This came about because of a lot of the same shit being thought about again yesterday. It's different, and vocally, it has a lot more emotion in it than a lot of lyrics I've written. The title is "Life, Not So", and I hope some of you find it interesting...


"Life, Not So"

I drive a nice car...
I have a nice flow of green, coming to me.

Yeah, I'm livin' the life,
you might say.

-A place of my own.
-A million and one friends, kind, but in envy,

'cause I'm livin' the life.
(change in music, and change to a slower tempo, envisioned, along with momentary deep humming)

I could pretend all these things,
if I wanted a harder
daily slap to the face.
It leaves me with this steady, ongoing sting,
and I'm much more...,
though I live less.
No, I know I'm not limbless,
but I feel like an amputee...

(Short Interlude, envisioned.)

(Chorus):
-And real life is a fantasy.
I'm in life, but it's life not so sweet.
This brutal fantasy
shows life, not so..., yet at all.

(Moderately Long Interlude, envisioned.)

(within Parenthesis = background vox, envisioned)
I'm livin' the life
(that I, designed.)
I'm livin' the life
(that I, designed.)
I'm livin' the life
(that I, designed blind.)
I'm...
livin' the life.
<7x>: -Livin' the life.
-Paying the price of blind design.

EnD


If ya' got any words on this, leave 'em. I think I have one more to post, that I forgot about recently, but I must go check. Heheh... Later, everyone! Very Happy

tbh, from what i've seen this is not your best work. however it is still a very good piece(in my opinion). i wait with baited breath on hearing your songs. Razz

This is another case of it being better vocalized. Vocally, I'd say I like this one a lot, as compared to a lot of the stuff I've written. If I can ever get somethin' together and record some stuff, I'll definitely post it on here. Thanks for the reply. Later!
