Default I like, recorded a song .. hooraah

I haven't actually successfully written a song in aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages.... BUT about a month ago, i popped out with one. It's called "The Chant of a Lonely March"

Last sunday, me and my lovely friend Jon just saw each other for the first time in a long time, and recorded it!

http://www.sendspace.com/file/8z4e39

There’s a man on the steeple in town without a name
where the people all say that he is insane
and downward he sings of beautiful things
that he would give to be free and sings:

"Rescue me
rescue me”

But they walk on and northward
And they talk on and onwards
to school, to work,
to work, to school
their children
for work to work.

Chorus:

"This is the way
That everybody goes
Nobody cares
Nobody Knows"


The pied piper and his pipe with a tune
leads the march, and the evening croon,
the song is love and the song is fear
sung by children with well dusted ears;

“Rescue us
Rescue us”

(Chorus x2)

The Losers and the lovers
are all the same as each other
some are wild and some are tame
the march looks different but the song is the same
(x2)

(Chorus x2)

I wish I didn’t have to do as he called
and dance by the notes or be trampled in the brawl
I still can’t sleep for that song in my head
It’s in my water, my air, my gruel and my bread.

hehe, awesome. I can't hear it too well because of the recording and my amazingly wank speakers, but it's a good song, the lyrics are great
