David, this is really good. It reminded my a lot of John Prine. You picked the perfect backing tracks for this song. This may be your best vocal to date.
Excellent song.

I like your writing and music. You know that. But this, this is on a whole new level. Brilliant lyrics and the music is the perfect compliment. In addition, probably, if not your best vocal ever.
Nicely done sir.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Holy. Moly.
WOW.
"Now I’m trapped inside a burning world
That used to hold my dreams
And I know that all our secret wounds
Are deeper than they seem
Is it something I allowed one time
When I turned the other way
I cannot speak my answer though
Cause I don’t know what to say"
O.M.G.
That would be enough to label this "great".
But, then....to follow with this:
"I am not ready to surrender
To my anger and my pain
So I am praying for something
But I do not know it’s name"
Jaw. Drop.
I am SO glad you did this in a true-David-Snyder voice. Your best vocal ever.
This is great song writing. I do not say that lightly.
I can give you no compliment higher than... I would be proud to have written this.
WOW.

Yes, I agree...brilliant lyrics. I'd like to to add that the chorus is exceptionally good--it's poignancy strikes at the heart. Well done, Dave!

Hi David,
If I were there with you brother, after a long, silence...
I would just say Wow, just wow. This is such a poignant, thoughtful and emotion provoking song.
It reminds me of "The Answer is Blowing in the Wind", only, I say in sincere honesty better.
Thanks for posing it.

Good choice with the guitar - it's a good contrast with the vocal line.
Bringing in the strings on the second half was really effective.
Love the title, and the rest of the lyrics don't disappoint!
Nice emoting on the vocal as well.
Good song!

Excellent song. Hello David ... I fully agree with Mario's comments - particularly the John Prine reference. I like the simple arrangement ... perfect for the piece. Sometimes I just pray because it gives me warmth and comfort ... nothing particular. Just the connection. Again, excellent! loved it! Best to you & yours. Be safe! Alan

A brilliant write, David, matched by a very good vocal- tender and a real.
I guess its just me: I was wishing that busy guitar track away, leaving the piano & cello behind you.
Very very fine songwriting; up there with your best.

Man, we were immediately hit with a Billy Joe Shaver vibe...
This pretty much exemplifies the whole singer-songwriter thang...
We'd quote fav lines but that would be the whole song.
Outstanding David.
