about

"This song was written in about 5 minutes, but ultimately took years to properly produce a recording that sounded accurate to what I heard in my head in those first minutes.

The original (demo) recording was made at Crescendo Sound Studios in Gainesville, FL and featured on "The Only Way Out is Up" EP, which was only available to stream, not to download. Early mixes and versions were handed out at local shows on burned CDs, usually with "Seeing Clearly" and other mixes from that time period.

The current recording, much like the original demo, was mostly recorded at my personal studio (Shades of Gold), with the drums and bass recorded elsewhere. In this case, the drums and bass were recorded at ClearTrack Studios in Clearwater, FL.

The song itself was written with some ambiguous meaning. I hope you enjoy it! Please share it with your friends."

lyrics

STICK AROUND
by Mikei

Lay in bed with such a bore
Oh you know, the same old story
Plotting out pipe dream plans
To save me from impending demands

More, More, More
More from me means more for you
More, More, More
Know I should leave, but I guess I'll

Stick Around (4x)

All the time things get better
But me, I think I should forget her
False ideals, fantasy dreams
Built as though a cage around me

More, More, More
More from me means more for you
More, More, More
Know I should leave, but I guess I'll

Stick Around (8x)

With patience winding down,
Unless a refill has been found
Expect a fleet escape, and once on my way
It's too late to change, (to change, to change)

Stick Around...
