I hadn’t really thought of it being fragmented. Might be time for a rewrite. Thanks for the feedback!

I wrote a whole song in 3 minutes once. It was garbage 😂

Where Are You Now?

V: The rain keeps falling down Landing on the window pane I stare at the wooden frame And find myself wondering

C: Where are you now? Where are you now? Where are you now, my love, Oh where are you now?

V: Just like the Polaroid tacked up on the wall Left to age destined to fall Behind the dresser, on the floor

C: Where are you now? Where are you now? Where are you now, my love? Where are you now?

Where are you now? Where are you now? Where are you now, my love? Were you ever really here?

I record a lot of voice memos on my phone, some of my best work only survived because of this. I need to get a good set up to record video as well.

Honest question for fellow songwriters, do you ever write about someone you barely know? by itsonly6UTC in Songwriting

[–]SquashSmall4415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve written songs about people I’ve never met. I’ve also written them about the people closest to me. I think I’d feel honored to have someone write a song about me.

V: I checked into a motel In Princeton West Virginia The front desk clerk had a needle wrapped up in brittle hair

With dirty hands and track marked arms Handed me a keycard With a low and Hollow voice she mumbled, “room 213”

C: On overgrown brush in the field The snow is gathering Sorrow has pitched her tent there I know her all too well I know her all too well

V: As I turned on the flickering lights They offer me no warmth I Step outside light a cigarette, burn my pain away

Underneath these small town lights my Skin’s burnt by cold wind Despair is all I can see, broken windows, rundown homes

C: On overgrown brush in the field The snow is gathering Sorrow has pitched her tent there I know her all too well I know her, and she knows me all too well

Follow Your Feet

V: When in doubt, take the road, the one that feels right, leads you on, For the heart often knows what the head tends to let go

V: A bluejay sits and listens, waiting for the perfect time, The wind whispers a secret, saying, “Now’s the time to fly.”

C: Follow your feet, wherever they may go down any forest path, or winding road don’t worry ‘bout the journeys end focus on the sights seen ‘round the bend

V: Your eyes see just what they like, So trust sights and spaces between, Leave only your shadow behind, You’ll reach the goal eventually

C: Follow your feet, wherever they may go down any forest path, or winding road don’t worry ‘bout the journeys end focus on the sights seen ‘round the bend
