There's an old man outside my window and he's standing in the rain
I don't ask him anything but he keeps nodding
I avoid that window when I can but he will not leave
It's just like the first girl I fucked
She's waiting for something
But we are both still and alone
In the car
In the rain
I don't ask her anything
But she keeps nodding
Like the man that isn't there
Like the car I never owned
Like the girl I never fucked
But the rain the rain the rain is there and it always will be

lolz like I said

<----NOOB

I was going to tell you there was no indication of your title though. I just read a chapter on that while on the can. Coug, you need to be clearer about your titles or you'll never break through.
 
I hate to say it, but John Bon Jovi is probably one of the most successful 'formula' type writers of our generation. If you look at his massive list of hits, it almost cannot be denied.

Wanted Dead or Alive; It's My Life etc.

man, that guy should have stopped after She's a Little Runaway. What a bunch of horrible shit, It's my Life is high on the shit list. But that song where he says: "who says you cant go home" about 100X is Poison worthy. Something this horrible can not be suggested in any book can it? :dunno:
 
I am really proud of the songwriting on the CD I'm making. I don't see it having even a remote chance of any kind of commercial success - well, maybe one song. But it's good to do something exactly the way I want it done anyway (within the limitations of my abilities).

So I keep telling myself.
 
Vinyl sounds best to my ears because I like the levels on vinyl, but I also have a Nakamichi cassette deck and at times I prefer it for deep tones. MP3's sound absolutely terrible at this point but of course they are the most convenient.
