I love them. Honestly. The first was amazing. It makes me think a lot about how a person reviewing things really feels. It's like so in touch with actual life. Wow, your inspiration must have been a strong one, because it shows through your words. Your second is funny in the ending, I love it!!! Keep it up!!!

Thank you so much. I appreciate the comments and I'm glad you enjoyed them. Actually, I have spent a fair bit of time reading album and song reviews over the years. I even used to read the Rolling Stone Album Review Almanac's. Back in the day when the reviews were witty. It's funny how over time certain bands like Queen, for example, have gained a respect they never had when Freddie Mercury was here. The RS Review Guide in '83 said that Crazy Little Thing Called Love was the only worthwhile song they'd ever done in an otherwise worthless catalogue. After Freddie died, I understand they changed their tune dramatically.

Have a great day and thanks again. I will post more soon.

Edit: Actually review of Wild Cherry: "Qintessentially unfunky white band play unfunky music. The hit single was Play That Funky Music White Boy."

This is one of my sadder lyrics. It's ideally a rock ballad. Let me know what you all think, please.


Borrowed Time


(Verse)

Walking through my kaleidoscope garden
Looking at the colors as they grow just like a dream
Half past too late I hear someone say beg your pardon
Thoughts in my mind are never what they seem

I took the long way to the center of your heart
Searching for love just like a flower that had grown
You tore up weeds until you'd torn my soul apart
And I am lost just like a song you've never known

(Chorus)

We live on borrowed time this garden's such a scene
Tell me the truth what do you feel
This sorrow's yours and mine it's left us here to bleed
Hoping that the scars will one day heal


(Verse)

Time's winding down I know that it's the truth
I search through darkened places hoping I will find you
As every mystery leads me to another clue
I know you're out there I'm coming for you soon

You run and hide on me you know just what to do
While leaving me in tears this pain will never end
Just take a chance with me I know we'll make it through
A new horizon's coming up around the bend


(Chorus)


We live on borrowed time this garden's such a scene
Tell me the truth what do you feel
This sorrow's yours and mine it's left us here to bleed
Hoping that the scars will one day heal


(Bridge)

Touch the stony ground that's living in our hearts
Turn it to something else that makes it all brand new
We can grow if we only give ourselves a chance
Don't let the garden die now all we've got is truth


(Chorus)


We live on borrowed time this garden's such a scene
Tell me the truth what do you feel
This sorrow's yours and mine it's left us here to bleed
Hoping that the scars will one day heal
