It's been a good day. :P

 

"The Sexy Song" by Keaton :lol:

And welcome back Tyler! :lol:

Hey Anthony :nice:

<--- The dog says "Hi."

That dog is awesome Anthony :P

I found it on Twitter.

 

I'm that unoriginal. :P

At least it's funny ;)

Thanks! It puts a smile on my face every time I see it! :lol:

Hola everyone :P

 

Wrote this song just now.

 

Backstory: Girlfriend broke up with me blah blah..... But we had a party for cross country today and I realized that I still love her. Funny that the girl I like was there too. I'm so confused about lots of crap right now :confused:

 

Flanders St.

 

I hate to say this

But I still love you

I know I shouldn't anymore

And I really don't want to

 

But every time I see you

Every time I see those eyes

It hurts me

And i feel like I'm on the top of the world

 

I don't even understand why it's over

Why you ended it

Why you ended it

Maybe it had to happen for the good of both of us

But it wasn't good for me

 

Now whenever something goes wrong

I shut down

And I break down

I hate you

But I love you

Why?

Why?

 

I don't even understand why it's over

Why you ended it

Why you ended it

Maybe it had to happen for the good of both of us

But it wasn't good for me

 

Why does life have to be so confusing

Why does love have to be so hard

Why does life have to be so confusing

Why does love?-------

 

I don't even understand why it's over

Why you ended it

Why you ended it

Maybe it had to happen for the good of both of us

But I wasn't

It wasn't

It wasn't good for me

Hello Tyler, Anthony, James (and Keaton if you're still on). I'm Dylan for those of you who don't know.

Hi Dylan :)

 

That's some nice lyric-age there

^Thanks :nice:

 

And I'm putting Lyric-age in my personal dictionary :p

It really is nice. Hope you figure out yer love stuff, James. I'm crap with that stuff, what with me being forever alone and all.

Making up words is too much fun :D

Hello Dylan! :nice:

 

James, it's really strong and straightforward. It looks like it could have potential and I like it!

It really is nice. Hope you figure out yer love stuff, James. I'm crap with that stuff, what with me being forever alone and all.

 

Join the club!

I'm pretty bad with lyrics. Poetry is more my thing, lyrics seem too confined.

Thanks Guys :).

 

Yeah hopefully I'll sort all this stuff out :P

I'm pretty bad with lyrics. Poetry is more my thing, lyrics seem too confined.

 

I can deal with poetry that rhymes. If it doesn't I'm done :LOL:

That reminds me, I wrote a poem the other day. one sec, and I'll post it.

Here's my song for those interested in critiquing it.

 

 

"A New Day"

 

A moderately slow tempo... I'll get back to you on the BPM, but yeah...

 

This is the riff of the song. It's usually played without a capo.

 

E|---------------------------------------------------

B|--------3------------3------------3-------------3--

G|-----3------------3------------3-------------3-----

D|--3-------------------------3----------------------

A|---------------3-----------------------0-----------

E|------------------------------------------3--------

 

 

You can play the same riff with a capo on the first fret, but the open A string is excluded.

 

E|---------------------------------------------------

B|--------2------------2------------2-------------2--

G|-----2------------2------------2-------------2-----

D|--2-------------------------2----------------------

This is the chord progression throughout the entire song:

The chords presented in the lyrics are an example of how the chord progression works.

I lost a good friend.

A Fm

Someone I thought I'd never lose.

A E

Thought I was a good friend.

A Fm

Emotionally abused.

 

A E

We start a new day.

Yet we see the same old sun.

A E

On my mind was yesterday.

A Fm

Now we sing a new song.

 

Let's start the new day. (x4)

 

Who are we now?

Just strangers to each other.

What to do now?

We move on to another.

 

Let's start the new day.

Let's see the same old sun.

Remember yesterday

and sing a brand new song.

 

Let's start the new day. (x4)

 

lemme space the chords a bit first...

Ooh i love that! :awesome:

I tried to mess around with symbolism, and it turned out ok, I guess.

Storm

There's a different kind of light

in the storm, in the night

a midnight shell

cracked, a bell

rings as white splits the sky

in the storm

in the night

 

Ill post two of my songs

 

 

 

"Now You Know What a Firework can Do"

 

She runs through the urban jungle

At night in the heat

I ask what can I do?

she says it's up to you

 

I ask the fortune teller

what is my fate?

she won't reveal

not even something fake

 

I go back to my firework

it's then we go to the boardwalk

where she plays the mystery machines

where we talk, sometimes for hours

 

We go, barefoot, back to the cadillac

it's already midnight

we need to walk tall

and stay off those streets

 

I ask the fortune teller

what is my fate?

she won't reveal

not even something fake

 

we swing out heads to dawn

I take her back home and she explains

 

it's jersey where we stay

but I want to take the train away

 

I know she can't go Away

and leave me at bay

 

she's all dressed to withdraw

what she's considers mistakes

but she doesn't know

it's the mistakes that I take

 

I ask the fortune teller

what is my fate?

she won't reveal

not even something fake

 

Now she's gone

I don't know the right action

I guess this is it

all that's left of me is a fraction

 

A Promise can be Inconspicuous (Break Away)

 

Come together

only when I need repair

it's so naive

to be anchored by a stare

 

Just help me get down

New York conveys a hail

I can't seem to break away

when I look behind the veil

 

Sandy you can't take away a promise

you won't be able to break away

without you it can't resemble

to a future where you stay

 

but how did we get here?

why do I question your stare

Those promises represent

Something beyond repair

 

If your heart gives to a break

and your hands seem to shake

just think of a promise

those that form before the hurt

 

Sandy you can't take away a promise

you won't be able to break away

without you it can't resemble

to a future where you stay

 

Sandy if I only knew the answer

to the questions I ask myself

I will be able to respond

when you call for my help

 

They seem inconspicuous

but those promises can't be with us

I don't want to break away

but those promises can't be with us anyway

 

both of these are first versions and will be tinkered with.

 

They pretty long. I like story lyrics
