there is a song that i sort of have in mind, but..not really.
well, i've been playing this "song" on my guitar for a really really long time now...almost two years since i originally made it up? I...don't know. maybe not that long...but the thing is, i've been playing it, and i can definitely see how it can be a really good song. IF i can find the time write some lyrics for it.
i know what they'll sound like musically...i have a good idea of what the verses will sound like, and the refrain...a bridge may or may not exist yet, we'll see.
the thing is, the makeup of this music makes me think that it'll be more of a story / ballad-type thing than what i usually do....super-original blueplan thoughts make me think of some sort of town in some sort of trouble. but i'm not great at writing things outside of my own perspective, and making up stories is a rather weak point. but the construct of the music is asking me to do just that. so...we'll see if anyhting eventually comes of it.
i think the fact that i'm at least thinking in this direction means i may have something by the end of the year. after all...i really love the music i have for this, and it has the makings to be a really great song, something to be proud of. something on par with "Stars" and "Mind". maybe better. so if i think it through enough, and really work on it, it can be.
the main thing, however, is that i just love playing it. i'v been playing it a lot in the past two weeks. methinks i'll play it again right now.
i may leave this be until i'm back in Maryland, on my own, and have more time to collect my own thoughts.
