lyrics

I walk down the street and everyone's smiling
like I'm holding a mirror up as I'm watching the sky
or walking round all the paperback aisles
hoping to see the thing I've been trying to find

I'm determined to find
something happy inside
something happy inside
I can finally believe in

But it's like I'm in a dream when everyone's smiling
and I'm naked, blushing red, just trying to hide
wandering round with a paper-bag on
only over my head, just to cover my pride

I'm determined to find
something happy inside
something happy inside
I can finally believe in
something happy inside
something happy inside

I walk down the street and everyone's smiling
like I'm holding a mirror up as I'm watching the sky
stumbling down to the place in my mind
where all love begins,

but when I arrive
all the books are just
barely out of reach
the closed sign's still swinging
dimly in the night
so alone when you arrive
you arrive just to find
the closed sign's still swinging
dangling on a line
its tipsy shadow keeping time
to a rhyme from inside
my silent voice has been singing

I'm determined to find
something happy inside
something happy inside
I can finally believe in
something happy inside
something happy inside

yeah everything's fine

about

Cal Wilson Vancouver, Washington

I'm a bedroom songwriter, composer, producer looking to explore the boundaries of creation from under my blankets.

"Cult of Love" was human created.

"Sleeping in the Gateway" is part of an ongoing project of research and dialog with my computer via GPT-2 for text and Google Magenta for midi. Each of these songs was partially generated by an AI, then I re-composed, arranged, and produced them.
