Hi all,
Wrote this song over the weekend and I would appreciate feedback.
Also, I would like feedback on what genre this is - I can't figure that out myself!

COLD HARD SOUL
(Words by Jonathan Linton, Music by Jonathan Linton)
Was it a birth defect
Or did you learn
To make you blood run cold
Must be proud of all dislikes that you earn
From your stranglehold
I could never do what you do
And live with myself
Shaping shiftin’, which one’s really you
Don’t loose control
Of that cold hard soul
You can drop the act with me, I know
You’re a soul whore
Each climb leaves enemies below
Careful what you ask for
I could never do what you do
And live with myself
Shaping shiftin’, which one’s really you
Don’t loose control
Of that cold hard soul
SOLO
I could never do what you do
And live with myself
Shaping shiftin’, which one’s really you
Don’t loose control
Of that cold hard soul
Cold hard soul (ad lib to end)

I'll just add this: Johnathan - your stuff has been getting bett
I'll just add this: Johnathan - your stuff has been getting better and better both from a production standpoint, but also from a songwriting and performance standpoint with every post. I think you are really really close here - and by close I mean close to prime-time. If I put my producer's cap on there are a few small things that I'd point to for criticism and change.... but I really think you are super super close to leveling up.... your learning curve has been really impressive and inspiring. Keep going.

It's late 80's early 90's influenced Metal/Rock/Grunge -- Heavy Heavy AIC influence, with dashes of STP, Creed, and the last vestiges of Hair Metal. You've got a little early Soundgarden in there too. Are you playing all the guitars and doing everything here? These are sounding really good.
