My first song - hide away- singer songwriter style song
Its been a long day
and I cant wait to hide myself away build a barricade so I can escape what's with the heartache? its over now, there's cause to celebrate but I just wana hide away we always take things to fast that's not who we are we build it up until the sunlight cant shine through we wont go to far just out of the dark but iv a feeling that were going to Hide Away I almost thought I heard you say baby just wana hide away for a while longer whats with the heartache I know it suck but I cant make you stay youll go and leve me with a sour taste Iv learned the hard way if nothing else I watched the tears stream down your face now I just wana hide away we grew up to fast makes us who we are we build it up until the sunlight cant shine through we wont go to far just out of the dark but iv a feeling that were going to Hide Away I almost thought I heard you say baby I just wana hide away for a while longer Hide Away because id rather that than face the day I just wana hide away for a while longer Hide Away I almost thought I heard you say baby I just wana hide away for a while longer Hide Away because id rather that than face the day I just wana hide away for a while longer |
This song is about when something bad happens and all you want to do is wait around inside in a space that your comfortable in. ie your home and wait until you feel better.
the mane lyric that i have repeated in this song is as follows -- i just wanna hide away-- i feel like that gives the song the right message that i was aiming for the opening lyric to the song is as follows -- its been a long day and i cant wait to hide myself away -- i feel like that is a good opening line because it gives the song the right initial vibe |
Song idea 1
I cant find my feet,
you sucked the life out of me, send me to a daze, and I don't like what I can see, red lights and green lights, there all the same the same, whose wrong and who's right? why dose it all feel like a game? With your hair down in your eyes, there's no wonder you cant see, I saw you lock the door, And then you threw away the key, When people have fights, Only time heals everything, we don't get sucked in to, Doing something you'll regret |
This song is called:
Being in a daze Its about being a bit lost and a bit confused as you would be if you were in a Dazed state. If you look at the lyrics i have put in - there no wonder you cant see - send me to a daze and i don't like what i can see - you an see what the mane subject and the mane message of the song is. |
Song idea two based around - have a nice day by the stereophonics
The song – have a nice day – by the stereophonics is a general
feel good song in the instrumentation. The main message in the song that comes back in the chorus is –
HAVE A NICE DAY, however the rest of the words are written in a more sad way. This can be preserved in very few ways by the listener. The song
is a happy song. When you read the lyrics of the song you will see that I tells
a story. It talked about early mornings in san Francisco and getting in a taxi
and just going with the flow and in the end it all turns out for the best.
San Francisco Bay, past pier thirty-nine
Early p.m, can't remember what time Got the waiting cab stopped at the red light Address, unsure of but it turned out just right It started straight off, coming here is hell That's his first words, we asked what he meant He said, "Where your from?" we told him a lot We take a holiday, is this what you want? To have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Lie around all day, have a drink to chase Yourself and tourists, yeah, that's what I hate He said, "We're going wrong", we've all become the same We dress the same ways, only our accents change So have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Swim in the ocean that be my dish I drive around all day and kill the processed fish It's all money gum, no artists anymore You're only in it now to it make more, more and more So have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day |
Waist my days away, but never waist time
moving backwards, to give me time to find what I really want, what I already got Its hard to know what, until you've had some time I think i'm better of, staying back a while watch the struggle, and not get sucked in I think, now your gone, a new direction I could follow you, or maybe just stop I wont let things change like it this way don't let it change want it my way Waist my days away, but never waist time moving backwards, to give me time to find what I really want, what I already got Its hard to know what, until you've had some time I wont let things change like it this way don't let it change want it my way I think i'm better of, staying back a while watch the struggle, and not get sucked in I think, now your gone, a new direction I could follow you, or maybe just I wont let things change like it this way don't let it change want it my way like it this way don't let it change want it my way |
Song idea 3
Caught in the headlights,
Id expect the worst, Long days and late nights, are nothing but a curse, But i think youve been working too hard, Keep your secrets close to youre heart You can stay here if you want to, but i wont be left alone if now its just the oceans that id swim across for you you can stay here if you want to you can stay here if you want to now i know when im wrong you build me up and knock me down now i realize its been so long since i mucked it up You can stay here if you want to, but i wont be left alone if now its just the oceans that id swim across for you you can stay here if you want to you can stay here if you want to |
This song is a love song. The main idea of the song is asking someone you love to stay and not to go.
if you look at some of my lyrics then you will see that message - you can stay here if you want to--- but i wont be left alone --- these lyrics clearly send of the message that i am trying to give of in this song |
Song idea 4
The next song that I have used as a template is a song
called Love will tear us apart by joy divion. This song is the total opposite of
the other song that I uses as a template.
Instead of being happy feel good song this song is a depressing song
with a sad message. The message is that love can never last and even tho you
may love somebody that love you share will never last and will tear to two of
you apart. Whether or not that message is totally true is up to the listener to
decide. In this song the lyrics tell a story of the singers every day routeing.
How his life has lost meaning. And how live has turn him and his girl apart.
"Love Will Tear Us Apart"
When routine bites hard, And ambitions are low, And resentment rides high, But emotions won't grow, And we're changing our ways, Taking different roads. Then love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side. Is my timing that flawed? Our respect runs so dry. Yet there's still this appeal That we've kept through our lives. But love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. You cry out in your sleep, All my failings exposed. And there's a taste in my mouth, As desperation takes hold. Just that something so good Just can't function no more. But love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. |
When we’ve seen too much
And it’s time to retreat Old routines do not die They all end in defeat Soon well all come to terms That theses differences hurt Enough, I’m not wanting to start again Its tough, and I’m not willing to just pretend I know we’ve been exposed all our feeling implode It the end of the line it feels like the right time Now I have seen it all all that left is the fall Enough, I’m not wanting to start again Its tough, and I’m not willing to just pretend Don’t find it hard to sleep through the night till the light Then when crying won’t help when the feeling have been felt Were not changing our ways till the end of our days Enough, I’m not wanting to start again Its tough, and I’m not willing to just pretend Enough, I’m not wanting to start again Its tough, and I’m not willing to just pretend |
paper planes
I write my words on paper aeroplanes
and I throw them out into the rain
no secrets here we go from day to day
and we pretend that its the same
not hard to open your eyes
I wouldn't mind
but you tried so hard to refrain
I know you let it all out
when no ones about
I found you're words in the rain
these walls are paper thin and I cant hide
but if we talk ourselves to sleep then well survive
when the shout to work it out he sleeps outside
in the front seat of the car till the morning light
I keep my toughs bottled inside my brain
I often wished theyd done the same
then why not wright youre words on paper airplanes
and throw them out into the rain
not hard to open your eyes
I wouldn't mind
but you tried so hard to refrain
I know you let it all out
when no ones about
I found you're words in the rain
these walls are paper thin and I cant hide
but if we talk ourselves to sleep then well survive
when the shout to work it out he sleeps outside
in the front seat of the car till the morning light
and I throw them out into the rain
no secrets here we go from day to day
and we pretend that its the same
not hard to open your eyes
I wouldn't mind
but you tried so hard to refrain
I know you let it all out
when no ones about
I found you're words in the rain
these walls are paper thin and I cant hide
but if we talk ourselves to sleep then well survive
when the shout to work it out he sleeps outside
in the front seat of the car till the morning light
I keep my toughs bottled inside my brain
I often wished theyd done the same
then why not wright youre words on paper airplanes
and throw them out into the rain
not hard to open your eyes
I wouldn't mind
but you tried so hard to refrain
I know you let it all out
when no ones about
I found you're words in the rain
these walls are paper thin and I cant hide
but if we talk ourselves to sleep then well survive
when the shout to work it out he sleeps outside
in the front seat of the car till the morning light
pretty scars
Out of this, I’ve learned the truth or something else
That’s close enough, as if to say
That another day, tears us apart
And God I Hate, this twist
of fate Leaves pretty scars
But they won’t hurt and they won’t bleed
What’s underneath cannot be touched
It’s in the ground, what’s in the
past can’t follow you
It’s hard enough to get to sleep
When there’s alarm
bells still ringing
A bitter taste leaves no escape from the feeling
You punched too far above your weight
God only knows you’re not to blame
If you spent another minute in that place
Then fuck fate, it took
you’re innocence away
Yours are, Pretty scars
Yours are, Pretty scars
Yours are, Pretty scars
Yours are, Pretty scars
Ohh
You caught me off guard, but I ain’t got the nerve to say
Ohh
Leave all you’re pretty scars, cuz baby they’ll fade away
Ohh
You can’t fight the past, you’re stories left beneath your skin
Ohh
Whatever you’ve lost leaves pieces to be colour in
That’s close enough, as if to say
That another day, tears us apart
And God I Hate, this twist
of fate Leaves pretty scars
But they won’t hurt and they won’t bleed
What’s underneath cannot be touched
It’s in the ground, what’s in the
past can’t follow you
It’s hard enough to get to sleep
When there’s alarm
bells still ringing
A bitter taste leaves no escape from the feeling
You punched too far above your weight
God only knows you’re not to blame
If you spent another minute in that place
Then fuck fate, it took
you’re innocence away
Yours are, Pretty scars
Yours are, Pretty scars
Yours are, Pretty scars
Yours are, Pretty scars
Ohh
You caught me off guard, but I ain’t got the nerve to say
Ohh
Leave all you’re pretty scars, cuz baby they’ll fade away
Ohh
You can’t fight the past, you’re stories left beneath your skin
Ohh
Whatever you’ve lost leaves pieces to be colour in
