I feel bad for not putting out anything in a while even though I made no promises, so here you go!

I finally made something in between all the other projects I have going on, and it still took me two weeks (partly because I got sick again). I wrote this song about two weekends ago after a bout of inspiration, and while it's just a simple acoustic piece, I think it sounds pretty nice the way it is. Huge thanks and props to CG Scrambles (www.youtube.com/user/p... for the awesome drawing!

Enjoy!

PS. A few updates: "In Spite of You" is almost done! I'm working on the PMV now. My next priority is to make a pop punk full band version of this song ("Never Going Back") - I wrote it as an acoustic, but I can already hear how awesome it would sound full band as well!

If you want demos, WIPs, and other fun stuff I'm working on as they come up, subscribe to me (or just check me out) on SoundCloud for more immediate updates: soundcloud.com/pencile...

LYRICS:
Lately I can't stop myself from feeling
Like everything I do will just go wrong
Lately I just stare up at the ceiling
Hoping that the answer comes along
I hope I find the answer after long

I spent the better part of the last season
Lighting my own hopes up and watching them burn out
I never bothered with a rhyme or reason
For why I had to bring about, to scream and shout, a crippling self-doubt in me

I guess I thought it would be
Easier to just wait and see
I guess you thought I would be
Back to the same old pony

You know I would never turn my back on the road
That I have paved, my feet are wearing under me
I wish I could drop this and go back, cuz the load
That I've been laid, you know that it's killing me

I bought myself some time with my obsession
With working hard and playing it off while still honest
I'm still just getting used to this progression
From back when I was young and restless, always reckless, now who am I to end this?

I guess I thought it would be
Easier to just wait and see
I guess you thought I would be
Back to the same old pony

You know I would never turn my back on the road
That I have paved, my feet are wearing under me
I wish I could drop this and go back, cuz the load
That I've been laid, you know that it's killing me

I built myself up just to fall back down with nothing to show for
I built myself up just to fall asleep and dream that I do something more
I built myself up just to fall back down with nothing to show for
I built myself up just to fall asleep and dream that I do something more
I guess I'm never going back

You know I would never turn my back on the road
That I have paved, my feet are wearing under me
I wish I could drop this and go back, cuz the load
That I've been laid, you know that it's killing me

You know I would never turn my back on the road
That I have paved, my feet are wearing under me
I wish that my life could just go back, cuz the load
That I've been laid, you know that it's killing me

I guess I'm never going back

BACKGROUND:
Sometimes it's hard growing up and/or moving on. Wouldn't it be nice to just go back to the way things were? Applejack sure felt that way working on the cherry farm in "The Last Roundup," one of my favorite episodes of the show. She wishes she could go back to Ponyville but thinks that she can't because she will have let everypony down.
