Thought I'd make a casual thread to share my music. Feel free to give me feedback, thoughts/ideas, and critiques. I'll start off with a song I wrote quite a few years ago. It has nothing to do with D&D or RPG's, but it's one of my greats. Lyrics (represented by the Tenor Saxophone): The Meaning Of Life (Part 1) Hopes and dreams may shatter, but we still wish them to be The only hope I dream is to awaken all humanity The wars are never over and all the people left to die But what is left to fight for if your dreams just don't apply It's the change in life that makes this life exist If this change should cease, I know it would be missed 'Cause it's the change in life that lets us carry on And the change, it tells us we're alive Nightmares come and go, but our dreams are always there Still I don't know why the thought is still too much to bear They try to hide from the world around them, but it never goes away So what's wrong with the thought of living for today? <Guitar Solo> It's the change in life that makes our lives exist If this change should cease, I know it would be missed 'Cause it's the change in life that lets us carry on And the change, it tells us we're alive It's the change in life that makes this life exist And the change, it tells us we're alive Edited by Invirion, Dec 19 2011, 05:05 PM.

Here's the sequel to the above post. Lyrics are again represented by the tenor saxophone. The smaller text is whispered rather than sang. The Meaning of Life (Part 2) What matters most is never doubting yourself Life's worth the wait just wait and see We are not alone because we are one and the same The meaning lives and it will always be It's the change in life that keeps us hanging on And these changes may just keep us standing strong We keep changing, and searching for truth We'll never know ourselves if we keep wasting our youth I gotta premonition that it's all for the best But still I keep on searching through this thing in my chest We've turned our back on everyone and ourselves Just doing what came easily We can't be alone because we're still in the game A savior lives inside of you and me It's the change in life that keeps us hanging on And these changes may just keep us standing strong So we'll just keep moving on But still I got a new confession to make I'll do whatever it takes To know each other the way we know our pain... <Guitar Solo> We keep changing and searching for peace We'll never know ourselves if we dont' find some release I had some good intentions, but I started too fast So I will keep on waiting 'til it's better at last It's the change in life that keeps us hanging on And these changes may just keep us standing strong It's the change in life that keeps us hanging on And these changes may just keep us standing strong It's the change in life that keeps us hanging on...

This is an experimental tune I wrote in a time of personal crisis. The music is reminiscent of the 80's, so bear with me here lol. Why I'm Alive Am I to blame for the way you treat me? Man, I think it's the same as the lies that you tell me everyday And it's true that I can't, that I will not take this anymore But you sit and you watch as I fade away, so I pray Can you take this all away? Like the life I lead today What did I do to deserve this pain? Cause I've fallen to my knees And I'm praying that you'll Guide me on the path that I choose to lead I know I don't have a clue But in truth, that's why I'm alive Am I insane for the way I let you grind me into the ground Don't you know that wouldn't do the same? I don't think you care about me, but then still I give you everything that I have But I think that it's time for change, so I pray Can you take this all away? Like the life I lead today What did I do to deserve this pain? Cause I've fallen to my knees And I'm praying that you'll Guide me on the path that I choose to lead I know I don't have a clue But in truth, that's why I'm alive Can you take this all away? Like the life I lead today What did I do to deserve this pain? Oh, Lord Can you take this all away? Like the life I lead today What did I do to deserve this pain? Cause I've fallen to my knees And I'm praying that you'll Guide me on the path that I choose to lead I know I don't have a clue But in truth, that's why I'm alive |

The Weaker Save us from each other Because we can't protect ourselves The strong, they know we don't belong So they let us kill our own Eye for an eye Lie for a lie I had a dream that they shot me down Into the ocean and they let me drown But now the thought of me is haunting them And now they're too afraid to try Cause we are the weaker We are the broken hearts Who hide amongst the strong But we're the ones who'll carry on Nobody dares say goodbye And no one cares at all if they lie Is it just natural selection Or are we just brought here to die? Life seems so much easier when you're not living it anymore It's just a dream for those who weren't strong enough to survive Everything's okay they say We're just meant to fall Cause we are the weaker We are the broken hearts Who hide amongst the strong But we're the ones who'll carry on Nobody dares say goodbye And no one cares at all if they lie Is it just natural selection Or are we just brought here to die? Spoken in background: There is nothing holding us back now We have to fight for what we believe in, no matter the cost They think they're stronger, just look at their pride But there are two of us for every one of them For our pain fuels us, so raise thy sword Cause we are the weaker We are the broken hearts Who hide amongst the strong But we're the ones who'll carry on Nobody dares say goodbye And no one cares at all if they lie Is it just natural selection Or are we just brought here to die? No, no no no No, no... No, no no no No, no no... |

A World With No Sun So many nights without you Just had to think about you Just the thought of losing you Brings my fear again And the moonlight calls to me Telling me to take the light away Darkness covers me Now I can live peacefully In a world with no sun So now I watch the night fall Don't miss the sun at all Just the thought of losing you Brings my fear again And the moonlight calls to me Telling me to take the light away Darkness covers me Now I can live peacefully In a world with no sun Can you tell me what you feel? The cold light of the moon Our love is burning like the sun That doesn't rise anymore The starlight's shining in your eyes But even more than before They see our shadows by the moon On this dark ocean shore Just the thought of losing you Brings my fear again And the moonlight calls to me Telling me to take the light away Darkness covers me Now I can live peacefully In a world with no sun Edited by Invirion, Dec 19 2011, 05:26 PM.
