Balance Lost

Radiator grilles and pelican crossings
Are tricking my brain to feel
There's somebody watching

Now we're seeing different things
Cos we're using different eyes
Could you be tripping?
Or am I?

Trying to read the signs
Trying to read the air
I can see there's nothing there
Looking in my cornflakes
Has something disappeared
Maybe it was never there

What did they mean
When they said it happened for a reason
What have the seen
Do they know something I'm missing?

Now we're seeing different things
Cos we're using different eyes
Could you be tripping?
Or am I?

Trying to read the signs
Trying to read the air
I can see there's nothing there
Looking in my cornflakes
Has something disappeared
Maybe it was never there
Trying to read the circles
Trying to read the squares
I can see there's nothing there
Looking in your scriptures
Has something disappeared
Maybe it was never there

It's OK. The vocal doesn't sound off-key to me. Nice moments but it feels a little rushed. Liked the join between field recording and the song, and I do like that 40 seconds or so, so...

Field recording or sample? If you record a t.v. show or a video is it a field recording? Ah, but field recording a la Alan Lomax? Aye, that's a field recording. But did you make it? Nowhere in the challenge did it say you had to make your own. Still....
I like the rhythmic elements, the music is good and the ending is cool. Love the intro. Verse melody is okay, I like the melodies later better. Book ending the field recordings seems to be popular. I do love how you use that sample (okay, field recording) as a launch pad. I changed your placement in my rankings the most, I think. A couple of times. There is a lot I like here.
