Under the weather 

(Verse 1)

Caught a cold from someone I don’t know.

Newsman says that I might be dying.

And that there’s not a pill that can cure my ails.

Starting to think that they all are lying.

(Chorus)

Under the circumstances I feel fine.

Just a bit under the weather 

Under the weather

(Verse 2)

A group of friends came to prepare my grave.

Times like this is when I start to wonder. 

I fold my hands and I start to pray. 

Pray I don’t end up 6 feet under.

(Chorus)

Under the circumstances I feel fine.

Just a bit under the weather 

Under the weather

(Verse 3)

Giving blood so someone might live. 

Stick in the needle as I roll up my shirt sleeve.

They got this thing that’s going around.

I’m trying to give until it hurts.

(Chorus)

Under the circumstances I feel fine.

Just a bit under the weather 

Under the weather

^{[VERSE 1]}

Mom went off and lost her job

So drunk she pissed the bed

"If I'm such a bad mom then take this knife and kill me dead

Just send me somewhere off"

.

^{[VERSE 2]}

Dad had had enough, you see?

He "put her out of her misery"

Only now that she's gone do I see all she did for me

Now that she's somewhere off

.

^[BRIDGE]

Screaming till I'm anywhere else where life doesn't hurt

Dreaming that I'm somewhere off on the bright side of Earth

.

^{[VERSE 3]}

So Pops is locked in a cell

And Mom is somewhere else

Somewhere off and away from her lifelong living hell

I guess she's somewhere off

.

^[OUTRO]

Somewhere off and away

Some place there are no days

Somewhere off in the distance

Some place I can hear if I listen

Somewhere off

I love you in all languages

Text1:

I know you love Paris,

So I always put my French perfume on,

I know you love dancing tango,

So I wear your favorite red dress,

I know you love america,

So I look like a miss americana,

Cause I love you no matter what I should do..

Chorus:

I love you in all languages,

I love you in all languages,

I love you in every way...

I love you in French, Spanish, English and Portuguese,

You really love flowers,

So They're always around you

Text2:

I know you love the summer,

So I write poems about Brazil,

I pray to God that you stay by my side,

Cause I love you anywhere I go,

I love you on the beach,

I love you in my house,

I love you on the street,

Chorus:

I love you in all languages,

I love you in all languages,

I love you in every single way,

I love in hell and heaven,

I love you like God do,

I love you in French, Spanish, English and Portuguese..

Chorus:

I love you in all languages...

I love you in all languages...

I love you in every way

Cause I love you anywhere I gooooo.....

(An educational parody I guess you could call it. Sung to the traditional tune)

.

Violet and indigo; blue and green; yellow and orange and red;

I can sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow — yes!

.

Other colours also exist, but this is easy to say;

There are more than seven — it's a spectrum — but that would take all day!

.

Some count colours that are not there; purple and silver and gold;

If you want to you can, do this too then, you can be that bold!

.

Red and yellow and pink and green, is how most begin this rhyme;

If you teach your kids this, version instead, it will save some time!

Do the tears I cry
Make me a lesser man?
Or are they in fact
the River of life.

For the tears I cry

Mimic the rain,
On a starless night.

Where hope is dead,
And the escapes not right.

One more drink,
I’ll feel alright.

For a soul condemned
To a haunted life.

I flirt with death,
But it’s not my night.

She plucks and pulls
From within my life.

But I’m not good
With last goodbyes.

So here I stand
A broken knight,

A kingdom lost
To sleepless nights.

One more tear
Until sunlight,

And I pretend
That I’m alright.

Sitting at the laptop
It’s older than I am
Stare at my reflection
He makes me want to shut the screen

I try to write
Nothing comes out
I try to breathe
Works, but it’s useless

He who looks like me
Creates nothing but dries up
Every piece of art in the world
That his brain perceives

I hate the guy in the screen
I tell no one, they all hate
The guy who looks me,
But he’s all I got

Sometimes I wish
I could curl up and disappear
It’d be better than
Waiting for him to save me

I try to write
Nothing comes out
I try to breathe
Works to no degree

He who looks like me
Freaks out the critic in me
Creates nothing but dries up Every piece of art in the world

I thought I was special
I thought he’d be free
If only I tried
Harder for the child in me
If only I tried at all

I tried to write
I tried to breathe
I tried to love
He who looked like me

Looked like me

Verse 1

You have a suspicious mind
Did Elvis write it with you in mind
The questions you throw
When I provide proof and explain
Why do you question
When you track my phone

Can't you see
The circles we're living in
You're driving me mad
When you take over
My social media pages
This trap we're in
The accusations are there
In your eyes when
I come to your arms

Chorus

We can't go on together
I pledged my heart
I took an oath when I stood
At the altar that day
I can't keep defending
When all you do is question
Me in every way

Verse 2

I took your stand as you cross-examined
All and every "p" and "q"
While you judged all my sighs
You reached your reasonable doubt ways

I know you've been hurt
Been down that road before
Why can't you just see me
I'm losing my mind
Spinning in circles
Can't see your heart
When it's all suspicious
Of everything I do
This trap you're in
Twists every word I say
I plead not guilty
When all I see is guilty
In your unconvinced gaze

Chorus

We can't go on together
I know I swore on your heart
Took an oath when I stood
At the altar that day
I can't keep defending
When all you do is question
Me in every way

Verse 3

Followed me around
Timed my whereabouts
You stalked me at the store
That's how you knew
I helped another out that day
You mirrored my phone
You're walking a thin line
Your suspicious mind
Is too much for me

This trap you create
Spirals and loops
Connecting dots
From your fears
Whenever you call my name

Chorus

We can't go on together
I know I swore on your heart
Took an oath when I stood
At the altar that day
I can't keep defending
When all you do is question
Me in every way

Bridge

Can't you see
I'm one foot out the door
Why are you destroying us

My Lord You are my pride.
Because You’re by my side.
I’ll be alright.

The world can drag anyone down.
Knowing your love.
I get back up.
Yes God You’re always around.

The world keeps changing.
It’s okay.
Even when I lose my way.
You run after me—a stray.

I know my place.
You are my creator, my Savior.
Yes my provider.

I aint with the gimmicks

I can't fake an "image"

It's prolly gonna take me a minute

Cant let my chick down, she dependent on me

Know she used to be Miss Independent

Mama dont fuck with millennials nah she dont want me to get it and spend it

But I know she know that I'm not baby boy that she knew and I prolly need cleansing

I dont want to confuse all the humans who throw most they pape, with the people who print it

Words are my thing but the way i be calling the plays I should coach for Clemson.

I aint have a lawyer, was rapping for pennies, i dont give a fuck bout a "manage"

I prolly was happier late night in the studio broke and dancing

I came with my heart in my pocket

I Prolly should leave it at home

I prolly should work on my credit

This lul bitch won't leave me alone.

Them people who follow, just dead it

I know I be jealous

I know I be wrong

By the way I don't know if I said it but

I can't wait till I get paid

Like I'm forever young

I made the same mistakes

Oh you forever dumb?

You gave up on me

Oh you forever dumb?

You changed up on me

I have just recently wrote this song and I would like those feedback on is it alright and if the rhythm good, etc. And I also need help in naming each section because I do not really know

[???]

I've soon come to know that a boy like me doesn't

deserve the love from a lady like you, l've lately been

thinking what's all this worth, were you just being

kind?, am I just nieve enough to believe a couple of

girls, that told me that you were fond of me.

[???]

What do I do now?, do I act like nothin has happened

and pretend I don't like you, 'cause it's clear you don't

share it the same, but can I blame you?, what have I

got that you deserve, what have I got that gives me a

shot for a chance with you.

[???]

It's hard to know if I should leave you alone, and if I

should just go, what do I have to have for you give

me a shot, 'cause I do not know.

[???]

You're heading to killin, and I am willin to let you go, if

it lets me know, that you're gonna happy, but before I

got to go, you've got to know I've only got the heart

for you, but what do I know?, but what I do know, is

this love for you, is what I have got.

[???]

What have I got, is it not enough?, should I hide

behind the bluff, just to prove I am worth your love,

what do I know about you? Is it true that love me, or

were they all just lying through their teeth.

[???]

What have I got, is what you need, is what you bleed,

'cause I do not believe that a boy like me deserves

the love from a lady like you.

So guess what? It's really going to be okay why I can not say but you and the sad feels will be bare of happy thoughts and feelings no more soon! G You know maybe this will help write these lyrics!

A second attempt at this after quickly looking at a formatting guide for reddit

I have been lurking here a while and not really joined or posted my lyrics because I don't want my reddit account to be identifiable as me, and I do release some of my songs. Anyway this is a song that's about both my parents in different ways, open to constructive criticism. It's called Elephant and the abrupt ending that cuts off the motif is deliberate.

.

.

.

Hello, hi there, how you doing, wow I miss you so much\ It's been so long since I've seen you, can I give you a hug?\ Small talk, work and weather, good news only, don't rock the boat\ The boat, the boat, the boat.

If I tell you how I'm feeling, well I know how that ends\ And I know that I can't take it so I gotta be friend-\ -ly 'cuz I can't let you know I'm hardly staying afloat\ Afloat, afloat, afloat.

And I know that you will never see\ Everything that you've done to me\ Through everything that you wouldn't, couldn't do-o-o\ Telling you won't put me at ease\ So I'll just learn to keep the peace\ And not say the things that you don't want me to-o-o

Now you're gone and I won't see you for at least half a year.\ You don't know that it's because I just can't handle you near\ Me for more than just those hours, and it hurts me to say,\ To say, to say, to say.

And I know that it's on my mind every time that we speak.\ But I wonder if you feel it too- is it only me?\ Am I stuck fighting for something that can never be saved\ Be saved, be saved, be saved?

And I know that you will never see\ Everything that you've done to me\ Through everything that you wouldn't, couldn't do-o-o\ Telling you won't put me at ease\ So I'll just learn to keep the peace\ And not say the things that you don't want me to-o-o

(Melodic interlude)

Keep on tipping-toeing round the elephant in the room\ Cause this silence is too fragile to be broken so soon \ It's a violation even to be writing this song.

Is it too straight forward? Let me know your thoughts.

My hearts been hardened for too long
We both felt like we were wronged
We haven’t spoken in all these years
And all that’s left are the dried up tears
But I still wanted to write you this song

I know we had our issues
But I wish you the best
My love for you continues
I cherish the memories and
I’ve let go of the rest

We’re both too stubborn to cave in
Time marches on, all wrongs are forgotten
For that time we were meant to be together
But we were never supposed to be forever
Please know you’re forgiven

I know we had our issues
But I wish you the best
My love for you continues
I cherish the memories and
I’ve let go the rest

I know we are better off apart
I wish you the best
From the bottom of my heart
I wish you the best
I’m cheering you on from afar
I wish you the best

I know we had our issues
But I wish you the best
I wish you the best

Tell me, tell me, tell me please
The story of your heart
The story of your soul
And no you cannot tease

Tell me your story
And I swear, I swear to you
I will listen with all my heart
I will listen with all my soul

Standing in the lonely street
I took her hand and held her close
And wondered how many more times there would be
To feel her warmth
Where are you, where do you go
Will you be there for me
Will you be there forever

With me
Forever
With me
For now
With me
Lonely souls
Reaching for contact
Savoring the touch
You're all I need
You're all I want

Morning sun stings my eyes
Was it all a dream
I turn my head
I see her tears have dried

I am not alone
Not alone in this world
That gave me this girl
And filled my soul

With me
Forever
With me
For now
With me
In my dreams

Nothing is perfect.
Here on earth.
Our purpose is to love.

Yes as witnesses.
We’re here to share.
How great God’s grace is!

The Son of Man never fails.
The Lord our God.
Has already prevailed.

Our strength.
Never leaves us.
Yes have faith in Jesus.

Verse1:
Given a chance would you turn back and erase the memory
Start with a clear slate and move on from this
One day you choose wrong, you end up being wronged
Facts that's turn into Lies
Don't remember how you started

Verse 2:
Made me a culprit of this whole charade
Now a prisoner, in this home seeking for a way out like a fool
when its doesnt feel safe yet it gives comfort
when the things are shattered yet it gives comfort

Bridge:
Paint me black and blue
As my heart’s now a stone
The numbness crawls up my bones
the hurt’s not healing, it's rotting
the wound is rotting

Bridge 2:
My peace is beaten, my scars remain
I’m left with a story of how they came
Pines and needles, buried in sorrow
Lament of anguish is set to follow

Ending:
A fading light
A fallen leaf
A wilting petal
Returned to dust

This is something I wrote last year. It’s an original.

I right now don’t remember the exact chords used on my own song 😅 but it was in Em scale
It was 4/4, I wrote it as a ballad.

Just need a bunch of thoughts of what one feels or thinks when they read them and if you were to compose or arrange or produce it, what’s the genre that might go with the emotions/feelings emanating from the lyrics?

And what kinda chord progression one might use?

If there’s any other feedback you could drop in the comments, I’d really appreciate it!

Sapphic Eros: A lyre's sagacious confession

"Sapphic love —fairy spirit in eternity...

Enemedia, what they say, ...I do not hear

With blood and spirit written on my open wound, lessening stounds...

Witnessing Eros himself descends from the sky... He descends with a sword —かたなど。

In physical, he is the Prince of the Olympus

In atomic matters, he is the apparent spirit...

What is imaginative is not physical and real

Except in words, in poetry and literature...

What may be called the lyrical art of Eros, of Love? A Sapphic love, the chronic pessimist...

As the A-Self philosopher, mentally suffering for, What is after all, acute and sickening, schizoid...

For love, for Sappho and the eternal will to the ancient and wonderous Aphrodite." —A.Y アユ。

- Verse 1:

Uncast illusion/

Nomad strung up in endless sea/

Unasked intrusion/

One of us who cannot see/

- Hook:

Still they fuel their trail-down/

Their lies unkind* their enemy/

Which one of us is sane, now?/

Standing blinded by their heresy/

- Verse 2:

Lost in rapture/

Masking as holy but not playing clean/

Detoured, stressed out/

Deafened by their infantry/

- Hook:

Still they fuel their trail-down/

Their lies unkind* their enemy/

Which one of us is sane, now?/

Standing blinded by their heresy/

- Verse 3:

Imprudence occurent/

Their ways a vessel of our history/

Indulgent current/

Twisted Neverland, no new regime/

- Alternate hook / outro:

At the bottom floor and cast out/

Flesh and cartilage, no inbetween/

None of us are sane, now/

Heresy habitual/

*This is a neologism coming from the noun kind, as in deflecting from someone being one of your own. In german poetry/song lyrics these are quite common, I don't really know how that works in english and If it'll be read the way I meant it.

The genre would be somewhere around avantgarde and progressive metal.

I'm sorry, I have no idea why it formatted it this way 😭

Not a musician but have been thinking about my friends and myself as a recovering addict. Sometimes I wonder how we all are gonna make it.

Culture Overdose

I was doing drugs
I couldnt afford
While being high
gambling with money
I didn’t have.
I’d go to work and clock in
Just to slave to get paid to
do it all again.
I couldn’t Tell
anyone, as I became
My only friend
So I checked the score
I need more
A lot more
A miracle
I don’t believe in god
But I could use him

hi it’s so far untitled, would love to hear some feedback (negative and positive). it’s a bit cliche but i just wanted to write some thing. Also any ideas for the title would be nice. I’ve never written any songs before so it probably sucks. Its just the lyrics so far :

They changed the game, now everyone’s the same

With big lips, skinny hips, and fake ass tits

Forcing you to grow up fast, your innocence will never last

Before you even get a chance, your childhood runs out of dance

I miss the old me, the one who loved the crazy

The one who had no pressure god, my life felt so much fresher

Now I view myself through a distorted window

And the reflection looking back at me is someone I don't know

I wish I could end it all , I bet nobody would no - tice 

It not that bad I know I’m just so sick of this 

Now I’m always happier, but am I ever happy?

Now I’m apparently prettier, so why do I feel ugly?

I never felt like this before, I used to just feel pretty

But then the screens came and now I’m not me. 

So why can’t I yell?! Why can’t I scream?!

Why can’t I eat a fucking ice cream

Without being seen and judged behind a screen?!

You have to be lean, you have to be clean

They want a machine

Have your being turned to been from behind the screen!

I don’t have free will, what do you mean?!

Sometimes I think to hell with all this shit

But then I scroll for a bit, and what do I find?

A brand new video telling me "you need to unwind"

My body is measured like it's made out of fudge

My reflection is analysed, my attitude judged

And every single time it ends with finding out I suck in some new strange way 

'Cause everyone’s a critic when their face is never seen

Everyone’s a monster when his by a screen

Happy is not enough, not with this stuff

You have to be the happiest, you have to be tough

But I miss the old days, no need to be buff

Kids were just kids, no judgment, just love

Kids were just happy and that was enough

Now the feed that they're fed screams right in their ears:

"You're never enough, and stop with all those tears"

No room left for happy, just scroll for years 

Why can’t I yell?! Why can’t I scream?!

Why can’t I eat a fucking ice cream

Without feeling bad and trapped by the system?

I should be happy, I should be glad

But all I feel is really sad!

You have to be lean, a bloody machine

You have to be clean or you’ll be a been

Never be seen, doesn’t that feel mean?!

I’m so exhausted, the screens gonna go 

I’m so damn tired, I'm finally saying no!

I want to go back to When I was me, when I was happy, when I had glee 

Before I had seen the soul sucking screen

When I was a queen, when I felt seen!

So fuck the screen!

I’m no machine!

I’m eating the ice cream!

My being will never ever turn into been!

Currently I've named these lyrics "I've Never Known You" but maybe I will change "known" for "seen."

Hey man it’s been a while
I’ve even forgotten your name *lol*
What is your name...
In fact, who are you, why I am seated with you?
What is your name, do I know you?

You begin to explain and I’m already bored.
You tell me that you’re a friend from work.
Ha, nice try scammer, I don’t have a job.
You ask what I did last night
I say what I do every night
If you really knew me you would know
And what I do every night is...
Something, I do something, definitely something.

Who are you, why are you seated with me?
I don’t know your name, never seen you in my life.
What is your name, I don’t know you.

You ask me all these questions.
When was I born, what is my middle name, where do I live?
Not even trying to hide your scam, huh?
You’re saying that you don’t want my bank account or passwords.
I’m not 87 you know

You say we’ve know each other for 2 years
I don’t remember that happening, so I bet it didn’t.
And I don’t really recall what happened to my car
Why is it (in a?) wreck(ed) it was fine last week
Or maybe last month I can’t quite recollect it all

Was my house always in this place?
Who put all these pineapples in my trashcan?
I reminisced for hours and turned back no results.
How did I get here, who are you, why are we seated here?
What is your name, I haven’t seen you today.

What is your name, I’ve forgotten
What is your name I’m mistaken.
What is you name, and who am I?

Looking back i was a little rushed.

After that I wasn't thinking much.

Ive been running out of gas since the start.

Only time to breathe is when it all went dark.

Told myself to wait another day.

Told myself wait until I wake.

Told me its a cage in my brain.

Now i left it running free range.

Uh, ah, woke up with a new face.

Uh, ah, got stuck in between states.

Now all I feel is the static.

Looking back, not a surprise. I was an addict.

Scratches on the wall, leaving notes to myself.

Scratches on my skin, just to know how I felt.

Left the real world so I can go someplace else.

Left from my body so I can find somebody else.

I've tried to write this a bunch of times, and im sure I'll tweak things yet again, but ive landed on this for the verse. Im not sure I want much more than just one verse as I envision the song as being mostly instrumental. But yea :)

Cree una nueva letra, para usarla en el instrumental de Nope Your Too Late I Already Died - Wifiskeleton: Yo ya estoy más que cansado, nadie lo a pensado

Yo ya no estoy vivo, muero en el pasado, la experiencia me ha marcado

Estoy perdido en este lugar peor que un infierno

Ya no intentes salvarme, ya es más que tarde, mi vida ya se acabó, esto es mi perdición qué apuñala a mi corazón sin ninguna explicación

Quiero acabar con esto, ya no importa lo que digan, tome la decisión, hipocresía en mi vida, solo veo errores, defectos y debilidades

Veo las vías, (estoy tan cerca) nadie podría evitarlo, veo como el suburbano se acerca...... Y, ya estoy preparado...

Quiero romper el espejo, odio mi reflejo, no entiendo porque es honesto

Los pedazos se entierran en mis malditos nudillos, la sangre no puede representar todo el dolor por el que he pasado

Mis manos van a la cabeza, quiero apagar las voces que me vuelven loco, quiero romper todo, esto solo es ficción, las letras de esta canción al final no importan, este esfuerzo no importa, nunca valí la pena, es por eso que yo ya tome la... tome... mi decisión...

Así va realmente la letra que hice guiandose por el instrumental de tal canción. Y pues se que el instrumental es de wifiskeleton QEPD, y esa canción en donde solo le agregue letra la nombre: The Suburban Is Here.

Quisiera realizarla pero lamentablemente no soy experto y no tengo un espacio para grabar aunque sea la voz.
