Taking inspiration from Bernard's fantastic song, "Meter" I've decided to post a song of my own. Just simply click the link and the "Download" button on the link and it will download directly onto your itunes or windows media player.
(And I KNOW I'm not the best singer, im just beginning to experiment with song writing a lot more lately).
Lyrics:
I'm gonna rest my head a little bit
on this, pillow over here,
and if I see your face right next to mine
I`ll be sure to say hi
And when the Christians accept everyone
instead of, everyone except,
Oh God, it`ll be the day
that they speak of, in fiction.
I`m gonna drink away my sorrows,
into this, black pit of my mind
and if you`re telling me the honest truth
then I`ll promise to stay kind
And if we ever live to see the day
when the angels fall from the sky
Well if you`re standing right here next to me
then I, I`d be glad to die
Happy and proud
Happy and loud
Unheard and unseen
It`s the same old song
The same old scene
Happy and Free
Because I`m a beggar
I`m a liar
and I`m a thief
stealing hearts since 1993
but I,
Don`t have a clue about,
who I am,
Or who I`m gonna be
...
I guess I`ll just wait and see.
...
I`m gonna` rest my head a little bit
on this pillow over here.

I must say you play guitar really well!! I loved the sound of this very much.
Unfortunately, and I feel bad for saying this, I felt like your lyrics were lacking the punch that your writing normally has. I felt like a lot of the time they were cliche, such as in the second and third verses, particularly the third. Maybe it's just because I'm so used to your writing being mindblowing.
I like the first/last two lines though! And the whole end part of the song from "Because I'm a beggar" onward was really nice. I would just strengthen the middle section up a bit, tell what you're trying to say in a less conventional way. So either use abstract metaphors that no one's ever heard before instead of mentions of angels and bashing Christians, or make it super specific with tiny gritty high-realism details and remove all abstractness to make it more relatable. I think that's what I liked about the first/last 2 lines, is because it was such a real, honest thing to do/say in lyrics.
Anyway, no one else is commenting so I can't say whether or not they feel the same as me or if I'm crazy.
Oh and also I just think it's awesome that we both posted sound pieces on the same day :) we're starting up with the voice of Heart Rape! So high five on that!
