mike

lyrics

Can you see the light Shining on the wall
Everyone can find so we are not alone

I want life Looking to the stars
Everywhere we go the light will guide the way

In this life we seek Everything we want
Falls away from me Then it's gone

See you fly under all this weight
And I wonder why you try at all

Everyone can be anything they want
It's what I try to believe
But I don't

Life goes by lost in wasted days
Can I find new hope Say it's not too late

That the light will shine for everyone

Mike Grutka Guilderland, New York

Grutka’s got some serious talent...Best of all, he’s got the songs. Smart tunes with the requisite Beatles-pop roots, to be sure, but he stretches out beyond the usual pop protocol without abandoning accessibility. Greg Haymes, Nippertown.com
