Tangled Web: An Original Song

Tangled Web embodies how simple things can reveal more complex situations. The people we meet leave traces that intertwine into a tangled web that makes up our life and story. The lessons we learn from other people shape us and our future. In some ways on the outside this seems like a simple song, but it has a lot of layers. I hope when you listen you can relate with your own situations. With the mixture of major and minor chords, Tangled Web will leave you questioning, what did you mean? If you can embrace the world with its ups and downs, you can then choose to see the beauty in it all. This prevents us from becoming bitter or hardened by life’s situations. Not ignoring it, but rather seeing the imperfection and saying I’m going to make the most of this. This concept is something I had on my mind while writing this song. I would also like to thank my producer, Chris Bihuniak of Rock Band Academy Studios for all he has taught me over the years. I wouldn’t be where I am today without him.

Tangled Web

By Grace Piper Fields

You left your raincoat on the porch

and your flowers in the car

I asked you what you meant by that

You said, I don’t live far

Oh you

You left your raincoat on the porch

You

I built the castles in the sand

and that shirt you never wore

I didn’t ask you what you meant by that

but I knew there was so much more

Oh you

You never wore that shirt

You too

And then I realize

that I

live in a Tangled Web

with pieces of my head

We ran to the bakery in the rain

and snuck into the dance

You said, this might be a long shot

but just give me a chance

Oh you too

Left your raincoat

Castles, castles

You too

To the dance

You don’t live far

You too

You never wore that shirt

You too

Long shot, long shot

What did you mean?
