It's pretty good. Nothing really astounded me or struck me as amazing, but definitely not shitty or mediocre in the least.

I'm glad you say so because that's exactly how I feel about this one. It's a fairly bog-standard ballad. I've probably written a million more interesting things (to me, at least) but none of them have had the sensible rhythm or simplicity required for me to be able to incorporate them into a real song. My musicianship (I play rhythm guitar and have a basic understanding of drumming) is nowhere near a high level so I can't do anything complex in terms of the music. That's where I fall down big-style since, as I say, I need simplicity in the words in order to make a complete song and I rarely strive for simplicity when writing lyrics (although some amazing songs have very simple words).

But enough of that spraff.

I'll post more when I'm at home and have all my notebooks and stuff. For now, that's the only one I'm able to reproduce from memory.

And I don't know, but the simplest lines strike me as the most pleasing when read out loud for some reason.

And I haven't even made it to the reasonably okay stuff yet. This is all terrible.

You know it's bad when you can't even rely on Kittyradio to hit you up with some heavy criticism-slash-entertainment.

It's all a bit cliched, but overall it doesn't suck as much as some people's lyrics who are famous in bands. Try not to rhyme so much (even though I do) or pick different beats to rhyme stuff on.

eg. you rhyme pretty much every 2 or 4 (or both) beats (that's how I read it anyway) so mix it up and rhyme on every 4 for a bit and then throw in a 7. Geddit?

I've read much much worse and I honestly think that if you have the music to back these "lyrics" (they're not lyrics to me until I hear the music, maaaaaaaan ) then you'll be sweet. And if that's not what you want to do, you could still get a job as a lyricist if you really wanted. Just make sure it's for a cliched pop bitch! Haha. Kidding.

PS: Criticism/Entertainment: MY DAWG CAN WRITE BETTER PISH THAN YOOOOOOOOOOU! Plz go back to angst skool and kut some more <3

Cheers, m'dears.

Aye, rhyming seems to be the bane of my existence when it comes to writing. There are times when I'll sit down and consciously say "right, nae rhyming this time" and I'll come up with one line I like. Next thing I know I've got another three lines with perfect rhymes following it up. I cannae help it, min.

I've got some more recent stuff somewhere but it isn't on my compy (most of the above was copied and pasted from text files, from the days where I was sad enough to keep it all on my computer). All that stuff I posted was generally written years ago. I don't know if my style has genuinely improved since, but obviously I like to think it has.

Aye wee pal, I ken what you mean, likes...

I always rhyme, can't help it, but I just try to consciusly change it so it's not always at the end of the line. And I try to pick weird words these days as opposed to my old faithful game/shame/blame that I used to use TOO MUCH when I was about 19.
