My first songs!! What do you think?
 
Hello everybody, I´m new here, and I just started writing some what i hopefully can be songs, Id like your honest opinion, they are not 100% finished yet, Ive written around 20 songs now, 2 of my songs:

----

Queen of bordeaux


Somewhere between her glass and mind
Driving questions to dead points
Could it been her heart playing her blind
Listening to some song with unkind words
the bottle is calling her back
her empty dreams so black

She is the queen of bordeaux
She is the queen of bordeaux
Her teeth tells the truth
Will she be breathing again
She is lonely She is lonely
Fill the gap with the blood
that poison this beauty
She will be the queen
of her destiny

Asking if her day has been okay
Watching her hands shaking
Hinding her fear behind that smile
Would somebody worship her
Listening to her weeping through the wine
the life is calling her back
her empty heart so black

She is the queen of bordeaux
She is the queen of empty glasses
and broken hearts



..............------



Wishing on something

I never thought there was so many stars upon us
shining for the one who is waiting
I never thought Id have a star shooting for me
Where did you hide, did you not want to be bounded
Floating up around and thinking
You must have heard me hinting

Wishing for a fantasy with no end
Wishing for the magic to be mine
I´ve never seen a heart so fine.
There is only you
To take me away
Wanting for someone who makes me feel like you do.
To think I am one of the few

I wanted to tell you that night
But your arms wouldn´t let me wait
That there is nobody like you
I never thought Id be in this state
devoting an star falling down
You must have heard me praying, saying.

Wishing for a fantasy with no end
Wishing for the dream to be mine
I´ve never seen a heart as divine.
There will be only you
To take me away
Wishing on something like you
To take me with the storm

Wishing on a dream to live by
Through the hurting
To always be mine
Somewhere you will always be waiting

Wow, what a great lyrics, you have amazing talent

yvi_poison 04-11-2009 11:19 AM

thank u so much, really nice to hear:) I think they could maybe be better somehow?

clockworkmice 04-11-2009 04:25 PM

I like the first one a lot as it has a nice gritty real life feel, however I'm not too fond of the second one mostly because the concept isn't something quite as interesting as the first.

Skigh 04-12-2009 01:04 AM

ReL: "Wishing on Somethng". Awesome lyrics ,that completely moved me because I imagined you wrote it for me! lol! I love your mind! Those are the lyrics of a very special, highly talented, creative artist/musician. Thank you forsharing. It made my night!

yvi_poison 04-12-2009 05:07 AM

wow! thanks thats nice to hear from you! Its my first songs and this really gives me confident to go further with my lyrics/ideas:)

Bronxo 04-14-2009 07:37 AM

i like the first one really much, otherwise well done mate. Keep it up :D

yvi_poison 04-15-2009 11:04 AM

suddenly
I hide behind this facade
stars in your eyes is blinding
my illusions

Northernlight
I call on you
attack me above
touch me from above
suffocate the night
Northernlight
Northernlight
Northernlight

In this night I fall in
A grief I cant recall
your hands
my pain

Northernlight
Sense my fear
attack m from above
touch me from nowhere
suffocate the fear
Northernlight
Northernlight
This night

Holding my breath
in this fire
heart losing beats
You say you say
you did

Northernlight
wipe my tears
with this power
touch me from above
Northernlight
Northernlight
tonight
Northernlight you sense
my fear
tonight

Come now to me
Northernlight
attack me free
this last
time

lalasingergirl 04-16-2009 11:24 AM

moondust 04-16-2009 12:28 PM

yvi_poison 04-16-2009 12:34 PM

Not as good as your first, although maybe that's because I'm not a big fan of that much repetition and one or two word lines. Description is key, i feel like stanza's such as

Come now to me
Northernlight
attack me free
this last
time

are copouts, because.... well, they're very generic. Don't let me discourage you though, you have some real potential talent, I would just say read more lyrics by the greats, poems AND songs. I would suggest Jeff Mangum (from the band Neutral Milk Hotel), he's my favorite lyricist of all time.

peterbaby7 04-18-2009 11:21 PM

nice !!!
can you play some instrument music?
try to turn it into songs, or do you need some help?

i though it will be more nice if someone can sing it.

yvi_poison 04-19-2009 01:23 AM

thanks!

I can´t play any instruments, and need help there, Im trying to find someone to work with.. I have kind of ideas in my head what the songs should sound like, but it might not be easy to make a song if you can´t play instruments.. I guess?

You should probably learn at least some simple guitar chords, unless you're planning to be a poet or to sell your lyrics to bands.

yvi_poison 04-19-2009 01:29 AM

I have been thinking of just selling my lyrics to bands, as i dont think I have enough patience with making own music.. But is there many bands looking for lyricswriters ?

There are plenty of people who are skilled at their instrument but can't write lyrics for ****.
Just ask around, maybe you'll find some local band in need of lyrics.

tymygy 04-19-2009 02:47 PM

I like the second one alot.

very talented. :bowdown:

yvi_poison 04-20-2009 03:50 PM

wrote one quick here now... sorry to bomb u with songs, just feeling very creative and need help :)




Last night I woke up from my dream
that I never thought i would
I learned something from this night
That what you think might last
might suddenly fade away
without permission

Beauty turns to ashes
What once burned
die out
You still whisper in ace
Reaching for something to far away
Passion turns to ration
of our old love

Past is owned by empty hearts
longing to live a dream
we never got to fulfill
Past was somewhere to hide
when our dream
could never come apart

A wind melting ice in heaven
My heart can´t find its place
A wind carrying it away
To be caught again

Last night I fighted goodbye
that i never thought i would win
I learned some tears could end that night
Our night
that will stay forever
might might not fade away
In our hearts

Carrier of our dreams
Blowing over the fields
Reaching out to somewhere
Innocents will learn
Someday
what might comfort
our hearts
at rest

Stone Birds 04-21-2009 03:54 PM

i feel like buying this song it's nice and matches my style
suddenly
I hide behind this facade
stars in your eyes is blinding
my illusions

Northernlight
I call on you
attack me above
touch me from above
suffocate the night
Northernlight
Northernlight
Northernlight

In this night I fall in
A grief I cant recall
your hands
my pain

Northernlight
Sense my fear
attack m from above
touch me from nowhere
suffocate the fear
Northernlight
Northernlight
This night

Holding my breath
in this fire
heart losing beats
You say you say
you did

Northernlight
wipe my tears
with this power
touch me from above
Northernlight
Northernlight
tonight
Northernlight you sense
my fear
tonight

Come now to me
Northernlight
attack me free
this last

Stone Birds 04-22-2009 03:50 PM

woow. love them , girl , yaah , you got talent :)

ACDCfan94 01-14-2010 12:26 PM

Amazing
 
Hey! You are super talented. loved it!

t3hplatyz0rz 01-16-2010 08:17 AM

It's really, really good. One thing I think, though, is that it's a little too dark for my tastes. Maybe you could try putting it to some relaxed reggae to lighten up the mood? (jk)

I don't get the point of "Northernlight". As with all your stuff, it's very poetic, but I don't really know what it's about. It's good to have mystery, and it's good to have clarity, but you need more clarity and less mystery in that song.

Also, remember, you have a talent, but it takes more than that. You also have to remember to not let the people who say "rubbish and that's being generous" let you down too much. You just can't please everybody.

BillyShears 01-20-2010 02:15 PM

I love northenlight! That's great stuff.

sniblo 01-24-2010 09:25 AM

I like the second one best, do you have rough recordings of them yet?

Lace 01-27-2010 02:54 AM

I like the lyrics so much because they make sense which leads me to ask you for any advice you could give me on song writing
