Okay, so after writing my first post to this blog, I went and thought about doing something else, then realized that all I really wanted to do was keep blogging. So I thought to myself 'What the hell, let's make another one'. And so I am.
Alright, well I mentioned in the previous post that I'm going to use this site to post like lyrics and poems and stuff, so here's a song I wrote a little while ago... like a few weeks ago. Really catchy song, I really like how it sounds, and hopefully I can do something with it. The lyrics are in no way 'amazing', but they're alright, and they suit the song perfectly.
It's a loveish song. By that, I mean it's a positive song about being in love with somebody, but for some reason it just hasn't really happened yet. It's a song about NOT being with the person that you're in love with, but from a positive 'hopeful-for-the-future' kind of aspect.
So here's the lyrics:
There's flowers in my eyes and there's snow on frozen ground
I'm blinded from the light until you bring me back down
It's always back and forth in my own reality
Clawing at my mind, wanting you to set me free
We're melting on the inside as I'm bursting at the seams
I don't understand how you're doing this to me
It's like you just don't try, you're sure you never say maybe
I'm pretty sure that you're driving my crazy
But I've made up my mind
And I'm sure that I'm just fine
But if I had you, I think that I'd be alright
No more worries keeping me up all night
If it were you, it don't matter how much you care
I'm content if you're just there.
Teardrops fall like raindrops there's enough to fill the sea
But crying doesn't bring you back to me
And if I could I'd hold you, but what's the use in holding in
All I want to do is tell you everything
You're beautiful as heaven, as far as I can tell
There's no such thing as close enough, I guess it's just as well
But I'm sure I'm going crazy and I've prob'ly lost my mind
That's the way it seems to be now, all the time
But if I had you, I think that I'd be alright
No more worries keeping me up all night
If it were you, it don't matter how much you care
I'm content if you're just there.
Nothing makes the heart grow fonder
As days and distance grows
And as I sing these final words
I think that you should know
You should know
That if I had you, I think that I'd be alright
No more worries keeping me up all night
If it were you, it don't matter how much you care
I'm content if you're just there.
Basically, it's the last line of the chorus that really sums up the whole song; I'm content if you're just there. I love that line so much. It just evokes so much... I don't even know. It's a very happy song, and I wish I was still that happy... but it's alright I guess. Life's not about constant joy and happiness, it's about pulling yourself off the ground. We all fall, but we all gotta get back up. True, it can get depressing, but what it comes down to is that there's so much to live for, for just about everybody. There's of course the universal subject that most people seem to map their whole life around. Of course, I'm talking about love.
Why is it that love is the most universal force in the world? Like, it influences everything in life. Listen to music; half the songs out there are about love. If nothing else, it's a subplot in just about every movie ever made. I'm sorry, but is love really that interesting? Like, my god. Is there really nothing better out there to live for?
Well, I intend to find out.
