Verse 1

Its out in the cold weather, I'm right or wrong
Even if I'm sick alright it's sacred, whatever the form
Put on that BIG LIGHT-yes I'm ready
and nothing Fits RIGHT-oh well i'm steady
Are you ready for this? Are you Ready

Chorus

Is it you that set this lake on fire?
And how solid are you in this cold?
And do you live inside of your pretty world?
This opens a can of worms I cannot swallow

Verse 2

They say that over the hill is a place you can retire
but the prison is full of things no one requires
I just cant TAKE IT-cause of these chains
Don't make me BREAK IT- whatever that means
And I've had enough of this, Ive had enough

Chorus

break

chorus

Is it you who set this lake on fire
And how solid are you in this cold
and do LIVE INSIDEOF YOUR PRETTY WORLD
I CANNOT SWALLOW CANNOT SWALLOW CANNOOOT SWALLow.

Haven't seen you in...ever come to think of it.

I want the P-funk!

My band is better than yours...

Read. Read as many books as you can get your hands on. Seriously, just read everyone from Shakespeare to Steinbeck. Once you've really mastered the English language, then you can write songs. When a songwriter has a shaky grasp on English, it irreparably damages his lyrics. If you can't "get" English the way someone like Hardy gets English, lyricwriting is not for you, maybe you're more of a biology person.

Going of what Jolly said.

Read plenty of poetry too. Look at how the author expresses themselves through metaphor and simile. Two key elements of lyrical songwriting.

lyric always sound chessy when read alone, so dont be afraid to put it in a song, they song better, even if the song sucks.

I find songwriting easy because i relise when i am in a particular mood sad happy angry whatever and instead of shouting or screeming i just write down some words phrases andlines to show how i feel and when i calm down and am in a normal mood try mixing them

:eek: BUT A WARNING: :eek:
remember your mood reflects your songs feel and sound so don't make a happy song when your sad ;)
many thanks
No 1 can touch me cos i rule

i disargree a song writting with a happy attitude can go with a sad song, or visa versa.
