The Creative thread calling all Artists!

Gracie · 11 Apr 2006, 20:24

Hi

Thought I'd make a thread for people who consider themselves poets or songwriters or Artists. Here's my song. See what you make of it?
And whether you like it?

Kind critismn always appreciated. Anyone like this thread idea?! It's like the creative thread. People have said this song is very Steinman like.

Let me know what you think?This thread could be cool.

Maybe post up Bat 3 artwork things like that. Maybe a good idea maybe not.
You know be creative lets see what we can make, draw, do?!!?

Bit of creative fun!!!!......

Let the creative juices flow!....

Meat and Jim Steinman have always had creative fans! Thought it was a neat idea!

I have been imagining what the artwork will be like for BAT 3.

The beat is yours forever!
Grace

+Say A Prayer+
Lyrics By Grace Shackleton

As the sun blinds you in its wake
As it falls back in your sleep
Wrap your dreams so tight
In the deep of the night

Where you can hear the echoes of the city streets
See the stars shine on the neon river
Separated by right or wrong
Ain’t no need to fight
You keep me strong
You pull me through it all
One by one watch them fall
Repeated in the politics
Remains of yesterday chained around your neck
Follow in your wake
Let all your dreams be reborn
Nothing to give?
Then there would be nothing to take

(Chorus :)

Say a prayer
Say it loud Say it clear for the voices of freedom to hear
Never give up
It’s in your soul
So deep
New day and a new dawn

Your dreams are safe tonight
Let your dreams take flight
Let your dreams be reborn
No wings ever be torn

(Chorus :)

Say a prayer
Say it loud Say it clear for the voices of freedom to hear
Never give up
It’s in your soul
So deep
New day and a new dawn
It’s in your soul
So deep
Where you can hear the echoes on the city streets
See the stars shine on the neon river

Nothing to give?
Then there would be noting to take

i got a lot things like that, but there all german. Maybe i will sit down and write an english version, but here´s first the idea of it, it whould be a typical Meat and Jim song:

The Titel:
A lonely heart (is much better than a broken one)

I love a girl
but i´m too shy to tell it to her
but i spend a lot of time with her
and we are becoming friends
good friends
but i still love her
and one day i tell it to her,
because i know that she likes me
and she could maybe love me
But she says no
and she breaks my heart
and i still live around her,
but she never talks to me again
(or she moves and i never see her again)

This whould be a very sad song, because it tells the audience, that you can lose much if you try, insted of the word, that someone who tries can win or lose and someone, who whouldn´t try already lost.

What do you think about this?

I know sat down and wrote some lyrics
It´s now much longer than i thought, and it got some differtent song-parts, like the dashboard, but i will just post it.
What do you think of it?
As melody should be taken something like it just wont quit, very different meaning, but a good meloy

Working title:
A lonely heart (is much better than a broken one)

(slowly sung)
It was just another ordinary day
when I saw you on our old school yard
just one look in your eyes and i fall in love
but i can´t tell it to your face
although i want it deep in my heart
yes i can´t tell it to your face
´cause i´m afraid of your answer

But i know deep it within my heart
i was made for you and you were made for me
but i can´t tell it to your face
´cause i´m afraid of your answer

So the time went by
and we´re becoming friends
closer than anyone else

(powerful)
I know you like me
And I know I love you
...
Is there so much difference?

(slowly)
now that was some years ago
and i´m still living by your side
and yes, i think the time, it is right
My feelings, now i just can´t hide
anymore...

Screaming:
And babe i have to tell ya
We know such a long time
and we are good friends
But i want more!
Yes I want more!
´Cause I´m in love with you
since i saw you first time
I´m in love with you
since You live in my town
it feels like a dream
when I´m by your side
And tell me baby
Do you feel the same?

(Stop all instruments)

(slowly again)
That was the last time i saw You
And now I know I´ll never see you again
´cause You moved outta town and outta my life
And my heart is now a broken one

And people let me tell you:
A lonely heart
is much better than a broken one
Don´t try anything
it just can´t go right
it always goes wrong

So, keep on hide-
-ing, your feeling
´cause a lonely heart
is much better than a broken one
And enjoy the time by her side
And love her secret in your heart
because a lonely heart
is much better than a broken one

that´s the only guaranty, that´s what this is all about
And it´s a never ending lunch break
everone got cheese and why not me?
This Break´s a lemon and I want my cheese BACK!
And If you find it at the end
oh the break is over BACK TO CLASS
I couldn´t eat my cheese I want my Cheese now Back!

What about fruits?
They´re defective!
They´re always rotting to fast!

What about ice?
It´s defective!
It´s everytime melting away.

And what about your fruitgum?
It´s defective!
All the flavor is out to fast

And what about Meatloaf?
It´s defictive!
I DON`T THINK THIS TASTES GOOOD!!!

Thatsway
I want
my
Cheese
BAAAAAAAAACK!!!
