I would sign up but I fear I'd forget about it and I also don't like being told to write about. I hate deadlines too

[Blue.]

[Karma Chameleon]

Do you guys just write or do you actually record? I've recently recorded 3 tracks with a producer that I wrote

[Tymps.]

Since I write, sing, play piano and produce, I record my music

Here's the link to a song I wrote:
https://soundcloud.com/waynedawson/promise-me-this

Please give it a listen, would love to hear your thoughts guys

[Nait Phoenix]

^I love the melody and how well it connects with the lyrics. I'm iffy about the production, but it's super cool!

[Tymps.]

Dem vocals! Spot on!
Did you produce this yourself? There's many aspiring producers on ATRL who could produce your songs if you want

[Karma Chameleon]

Thanks guys!
And I don't produce myself, I paid for them to be produced myself from money I earned gigging/busking

[Nait Phoenix]

Okay, there is this song I've been writing since last night to a "dubstep-influenced" beat I made. Tell me what y'all think...

Scream

First Verse:
You think that it was smart to try and trick me like that
You got just what you wanted with that knife in my back
So, now you’re gonna pack it up and leave me to die
I wouldn’t let that fly and here’s the reason why
You never back an animal into a corner
And don’t you twist the knife, that’s called crossing the border
I’ll tell you once again, you better let me up
Or I’m just liable enough to not give two ****s ‘bout what I gonna do…

Hook:
I’ve done my share of reasonable
I thought that you were reachable
I knew how unbelievable
A love could seem
Don’t you turn your back on me
You haven’t seen the half of me
That would love more than happily
To make you scream

[Hugamari]

I don't think I ever shared this outside of Adam's iconic Asian blog, so here is it.

Take Your Leave

[V1]

I was there for you when everyone turned their back
Now that you turned away, how am I to react?
It was you and I when nobody cared at all
Now that I need you most, you’re there to watch me fall

[H]

But I’m not someone who quits
Or gives up so quick
I will not take being used

When you abused my trust
You just gave us up
All I wanted was the truth

[C]

Don’t lie to me; don’t try with me
I’m not the one you can deceive
You must be blind; you’ve lost your mind
If you think that I’ll believe

Your fairy tales
That ship has sailed
You bent the truth
You pushed your luck

Now that I see
You clearly
Never cared for me
You can take your leave

[V2]

I would take you in when everyone shut you out
You left me alone - tell me what that’s about
You can’t fix it now, when I have seen what you are
No, this isn’t how I wanted us to depart

[H]

But I’m not someone who quits
Or gives up so quick
I will not take being used

When you abused my trust
You just gave us up
All I wanted was the truth

I have never felt so wronged
Thought that I belonged
Guess everyone makes mistakes

And at the end of the day
What can I say?
Some things just can not be saved

[C]

Don’t lie to me; don’t try with me
I’m not the one you can deceive
You must be blind; you’ve lost your mind
If you think that I’ll believe

Your fairy tales
That ship has sailed
You bent the truth
You pushed your luck

Now that I see
You clearly
Never cared for me
You can take your leave

[B]
Never had I thought we would turn up like this
And to be honest, if I had just one wish
This wouldn’t happen and you’d still be my friend
Buy you know what they say - all good things must end

[C]

Don’t lie to me; don’t try with me
I’m not the one you can deceive
You must be blind; you’ve lost your mind
If you think that I’ll believe

Your fairy tales
That ship has sailed
You bent the truth
You pushed your luck

Now that I see
You clearly
Never cared for me

Don’t lie to me; don’t try with me
I’m not the one you can deceive
You must be blind; you’ve lost your mind
If you think that I’ll believe

Your fairy tales
That ship has sailed
You bent the truth
You pushed your luck

Now that I see
You clearly
Never cared for me
You can take your leave

Also, I hope you are working on a chorus for that Nait. I have a WIP to work on myself

Flawless Huga I wish I wrote myself Actually it sounds like something I would write

But waiT! I need feedback on these lyrics! They're due in music class in 2 days!

I have a melody and everything!

Dirt Road

Sitting quietly
Pretending that I can’t hear
All the yelling that
Is always hurting my ears
So I grabbed a bag
And decided I should jet
So I plotted escape
Thinking maybe they’ll forget

To check for me

I’m going down that old dirt road
I won’t make a sound
I don’t want to go home
I’m going down that old dirt road
Don’t want to be found
I don’t want to go home

So I packed my bags
With everything I could need
With some chocolate bars
And a few books to read
I reconsidered but
I decided it was best
To get away from all
Get the burden of my chest

So I just left

I’m going down that old dirt road
I won’t make a sound
I don’t want to go home
I’m going down that old dirt road
Don’t want to be found
I don’t want to go home

Maybe I’ll find a better place
Where all the memories can be erased
Where I can float off into space

I’m going down that old dirt road
I won’t make a sound
I don’t want to go home
I’m going down that old dirt road
Don’t want to be found
I don’t want to go home
I’m going down that old dirt road
I won’t make a sound
I don’t want to go home
I’m going down that old dirt road
Don’t want to be found
I don’t want to go home
