The darkness is rising
The fog rolls in
The lighthouse reveals
Those washed in sin
Their black flag
A warning of death
The scourge of the seas
Disease on their breath
Enormous in numbers
Swarming like rats
Tearing the country asunder
They make their attack
Looting storehouses
And chopping down men
The hunger
The bloodlust
It begins
A human plague
That cannot be stopped
Those that have tried
They dropped
Like flies
They take only
What they desire
The rest is discarded
And consumed by fire
Where once stood a hearty land
Now lies complete desolation
Death, destruction wielded by their hands
Total devastation
A cautionary tale to thee
Keep a watchful eye on the sea
And at a seconds notice
Be ready to flee
So i'm pretty bad when it comes to impulse buying and after seeing Floater again I got it in my head that I would like to play bass. I feel like I should be able to play an instrument, even though technically my voice is an instrument, I need that tactile feeling. I attempted to learn guitar in the past, which wasn't very successful but I feel that the simplicity of the bass will make it an easier instrument to learn. I also plan on bugging my friend Seth to help me with the bass as well.
Anyways I ended up buying this bass from musiciansfriend.com, http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/product/reviews?base_pid=519499
And of course I chose the black model, because black is metal, but sadly it will be a few days before I have said bass in my hands. I curse thee UPS ground shipping! But I suppose you can't beat free shipping.
