Pistas que Pumpkin Tide (Gourdian Sea Version) referencia:

• Pumpkin Tide by Michael Guy Bowman

Letra:

Destroy your desk; it's useless now
Build yourself a fort to hide
Close your eyes and crawl inside
You're sailing on the pumpkin tide

The ship you're on is yours alone
The wind will push your sweet, sweet ride
But this foreign wave just appearified
You're sailing on the pumpkin tide

Focus on the sound of my voice
You are under my control
Obey my will or I'll bury you alive
And it's you who'll dig your own damned hole

Forget your friends, what good are they?
Suckers filled with words that chide
Heads green with envy but orange with pride
Sailing on that pumpkin tide

Listen to their whispering voice
The current where the pumpkins roam
You never saw a thing
Never saw the thing you think you saw
Just shadows looking for a home

The door into your heart is locked
It's gun is buried in your mind
Too heavy to carry, but too huge to leave behind
Without it you would surely die

But even that's just another lie
Sailing on the pumpkin tide

Ucklin:

The tambourine sound is actually a belly dancing belt with bangles... and yes, I did wear it and dance. This is an update to the version of Pumpkin Tide that I did on my iPad when I was in the hospital, recovering from my bone marrow transplant. I took some comfort in the way that the lyrics seemed to fit my experience leaving school for my treatment and being thrust into an unwanted "adventure." I wanted to keep this version pretty simple, so it's almost entirely just multitracked recordings of my acoustic instruments. I did add a touch of phased and flanged reverb because I wanted it to feel like a live performance on another world.

A remake of my old piece from 2013. I gave it a proper background that compliments the song. Peaceful but a bit broken up and in the process of healing.
