This is my submission for this month's Styles Challenge.
Soundstyles is a group that I own and manage, where I issue one challenge a month for musicians willing to try it. You can check out what the Styles Challenge is at
soundstyles.
So here's my track for the challenge, which is to write a song with multiple time signatures. The verse is 5/4, and the chorus is 6/4.

I had a lot of fun making this.
Enjoy!
-UPDATE-
Re-recorded the vocals. That should sound better.

Never did you tell me just what you wanted
Here's your chance - how about it?
From where we're standing it's a long way down
Looking over, I stumble and I...
Here it comes; hold your breath
It's about to get a little bit crazier than we ever guessed
Now's the time - take my hand
There's the end of the line; it's time to decide
Gotta know when to jump, I promise these
Paper wings will carry us out of the dark
There's another world waiting out there just for us
Here's confusion, it's understanding
This illusion...so enchanting
See the stars they beg for answers
Feel my heart it's beating faster
Here it comes; hold your breath
It's about to get a little bit crazier than we ever guessed
Now's the time - take my hand
There's the end of the line; it's time to decide
Gotta know when to jump, I promise these
Paper wings will carry us out of the dark
There's another world waiting out there just for us

Dude, that's my djembe - I finally found out how to rig my mic to record it =D. It's multi-tracked in, but the drum itself is just one live track. This is my first track with the djembe, and something tells me it's going to make a huge impact on my style, 'cause I fucking LOVED recording this.
Seriously, talk to me some time, bro - I haven't heard from you like forever!

It took me like 20 minutes to find a good picture to use for this song, because my signature acoustic pic just wouldn't cut it for this. I should probably see about getting a new signature pic for this stuff, since I plan on doing a lot more xP.
And thanks <3! I was really happy with the sound ^^.

Sometimes we focus on aspects of composition or songwriting, and sometimes the challenge is to steal what you like and make it your own.
I'm always taking suggestions for the Styles Challenge, by the way. I'd love to have some ideas for compositions/lyric-based challenges set aside just in case.
Anyway~
Thanks for listening, man. I'm pretty proud of this one, and I'm glad you liked it.
