GOING HOME (ALL ALONE)

I came for a weekend
You were nowhere to be found
Where did you go?
I asked all your neighbors
Had they seen you round
They said no

It never crossed my mind
That maybe you were hiding
The phone calls never made
And the letters you weren't writing
You said you'd think it out
But you were all through deciding
I'm going home all alone

I walked into your life, girl
And turned your whole world upside down
And turned it around
I Can't say that I blame you
For stealing away when I'm in town

It never crossed my mind
That maybe you were hiding
The phone calls never made
And the letters you weren't writing
You said you'd think it out
But you were all through deciding
I'm going home all alone

I stood on the mountain
And I looked out on the town
I don't know
I guess it's time to realize
I can't be the one any more

It never crossed my mind
That maybe you were hiding
The phone calls never made
And the letters you weren't writing
You said you'd think it out
But you were all through deciding
I'm going home all alone

Beginnings for two songs:


Chromatography of Kaleidoscope Corn

The doctors, now, they once peeked in
With their machines through my head at my brain
And all they came up with,
Was an optical illusion.

Maybe, now that I think about it,
Maybe it does explain,
Why everywhere I go,
I'm always filled with confusion.


Funeral Scene

And in came the funeral man, and he asked,
"Who's the dead one in here?"
And the people, they just kept sitting there
Like they didn't even care
One couldn't tell the person that had died
Was one that they had ever met in their lives,
Much less held them dear
The funeral man got uneasy and filled with fear
As he stared at the people sitting there,
Who strongly resembled corpses themselves
Each one was as lifeless and indifferent as everybody else
Present there.

I'm in a band that performs all original music, and I'm one of two songwriters. So far we've completed over 30 songs, but my personal favorite has been one we wrote just for fun. It's titled 'I Just Can't Sneeze (Around You'


My sinuses clear whenever you're near
I just can't sneeze around you
All the allergens fade; I've really got it made
I just can't sneeze around you 

Anytime you come by
My nostrils are dry
It's the nicest thing about you
I just can't sneeze around you

If we're together all day I throw my tissues away
I just can't sneeze around you
I don't need no pills because I've got no ills!
I just can't sneeze around you 

Anytime you come by
My nostrils are dry
It's the nicest thing about you
I just can't sneeze around you 

But then anytime you're gone
Those pesky sniffles come along
Baby I wish that you would see
You're more than just Tylenol to me 

------ Solo!! -------

Anytime you come by
My nostrils are dry
It's the nicest thing about you
I just can't sneeze, I just can't sneeze
Around you!

Lol, I like that.

I've lately been beating myself up over my lyrics being dull. I think I'm much too literal. Here's my favourite lyrics of mine though. They were changed recently to remove some references to my shift in religion, which I've since gotten past. Mostly it's a metaphor for how life will make things look like their about to get better, and then you realise nothing ever really changed. The songs is a kinda straight-forward little rocker with an upbeat tempo. And here are the lyrics:

"Sugar Pill"

I am on the edge
Of stumbling and dropping my pledge
Oh, am I doing well?
Or am I en route to Hell?

'Cause my heart's been scarred
Contentedness has fought so hard
I pondered up a Christmas card
And lost it to the thought
It seems as though depression has me bought

And I've had my fill
Of choking on your sugar pill
Oh Lord, what does it take to have your hand?
And while I'm ill
From meditating broken will
My sanity can hardly take a stand
And I'm choking on your sugar pill again

I am losing sleep
I'm kept awake by pain and grief
Oh, will I have my day?
Or is my trophy made of clay?

'Cause your placebo
Has me thinking you're my home
Yet remains terrain to roam
Till I stumble on some truth
All my hopes and dreams are all that lend to proof

And I've had my fill
Of choking on your sugar pill
Oh Honey, take this load off of my back
And while I'm ill
From meditating broken will
It seems as if my mould may never crack
And your sugar pill has gotten me off track

(Solo, repeat chorus 1)

...I never noticed how most of those stanzas had an odd number of lines until now. o0

I've done verse for this song but it's not overly good

Here is chorus

Use Me,
Lose Me,
Just Dont Abuse Me,
Cause Baby I'm the only one who gets you going

I am in the processes of completing the lyrics to a song. All verses and everything is complete, but I want the opinion of some people I know before posting it here.
