    Songwriting! Empty Songwriting!

    Post  GlassMan-RV Fri Aug 21, 2009 10:18 pm

    I write songs in my free time. Tell me what you think of this one.

    I'm just walking down the street
    The street I used to own.
    But now it's empty
    like my heart
    and it belongs to someone else.

    Just walking down memory lane
    Got my left hand on the cane
    And my right one holds
    The imaginary girl
    That I fell so in love with.

    And what do I say?
    And what do I do?
    She's looking at me, but I can't look back.
    And nobody knows.
    And nobody cares.
    She's looking at me, but I just can't talk back.

    (CHORUS)
    Hey.
    How're you doing?
    Nothing Much.
    I lost my touch
    A long long time ago.
    Hey.
    How're you feeling?
    Nothing's Up.
    My time is almost up.

    Or maybe I should just shut up.
    (END CHORUS)

    I'm just walking down the street
    The street I used to know.
    But now it's empty
    like my soul
    And I don't live here anymore.

    Just walking down memory lane
    Got my left hand on the cane
    But I can't hold her
    The imaginary girl
    That I fell so in love with.

    And what do I say?
    And what do I do?
    She's looking at me, but I just can't look back.
    And nobody knows.
    And nobody cares.
    She's not angry, but I still feel so ill.

    (CHORUS II)
    Hey.
    How're you doing?
    Nothing Much.
    I lost my touch
    A long long time ago.
    Hey.
    What're you wearing?
    Nothing's Up.
    My question is null and void.
    Hey.
    How're you doing?
    Nothing Much, you say
    you lost your touch
    a long long time ago.
    Hey.
    How're you feeling?
    Nothing's Up.
    The timeslot's almost up.

    Or maybe I should just shut up.
    (END CHORUS)

    And what do I say?
    And what do I do?
    She's looking at me, but I just can't look back.
    And nobody knows.
    And nobody cares.
    She's not angry, but I still feel so damned ill.
    And what do I say?
    And what do I do?
    She's looking at me, her eyes of purest light.
    And what do I know?
    Should I start to cry?
    She's looking at me, should I run for my life?

    (CHORUS III)
    Hey.
    How're you doing?
    Nothing Much.
    I lost my touch
    A long long time ago.
    Hey.
    How're you doing?
    Nothing's Up.
    That's what you say, I know.
    Hey.
    How're you doing?
    Nothing Much, you say
    I lost my touch
    a long time ago.
    Hey.
    How're you feeling?
    Nothing's Up.
    Maybe I should just give up

    Or maybe I should just shut up.
    maybe I should just shut up.
    maybe I should just shut up.
    maybe I should just shut up.
    maybe I should just shut up.
    Oh, world, please shut up.
    (END CHORUS)

    Another song.

    She says that she's glad for me.
    But
    I know, I know, I know that she's lying.
    She says that she'll be there for me.
    But
    I know, I know, I know, she's not even trying.

    And so I stare
    out to the sky
    And watch as time
    just passes by.
    It feels so warm
    But she's so cold.
    All that glitters
    is not gold...

    (CHORUS)
    She's never there
    She's never real
    She's just a dream
    But
    I'll be damned, cuz I think I'm in love.
    She isn't real
    It's just a trick
    It's just my paranoia
    But
    I'll be damned, I think I'm in love.
    (CHORUS END)

    She says that she'll be nice to me.
    But
    I know, I know, I know that she's not here.
    She says that she'll make out with me.
    But
    I know, I know, I know, she's just what I feared...

    And so I stare
    out to the sea
    Why wont my mind
    just leave me be
    It feels so warm
    But she's so cold.
    All that glitters
    is not gold...

    (CHORUS II)
    She's never there
    She's never real
    She's just a dream
    But
    I'll be damned, I think I'm in love.
    She isn't real
    It's just a trick
    It's just my paranoia
    But
    I'll be damned, cuz I'm in love.
    With my mind
    (CHORUS END)

    The love is burning
    Not like fire, but like cigars
    Polluting my mind
    With flights of fancy all the time.
    The love is searing
    Like my arm on the stovetop
    I'm burning
    burning
    burning
    like a frickin' Zippo Lighter
    and I swear
    It feels so warm
    But she's so cold.
    All that glitters
    is not gold...
    It is not gold!

    (CHORUS III)
    She's never there
    She's never real
    She's just a dream
    But
    I'll be damned, I think I'm in love.
    She isn't real
    It's just a trick
    It's just my paranoia
    But
    I'll be damned, cuz I'm in love.
    I'm in love.
    She's never there
    She's never real
    She's just a dream
    But
    I'll be damned, I think I'm in love.
    She isn't real
    It's just a trick
    It's just my paranoia
    But
    I'll be damned, cuz I'm in love.
    With my mind
    (CHORUS END)

    (Background repeats Chorus)
    I'm so in love.
    I'm so in love.
    I'm so in love.
    I'm so in love.

    Just leave me to burn...
