I wrote this yesterday afternoon.
Words in brackets will either be sung quickly in the same beat or pre-beat.
I had deeper plans for the two main characters in the song, but I'm worried going into depth would wreck the flow.
I'll answer any questions about the song.
"Extinction Of Innocence
[Verse 1]
Innocent bystanders
Surrounding the scene
Looking with eyes of glass
That soak it all in
Her face so calm and peaceful,
(Like) an angel fast asleep
(But a) crimson shadow silhouettes her
As she lays here on the street
No one could have helped her
She was too far gone
Though the signs were all so clear
That we knew it all along
[Chorus]
If we don’t care about tomorrow
How can we get through?
But you just cover up your ears
‘cause you know these words are true
By ignoring the pain of others
We just lock our paths in place
We must care about tomorrow
Just take a look into her face
[Verse 2]
No one sees the shadow
Hiding up above
The smoke still lingering
(At the) barrel of his only love
His face twisted with the rage
That pulses, burns and aches
The scars he has, not outside
From a trust that was misplaced
No one could have helped him
He was too far gone
Though the signs were all so clear
That we knew it all along
[Chorus]"
/end
Thanks for looking. Any comments would be appreciated. |
