In case you are unaware, I’m also a songwriter – in fact, I’d describe myself as more a songwriter than a novelist, but for some strange reason it’s a lot harder to get ears than eyes this days! I wish I knew why.
Anyways, I recently wrote this indie folk song. Please give it a listen and let me know if you like it! Click below to listen or download, lyrics are below.
Lyrics:
Little pieces of my heart
Are scattered like an omen
Little shatters of my soul
I give away like candy
You can fly with the sea
If you become the torrent
I explode across the breeze
I never was not no one
Tiny fragments of my skin
Are floating in your matter
Just a segment of my blood
The red will try to make you mine
In the pillar of yourself
I reap the essence slowly
Taking chunks of you I need
This hungry wilting zombie
Roll
No one
Breathe
Then pay the fee
Roll
Are you someone?
Reach
Nothing’s free
Half for you
Half for me
And more for the rest of you
Take a bite
Have a feast
There’s more where I got it from
Cuz one plus everyone makes me
Roll
No one
Breathe
Then pay the fee
Roll
Are you someone?
Reach
Nothing’s free
Won’t you taste the salty earth
That wraps around my being?
Can we fall into the soil
To eat the bugs and melt the leaves?
I can’t lift the weight of disappointment
Heartache, that crashes through the lonely
Only leave a little drop, a morsel
A seed
