Here is a song regarding my hero, as it were. It is everything I live for. But the lyric needs work.
**
Beautiful and strange
Never quite the same
A tear beneath an eye
A line that fades with time
An uninviting path
A song that never lasts
But forever heeds the beauty
Of a voice upon the wind
You make me tread the earth
And swim amongst the seas
And ponder my religion
Though you don't know what that means
The shadow on my heart
Makes me more a man
I've come to learn the beauty
That sorrow can command
The strength that you posess
You never yield in full
And now I've found a power
that cannot be overcome

Your thoughts and comments appreciated.

Hey P.. Good job.. I like it too. I'd like to know if you have a chord progression for it? Also, who was it written about out of curiousity?

Been racking my brain cell trying to figure out who this was about....
I liked it the first time I read it, like it even more now I actually know who it's about...in a way, I wish you hadn't told us, it was nicely enigmatic....
only thing I can find fault with is the rhyming scheme..but hell, who said songs had to rhyme anyway!!!
Nice job, Pete.
:D :D :D

I was thinking about the rhyming scheme myself. I thought perhaps there should be more form to it. But there were two reasons why I didn't bother changing it. The first is exactly as you said Vic, songs don't absolutly have to rhyme. The second is that I thought the random nature of the scheme half echoes the subject.
Thanks,
Pete. :)
