The First of March

from BitScapes by DeathBoy

about

This song was written on an iPod touch, as an entry to a competition for NanoStudio compositions. It featured words that a dear friend of mine said to me while we were discussing our lives and their ups and downs. She didn't realise I would be putting them in a song, for which I apologise hugely, I only hope she forgives me.

For my own life, things didn't get better, but for hers, they did, and for that, I'm very happy indeed as she fully deserved it.

I've got many more months of March to find, I know that the next one will give me the smiles and hope we were promised. Things will be better, now.

lyrics

I've always said February's always awful and the best you can do is grit your teeth and hope to get through in one piece.

And here we are, and the sun is shining.

Things will get better now.
