The House By The Lake
I came across a software instrument in Logic Pro that I liked the sound of. It was a Chinese cello or something like that. I wanted to try and put a fairly high sound with it so I experimented with a capo on the 10th or 12th fret of my guitar and this was the resulting track!

LYRICS
In my dreams
there’s a house by a lake
leaves are all around
by the door there’s a rake
the crackle of the fire
seasoned logs on the hearth
Everything idilic
but you don’t know the half of it
as the sun turns bloody red
and they think about their beds
there’s something in the trees
something they can’t see
as the retire for the night
it’s a beautiful sight
tucked up in their sheets
safe they do believe

Is it a newer cover? I remember it was darker and more black-and-white. Likely because today I listen it in the morning, so it less spooky than in the dark :P hehe Rock on bro!
Same track Sam. :-)
Nearly October. Soon time for our spooky collab to make another appearance!
I want to know what the Chinese 'cello was, like a erhu or gehu? Is that what was in the trees? lol
Ah, I went to look and realised I was talking about the wrong track!! Off to change the description on ACR!
This is the synth I used for the sound on this one:
Ahh, I thought you meant that you were trying to recreate the instrument with the guitar.
I have a very old version of Logic, so not sure if it has that instrument, I'll get around to updating it at some point and make everything 64-bit (i.e. when I finish all the dozens of tracks I have that require 32-bit plugins)
