Why do you like to write songs: Well, I don't have much experience writing songs, but I am always making up my own lyrics in my head...I've just never written them down before. It seems really inspirational, though! I should really try - that's why I joined this club.

Should I write my first song for this club? I'll go ahead and do it - the contest you have looks so cool, so I will go ahead and enter while I'm at it. Sorry its sorta gloomy...I have to think of something happier later!

My Road:

I know when it's gettin' rough,
When the times are tough
With the ones you love

Well I know when it's gettin' bad,
When the life you had
has turned down the wrong path, yeah.

And no kiddin' its a rocky road
But I'll stay my course
Keep on goin'
Despite all the twists and turns
Oh the twists and turns, yeah

Well I knew if I had my way
That you'd be here today
And you'd be here to stay
But no way, you're not here with me
"That's just life," I say
And I sure believe it, yeah

And no kiddin' it's a rocky road
But I'll stay my course
Keep on goin'
Despite all the twists and turns

The road is life;
it's bumpy it's hard
You may get lost,
So lost you'd think you'll never return
But what's lost can still be found
As surely as the world spins 'round

Wow, thanks for joining Lauren and that's a wonderful song.You will have so much fun here.

Thanks Hulie! you were the insperation for me trying this out! From your posts in the 80's Rock Fourm!


I hope it's okay if i post a song in the first of my posts here!


This is a poem i had written a while ago and tweeked it into kinda song-ish format...i actually like it better now than in it's original form!


Ghostly Shadows


Ghostly shadows follow me around.
Negative thoughts arrive in my mind
Cutting me off from life until I am invisible

Time passes by my life along with it
Scenes dance though my memory
effortlessly creating a sad, lullaby that is my fate.

Another day goes by, turning into years
Confidence still lacking, many hills ahead to climb
Tormenting my soul.

Ghostly shadows follow me around.
Negative thoughts arrive in my mind
Cutting me off from life until I am invisible

Here in reality I envy others;
If I could only borrow just a little strength
Driving my own courage into my heart

Trapped in my own silent world
Edging ever closer only to have the ground fall away from my feet
Ripping away the courage I had ordered up.

Dreadful work I must begin to solidify
The ghostly shadows that follow me around
Sacrificing negative thoughts that arrive in my mind
Invisibility ends with the embrace of life


Inspiration:

this is basiclly a song about me and trying to find my confidence...it was originally an acrostic poem written for a contest with the title Hit The Ground, but i modified it before posting it here, i think it's much better now then before.



AWESOME!




ah, that's why i write poems, to "get things out"



cool!

Hey Wilson! I am glad you finally joined. I write songs to get things out too.

Welcome to the club maggalina!

Writing has helped me so much as far as "expression" goes. sometimes it's the only way for me to deal with things or get my thoughts in order, but it's not always poem/song form that does that.

Wrting is a great way to express your self writing of any form, When I was mad I used to get my diary and write how mad I was, but when I'm mad you can't read my handwriting so I don't even know what I wrote, it just looks like a lot of scribbles but it halped me vent

Just so everyone knows, muzic is co-owner with me, so she has just as much authority and contribution to this club as I do.

Same with me! Whenever something happens to me, I write a song about it.

I am going to go off soon. We need to drop my mom off at her office. Bye!

Yeah, I know. Whenever you say something funny, I will have to say lol LOL! Don't worry, we aren't picking on you. This club has a lot of inside jokes. Including our motto create, share, perform". It fits and stuff but people don't know what you're talking about until they see the club.

Thank you, i'm glad you liked it. most of my songs are going to be slightly poem like since that's the mode i am more familiar with.

Wrting is a great way to express your self writing of any form, When I was mad I used to get my diary and write how mad I was, but when I'm mad you can't read my handwriting so I don't even know what I wrote, it just looks like a lot of scribbles but it halped me vent

oh, yes, venting is good. writing helps me vent and sort things out too, but i already said that didn't i?

Though joining this club made me write another 'song' about something that happened to me around a month ago... i'm going to go get it and post it now.

I call this piece: Silence

Shivers plague me phone in hand your number again the plan
Your voice in my ear, the truth I want to hear. Will you speak my dear?
Two days I wait for your call, not even a whisper silence bared it all.
Leading me to end it all

I seem the lamb
Except in a jam
The wolf I surely am

You lifted me higher than any before you
Feelings were new an felt true, I loved you
Then a voice in my ear, brought to life my half felt fear

I seem the lamb
Except in a jam
The wolf I surely am

Evidence lay before me, the fog finally cleared
After half a year I knew your fear – as silent as the grave

I became the wolf
You were the lamb
There was no courage in the man

Inspiration: this is being betrayed by someone you cared about. Yeah, really don't want to go into too many details, but it is baised on my life.

Wow, that's a great song. I know how you feel. I have been betrayed by someone else too.
