Never Ever

The lyrics for this are just an expression.  A song.   I have a melody for chorus, almost for verses.  And yeah, he’s already got me, so it’s a tough one for me to write. Needs work of course…

Never Ever

Verse 1

I just wanna sleep in, restring & sing about him

About how he tore my ticker out with his bare hands

And left it beating winter raw on our dance floor…

I just wanna grow wings, free fall & never give in

Acrobat before my ticket expires onto his tomorrow land

Bass clef greeting splinter-sure into my slammed door

Chorus

Cause you’re never ever never

No you’re never gonna get me now

No you’re never gonna get me now

Cause it’s time for goodbye 

And goodbyes they hurt

But you’re never gonna get me now

No you’re never gonna get me now…

So you better run hard & you better run fast

If you ever wanna catch me now

If you ever wanna catch my fall

‘Cause you’re never ever never

No you’re never gonna get me now

No you’re never gonna get me now

Verse 2

I just wanna hide away, resurrect & perfect the day

Tilt the world into another plane & just forget the pain

Fast forward to paradise & wake to see him there

Yeah I just want us bare, to touch him there & everywhere

Shipwreck glimpsed his treasure chest then cast me out to sea

High rise sweeper-lure into my heart so foolishly

Chorus

Outro

Never ever all my life, and I wanted you so bad

So long and I’m gone now

Misunderstood

Wrote this one a while back (2013/14) – kinda have a melody for the chorus

V 1
That past road wounded zombified nights
When looping was more fun than being alive
But there’s no way in hell you can hide your tired eyes
When daylight creeps in at quarter to five

Oh your fast mind bounded glorified heights
Where zooping was more sun than a scenic drive
Between no ray at all when you’re hiding away
When darkness seeps in and nowhere arrives

V 2
That lost sound bombarded kinetic flights
When rocking the moon set the stars to jive
But there’s no time in space to ride back again
When gravity reaps in against Keplar’s grin

Oh how will your heartbeat walk the mile
When the shoes you wear look battered and torn
Between North, South, East and West
When sanity leaps in reeking of gin

 

It’s not a test so give it some zest

Bridge
It’s just a journey to another milky way

Chorus (x2)
She’s a little bit crazed and
A little misunderstood…
Yeah she’s a little bit dazed and
A Little Misunderstood…
She’s a little bit dippy and
A little misunderstood…..
Yeah she’s a little bit trippy and
A little misunderstood
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
A little misunderstood

Black Skies, White Lies

April 2015

Wrote this a little while ago and have never completed…  I have the main vocals (melody) for chorus

VERSE 1:

Girl stop the rookin, got to write it down then reverse it
Sweet puff, fake rush, head up in the clouds, too many times
Now the rest of you’s still up there
Never goin back, totally let it go n right now song is a rockin
Up, up above n let go, can’t be floating in the Mesophere, oxygen thieving
Like a stab-in-the back

VERSE 2:

Took a lot of lookin, had to spin it round then reverse it
Hit the stuff, fat splat, hard to the ground, read the signs
Now part of you’s still down there
Never goin back, gotta let it go n right now song is a rockin
Down, below n let go, don’t belonging on the pavement, people walkin talkin
Like bitch-a-man track

VERSE 3:

Not into turning, but gotta look deeper then reverse it
Get a bookin, in like flynn, shout out ’bout diamond crimes
Now rest assured it’s gone now
Never goin back, gotta let it go n right now song is a rockin
Stay, clip da wings baby crow, can’t be in the gutter, blood thicker than water
Like dogs in a pack

Pre-Chorus

Never meant to hurt you
Never meant to desert you

CHORUS:

Black skies, white lies
Black skies, white lies
Black skies, white lies

Black skies

White lies

(Forgotten ties & memories that never die)

Light As A Feather

When I wrote this in 2013/14 it wasn’t about anyone (words just came as usual) and remained incomplete – until now.

Light As A Feather

V1

Here we are together again

Sharing the same space

Breathing the same air

Walking the same lane

Oh, how could today get any better?

With Blue skies painting

A sunrise waiting

For you & me, me & you

(You and me)

Chorus (x2)

Oh it’s not complicated

Us together

We’re light as a feather

You & me, me & you

(You & Me)

Oh it’s not complicated

Us together

Could float on forever

You & Me, me & you

(You & Me)

V2

Here we are together again

Swimming the same seas

Surfing the same waves

Walking the same sands

Oh, how could our day get any better?

With red skies calling

A tangerine falling

For you and me, me & you

(You & me)

Chorus

V3

Here we are together again

Ticking the same time

Hearing the same buzz

Walking the same beat

Oh, how could the night get any better?

With star dust caressing

A moonlight lingering

For You & me

Me & You

(You & Me)

Chorus

Outro

A perfect melody

We’re light as a feather

Don’t Do It

Wrote the chorus for this one a year or so ago and verses started coming to me a coupla weeks ago.  I love it already 🙂

I have the melody for the chorus, need to write last verse n spice it up a little too 🍾

Don’t Do It

V 1

Look sowed that seed the sun in his eyes that keeps her alive

Dreams so surreal of his rusted barrels that lassoed her vineyard

Deeply herded his fire blazed soul that keeps her inspired

Paled his desire so trodden n trusted that keeps her surrendered…

Took down that creed the ray of his world that sweeps her drive

Silence so bereft of his twisted perils that monsooned her win card

Sweetly burdened his tire crazed foal that reaps her wild

Wailed his choir so forgotten n lusted that keeps her remembered…

Pre-chorus

Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t 

Oh no, don’t do it…

Chorus

Don’t let a day go by

Oh no no

Don’t let it fly on by

Oh no no

Don’t let another day go by 

Without telling him he’s the one…

Don’t let a day go by 

Oh no no

Don’t let it fly on by

Oh no no

Don’t let another day go by 

Without telling her she’s the one

Why won’t this feeling leave 

And why only him in all the sea

Did love strike that crazy bullet

So near, so far

So now he’s got me thinking

Thinking am I still here?

No gig and it’s been killing me

Deep the dish cause I want the lot

Cherry mounted on the top

So glitch, so funk, so now he’s got me sinking

Sinking into my tears…

Oooh, Oooh, Oh, Oh…Oh, Oh (x2)

Chorus

Juggernaut there’s a mirage in your smile

Split the soul oh pare the apple of my eye

Juggernaut this feelin’s so divine

Autograph oh won’t you spill your ink onto my dotted line…

Oooh, Oooh, Oh, Oh…Oh, Oh (x2)

V 2

Why won’t anyone believe in me

And why not the hymn n the fallen bee

Will dove not buy that hazy sonnet

So clear, so mar, so now he’s got me rising

Rising an uphill tier

No rig but somethin’s pullin me

Reap the wish cause I want it hot

Sherry courting winning hop

So bitch, so spunk, so now he’s got me drinking

Drinking up my fears…

Oooh, Oooh, Oh, Oh…Oh, Oh (x2)

White n Black, I want it back

Something so simple, that meant so much to me…

White n Black, I Want It Back

Intro

White n Black, I want it back

V 1

You got me silent cursin

Cause I lost you to another

Now my lips are pursin

Ripped out, slipped out, or pulled out

Yeah I take it you’re a pro bro

I gotta notion you’ll getta promotion

A degree in rippin off society

Right before their bleary stare

Memorandum of the unfair

Gun lords jumpin queues

At the fun fair

Angry birds wide eyed

Tweeting happy

Iphones n apathy

Doing it all the wrong way, no way

Burning out sobriety

Tearing through society

What a pity you downsized

To girly size

Ditty n gritty on the outside

Potty hollow on the inner

V 2

Now i’m sunset cruising

Blocked at ten past five O’clock

Grounded hog n little miss piggy

Zombie deep n brain fried

Up-sized n battered on the side

Packed n momentarily unknowns

Big butts sitting tight

Day turning into night

Stuffed n stolen baggage

Sundown, turn around

Pinch my dusty pink

Used to believe

Frequent flies dodging the flu

Train hopped the other way

Took flight wrong day

Yeah you unzipped, ripped n tripped

Stealthily out the beepin door

Armed back down to Southside

Somehow made it’s way

Nabbed from Western pay pack

Locked door you stole my heart

From the holy loud n proud

Chorus

White n Black, I want it back

Dogeared n faded

White n Black, give it Back

Heart seared n jaded…

White n Black, I want it back

Dogeared n faded

White n Black, give it Back

Heart ripped n shaded…

V 3

Pastor pale n hope derailed

Smile back up at the cameras

Mind the gap (fuck ya)

You left ya tracks

Quickest closest thirsty camel

Drink it up, cheap trick, lowlife prick…

But there aint no use cursin

Cause I just wanna go home

Songs, surf n verse n rhyme

Seekin a bout of publicity

Something missing

Lost n found

Surround me air of dumbfounded

Who broke the moralistic

Unjust, where’s the love

Black eyed with no trust

I worked so hard for that you prat

Yeah you twat

White pointer soul destroyer

I don’t care you spent my cash

Cause I’m used to having nothing

Aint the first time

Probably aint gonna be the last time

V 4

You wanna do some time

You should’ve asked me nicely

I probably would’ve handed you

Hands up over the lot

Karmic berried on the top

Did you have a laugh, have a blast

Fill ya hamster holes n crime

With my last dime

About that!

I can bear the feeling

Goldilocked

Trout slap now hear me out

You took away the one thing

That’s kept me going strong

On my long journeys home

So forget my name n toss the rest

Except for just one thing…

Chorus

White n Black, I want it back

Dogeared n faded

White n Black, give it back

Heart seared n jaded…

White n Black, I want it back

Dogeared n faded

White n Black, give it Back

Heart ripped n shaded…

V 5

Fuck the crime n fuck the dime

Drink ya poison shimmer wine

On the sublimed

On the house you lowlife, with no life

Cause in my mind

He’s my only fan

And it’s worth more

To my bruised n broken heart

Than all the cash

In the whole friggin world

The one that got away

Knuckle wrap

Sod of the law

All year long

Bridge

United Kingdom & New Zealand

I took that with me everywhere

Cause that’s all I had of him

And he’s probably with another

Another lover anyway

But I want it back, need it back

Chorus

White n Black, I want it back

Dogeared n faded

White n Black, give it Back

Heart seared n jaded…

White n Black, I want it back

Dogeared n faded

White n Black, give it Back

Heart ripped n shaded…

Outro

His business card

Printed n splintered

Dog-eared n faded…

White n Black, I want it back (repeat…fade out)

😦

God

This one just came to me – melody and all. No verses or chorus – just one long song 🙂

 

Did you put me in a place I never wanted to be

Just to wake me to the brink of my reality?

Did you show me all the things that no-one should see

Just to take away who I really wanted to be?

Did you lead me down a never ending road to ruin

Just to plant a seed of doubt deep inside of me?

Did you fool me into thinking I was nothin at all

Just to give me the strength I needed to never lose my way again?

Cause I gotta funny feelin it was all meant to be

That you pushed me to the edge of my sanity

Knowing one day I’d wake up and believe in you

That I’d be strong enough to find my way back to you.

Now the songbirds are singing from the light in my heart

Oh, can you hear our melody when you’re alone in the dark

Now I’m free to be the one you always dreamed I’d be

Yeah our rainbow flame is burning from the very depth of me.

 

If I’m Gonna Win Your Heart

I’ve had the chorus (lyrics/melody) for this in my head for six months now…the rest just came to me now. I still have another verse to write 🙂  Upbeat track, I hear metal/rock/rap in this one

If I’m Gonna Win Your Heart

Pleaded with you ’cause I needed you
To tell me how you feel
Never believed my heart could lie, so added it up
That you never sold me to the rain
I pushed me hard into that train
Shattered n splattered
Inside out, wanting to believe
Ripped to shreds (oh yeah)
I try to go, but I come back again
Cause I believe in you, yeah you
And the funny thing is, time after time, deep n down
Still I do, yeah still I do…but don’t you want me?
Don’t you want me too?
It’s been five years, six years, maybe more
And I’ve spent em all alone
On the inside, down n out
Anyhow, I guess it could be seven now
But I don’t know anymore
Cause I’ve been losing track of time
Yeah my days n years of mixed up madness…
They’re all snowed into one now
It’s been a long road, lonely road, living without you
And there’s a dent left in my soul
On the flipside, hot n cold
Anyhow, you got the crown now
But I won’t lose anymore
Cause I’ve been foolish with my dignity
Yeah my long n lonely road to gladness…
That’s all flowed into song now

Chorus:
If I’m gonna win your heart
If I’m gonna make you see 
I know…..
I’ve gotta lotta lotta lotta lotta lotta lotta 
Work to do….
If I’m gonna win your heart
If I’m gonna win your soul
I’ve gotta lotta lotta lotta lotta lotta lotta 
Work to do……………

 

 

 

Om Boom

I love everything about this song.  It’s come to me in bits n pieces.  The foundation of this one is very close to being complete!

Structure —>

Capo 4th or 5th fret (original is on the 4th, but I can’t get the vibrato at end of Verse 2 when on this fret.  Vocals sound better on 4th however so i’m prob gonna go with that)

Amin, G, Emin,

Om Boom

Pre-verse 1

There’s something in the way you move me

Something I’ve never felt before

And all I wanna do is hold you

And let the world around us fall away   

Verse 1

You played your part so well

Cast your silent spell on me

You gave me just enough to dwell

Before you took your love away 

Yeah you took it away

And left me drowning in the swell

Ooh Ooh 

Pre-Chorus  

And you should know

You should know by now

Chorus: (x2)

You’re the Om you’re the Boom

You’re the 528

You’re the sun you’re the fun

You’re the heat in my gun

You’re the lonesome blue that breaks through the day

You’re the butterfly yellow that lights my way

Preverse 2

Cause there’s something in the way you move me

Something I’ve never felt before

And all I wanna do is hold you

And let the world around us fall away  

Verse 2

You stole my heart for sure

Fast I fell into eternity

You stoked my core, you broke down my walls

But then you ran the other away

(Yeah you ran away)

And left me stranded

At the bottom of the ocean floor…

Ooh Ooh Ooh (x2) 

Pre-Chorus  

And you should know by now

Chorus

Bridge:

Cause there’s something in the way that you refuse me

And it’s that something I keep coming back for more

Outro: (x2) (slow down 2nd time)

Cause there’s something in the way you move me

Something I’ve never felt before…

And all I wanna do Is hold you….

And let the world around us…

Fall away
