    Lyrics:
    I've spent my whole life,
    Trying to be someone,
    Yes I've spent my whole life,
    Trying to seize your love,
    So I rant and I rave,
    Like a rat in a cage,
    And I wonder,
    "Am I getting out?"
    So I bite and I bleed,
    And I'm baring my teeth,
    No I can't stop now.
    So I bark at the moon,
    I'm letting my demons out,
    Yes I bark at the moon,
    I'm letting the real me out,
    So I bark at the moon.
    I've waited so long,
    To finally be myself,
    Yes I've waiting so long,
    To feel the release from hell,
    So it's setting the sun,
    And the change has begun,
    In the darkness I die to come out,
    No I'm not on the run,
    I can't wait to be done,
    With the lies I tell.
    So I bark at the moon,
    I'm letting my demons out,
    Yes I bark at the moon,
    I'm letting the real me out,
    When the lights go out,
    Disguise is down,
    I'll finally be myself,
    Yes I bark at the moon,
    I bark at the moon.
    When I howl I feel so fearsome,
    When I howl I feel so free,
    To be me.

    I am definitely enjoying the creative challenges you have set yourself during this pandemic. Everything you released has been different but very you at the core of it. it hasn't got boring, or stagnant, or all same-y sounding despite releasing something every month. I love it.

    To be honest your music style is out of my norm (rap/metal) but enjoy like 90% of what I've herd from you and I'm glad I found your music

    • @ClosetoHumanMusic
      @ClosetoHumanMusic  Před 2 lety +7

      Thanks a lot! I also love rap and metal, and feel like there should be no limits or restrictions on the music we’re into. Like what you like and don’t worry about genres or scenes! 💪🏻

    @lynnayamoon Před 2 lety +4

    i mean, this is probably the best thing i have put in my earholes in ages. Gives me the 80s werewolf film vibes and i am here for it. You were lovely and kind in person, a brilliant artist and accomplished musician - if you sold toast, i would buy it. I enjoy supporting genuinely good humans. keep exploring you, and we will enjoy the ride exploring ourselves through the music you create.

    This "12 songs in 12 months" project, has been a great way to display your range of talents. Daniel, I want to shout at the World on your behalf, "Look over here at what Aesthetic Perfection is doing...!!! Can your band do this...?" This experience has enlightened me, about how music is made and how massively complex the music industry is in reality. Out of everything that you've done, so far, I never expected a music video. Your the "Road Runner" of musical talent, so -- Thank you.

Can I tell ya? Jaw dropped and I was like NO WAY!!!!! Played that song over and over and oh my gawd over again!!!! This is my JAM!!! Im an 80's kid and this just sends me.

This one hit me right in the feels lol. The lyrics to this song are so relatable. Please excuse me while I go bark at the moon

  • @captainsawbones
    @captainsawbones Před rokem +1

    This song (and its remix, bc they both sound amazing) have become honestly precious to me since they came out. I've lived my whole life in a dangerous, abusive situation that I finally was able to escape (it only took leaving everything behind and fleeing several states away) and i've been trying so hard to break through that lifetime of repressing and hiding who i really am just to survive. So now whenever i start to falter and feel insecure or that i need to go back to burying myself, i blast this song and the remix in my best set of headphones until i can dissolve those feelings away

  • @slepana-haizelney
    @slepana-haizelney Před 2 lety

    I love your music so much! I actually discovered your work pretty recently: around half a year ago I got Necessary Response - Spilling Blood in my recommendations, listened to the whole album and loved it so much... that I was scared to google the band, because all spotify had was one album from 2007 and I was genuinely so scared that the project is completely dead that I couldn't bring myself to do it. It was really special to me, idk how to explain it, but it spoke to me and carved a place in my heart.
    Imagine my joy, when I finally made myself search for more info and discovered Aesthetic Perfection. I absolutely love your music, old and new, I'm still in the process of discovering all there is, but so far, I love all of it. Thank you for keeping up the amazing work all these years!

    I'm still into your earlier heavier agrotech and electro stuff, but I'm definately feeling the darkwave here as something I've also morphed into as I've aged.
