A song about trying. Trying to create something good. Trying to get people to like it. Trying to get honest answers. Trying, but not succeeding.
alternative indie rock

The music of Lee Shapiro, which consists of a variety of styles and genres. I would appreciate if you "liked" or commented on any of the songs you enjoy.
My favorite kinds of music is the kind that surprises you. While I enjoy conventional type songs (verse, chorus, verse chorus, bridge, chorus), I prefer songs that take you on an adventure. This includes jam songs (Grateful Dead), and songs with many detours and lots of dynamics (Rickie Lee Jones, Dave Matthews). Although most of my songs tend to fall into some kind of normal verse/chorus formula, I do tend to try and mix things up a bit. Which is why most of my songs last longer than 4 or 5 minutes.

Story behind the song
A song of frustration and a bit of feeling sorry for myself that I get very little feedback on my songs posted here. So I took those emotions and channeled them into this song. It helped...a bit.
Lyrics
Tell me please. What it is about me. What you see. In front of you. I don't care. I am self-aware. All I need is just a little truth Hey Look into my eyes Hey Something just ain't right Hey It isn't like I didn't try Cause love ain't enough to get us by The sun is shining in the sky Don't know whether to laugh or cry The sun is shining in the sky Reflecting off my Glassy Eyes. Through the years. An ocean of tears. A lot of fears, for one man to drag. This is what. All Ive got. Maybe not a lot, for one man to have. Hey look into my eyes Hey reflecting back your lies. Hey maybe not so wise Telling my secrets, revealing my disguise. The sun is shining in the sky Much too bright to try and hide The sun is shining in the sky Reflecting off my Glassy Eyes. It's a pity. It's not the best I got. Its 50/50. Maybe take another shot. I never wanted to make a lot of money. I never wanted you to think of me as funny. Hey look into my eyes Hey listen to my sighs Hey what is it you find Someone who wants love and can sympathize. The sun is shining in the sky Can't predict the weather for tonight The sun is shining in the sky Reflecting off my Glassy Eyes. The sun is shining, reflecting off my glassy eyes. Reflecting off my glassy eyes. Reflecting off my glassy eyes.
