I wrote this song in 2012 and have just arranged it using Band In A Box and recorded it in Sonar.  I ran a Fiddle and a Pedal Steel guitar though Guitar Rig 5 (separate instances and pre-sets).  All comments are welcome.
 
Aleigha (3-12-2012)
 
Temptation the sun, redemption the moon, abstinence smoke, desire the flame
A warm summer wind rushing through June, fades into a whisper that carries your name
Aleigha
Curses abide on the tip of your tongue, saturates your mouth like sweet sugarcane
Distrust and suspense keep you on the run, regret just like thunder, forgiveness like pain
Aleigha
Death is a chamber, sleep a red rose, desperation the chorus, rage the refrain
Madness your brother in a lunatic pose, delusion your lover, you spinster, you dame
Aleigha
Faith is a key, doubt is a trap, mercy is tender, forgiveness the same
Kindness the thing you can never take back, 
Let love be the vessel that carries your name

Yes, I knew her too
Loved the rhythm guitar. Was that you or BiaB? Nicely done.

Sounds nice. Maybe duck the guitar just a hair with the vocal so the vocal sits up just a bit.

The mix comes across reasonably well here though the guitar could do with being backed off a bit under the vocal.

Nice tune, I'd say very good vocals, I'd like them up a bit in the mix, I think the acoustic guitar panning moves overwhelm them a little.
 
If you listen to your big cymbals toward the end, are they sounding just a tad compressed/flangey? I dunno.
 
Other than those little things, I'd say cool song and nice mix.

Great stuff - really nice song and great voice. Mix is good but as a couple of people said, the vocal get's trodden on a couple of times.
