Please let me know what you think of this song I wrote for my American Literature class. I am well aware the recording isn't the greatest, what I'm more interested in is if the composition is good. Most of the instruments are finalized but due to latency need to be moved into their place so they line up correctly. The vocals are scratch tracks.
Here's the song.
As I said in the OP title, it's a creative response based off of Long Day's Journey Into Night.
Here are the lyrics:
The days are long
But the nights are endless
There's a sound that keeps her awake
In the fog you'll hide
Where no one can witness
Or point fingers at your mistake
And from above a sound will wear out your resolve
And it goes
Ooh, ooh, ooh
There's a ghost upstairs in the spare bedroom
And she's wailing for her dreams gone by
We could just pretend that it don't exist
But she's playing that piano and she's
Acting like she has already died
So take a pull
On that bottle of whiskey
Forget the ghost that is your spouse
To take all the blame
Is far too risky
There's more than one kind of spirit in this house
Thanks for the feedback in advance.

A small critique, the lyrics in the verses seem, I don't know, a bit blocky. The Chorus is good though. The verses just don't have the same flow.
All in all it's good though.
