THOUGHTS ABOUT WRITING A LOVE SONG
#1
There are millions of love songs
written since the dawn of man;
many have been lost
many still roam the land.
Every love song is special
written from desire in the heart
each one is about unique love
how and where it starts.
CHORUS
If I could write a love song
it would be about you;
it would contain your name
and my promise to be true.
If I could write a love song
I would sing it every day,
to remind us both
that our love is here to stay.

MAKE BELIEVE
Verse 1:
I know that I made a lot of mistakes
and you say it's too late
to try and fix things
and I'm trying to start a fresh anew
but you keep telling me we're through
and I keep telling you
Chorus:
Why can't we just pretend
so we can start over again
like things never happened
but no matter how hard I try for us to be
it'll always just be make believe
it'll always just be make believe
Verse 2:
I really can understand why
you can't get over what I did
but I realize it hurts,...

`~.MOËT.~`
~~…MOËT…~~~
G F C, D C G
Promises made in the dark, forever long ago told me,
It was written in the stars that I would want you
Before you ever wondered in front of my eyes,
The missing twin flame inside of me started burning, the moment I seen into your crystal brown eyes
Yes it was written that I would always love you, Man they got me hypnotized
What did the rushing waters take away love,
Mí Vída; Open up, Your heart, let me see
Sailing away below the fire moon an amethyst skylines
Let the evenin breeze tell you, along purple blue wine dark oceans,...

This Litte Piggy
This Little Piggy went to market this Little Piggy still trying to find her way back home
Where once upon a time her evil sisters and mother turned their back on her existence leaving her all alone
In her father’s eyes she never measured up
Where can a small child get love if it is not given from the crown of her generational cup
No matter how hard she tried, dysfunctional and slightly obese
Hiding her true self behind baggish boyish clothes worn down to her knees
To everyone else she was a mistake, a disgrace, now scarred face, and lack luster of no...

A Senryú Ode To Somewhere Over The Rainbow
Somewhere bluebirds fly
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I

Slaughtering Song Lyrics / Unusual Remixes
Part 1:
Aladdin’s “A Whole New World”
+ “Reading Rainbow” mashup.
Books can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, honest, now when did
You last dream of books to buy?
Books can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic book to read
No one to tell us “No!”
Or question us
“You sure you need another?”
A whole new book
A dazzling place we never knew ...
Aladdin’s “A Whole New World”

Onzijnen
Another Dutch/English one:
Er is veel eer gerelateerd geweld
Tegen Syrische vrouwen en meisjes
Mogelijk ook nog femicide
Toch nog sex toerisme reisjes?
Thailand spant de kroon - klinkt morbide
Hoe je als man munt uit hun kruis kunt slaan
Het uithuwelijken is bonafide
Gegadigden komen te voet en gaan
Pijlsnel als ze horen hoeveel geld…..
Beschaving komt al gauw in het nauw
Wie neemt het op voor de Syrische vrouw
W9jan2024
There is a lot of honor-related violence ...

Endless Dream
It's like we're caught in a matrix
Trapped in an empty paradise
We look alive on the outside
But we're dead... asleep inside
Is it just an endless dream
(What if I wake up)
Who am I supposed to be
(Will I self-destruct)
Have I lost the best of me
(Close my heart, curl up)
Floating in this endless dream
(Trying to stay numb)
As stars fall in the water
We try to lose our chains
The things they never meant to teach us
Only the hurt remains
Is it just an endless dream
(What if I wake up) ...
Trapped in an empty paradise
We look alive on the outside
But we're dead... asleep inside
Is it just an endless dream
(What if I wake up)

Have I lost the best of me
(Close my heart, curl up)
Floating in this endless dream
(Trying to stay numb)
As stars fall in the water
We try to lose our chains
The things they never meant to teach us
Only the hurt remains
Is it just an endless dream
(What if I wake up) ...

Cracked Ribs
When I inhale
It’s so painful
When I exhale
It’s still stressful
I can’t even sigh
How can something
So hurtful
Keep me alive
It hurts to breathe
And yet I’m still here
Words have a way of
Pushing me down
They have their way
Of not making a sound
My hearts too big
It doesn’t fit
But forgiveness
Expands brittle ribs
His words, they crack my ribs
His works, they crack my ribs
Someone
Please make it stop
Someone
Please help me call the cops ...

Get Off My Fuchsia
Seduced by the night's scented fuchsia of high-octane
You may have a Smart Phone but I have bone
"Today's music ain't got the same soul"
Touched by your cricket on a Knucklehead Harley
Protein makes one "boogie on down"
Listening to "Old Time Rock & Roll"
Nothing gives a slice of life like profane
Formaldehyde doesn't bring any pain
Seduced by the night's scented fuchsia of high-octane
You may have a Smart Phone but I have bone
"Today's music ain't got the same soul"
Touched by your cricket on a Knucklehead Harley
Protein makes one "boogie on down"
Listening to "Old Time Rock & Roll"
Nothing gives a slice of life like profane
Formaldehyde doesn't bring any pain
Seduced by the night's scented fuchsia of high-octane

Maybe We Can Get It Right (This Time)
You've loved me and you've left me
Way too many times
And when it seems this time
I've gotten you off my mind
You come back for another try
Chorus
What makes you think that we'll
Get it right this time and for once
It won't be a rocky ride
Tell me 'cause I really love you so
Can I get a whisper of the words
I love you and I've missed you
And you won't be leaving me this time
Because each time we try and fail
I feel so blue inside
What makes you think that we'll
Get it right...
Way too many times
And when it seems this time
I've gotten you off my mind
You come back for another try
Chorus
What makes you think that we'll
Get it right this time and for once
It won't be a rocky ride
Tell me 'cause I really love you so
Can I get a whisper of the words
I love you and I've missed you
And you won't be leaving me this time
Because each time we try and fail
I feel so blue inside
What makes you think that we'll
Get it right...

Danxing to DJbeJay
Might as well get sweaty girl,
here,
now, on the danxe floor
cuz the way you're grinding
makes me think your mind issss...
Might as well get sweaty girl,
here, on the dance floor,
because I think we agree
we're gonna take these sweaty bodies
Back to my place.
*Danxing was an avcidental misspell, but I left it.
**DJbeJay is my alter-ego
