Description:
This tune is another one for the FAWM.org challenge. I was trying to see how many clichés I could get into a song but I didn't want to make it just a list. It turns out, clichés have so much meaning trapped in them, it's not that hard to do! I also tried to make the music very cliché... so it's sorta 50's sounding? I don't know...Oh... please forgive the falsetto! Lyrics:
I know I'm grasping for strawsbut I'm not out of the woods Can't you drop me a line now maybe? Rome wasn't built in a day And you've got time on your hands Please don't wash your hands of me baby? I hope your light at the end of the tunnel is on for me I've got my head in the clouds and it's raining - But don't rain on my parade and cause me misery Chorus: I'm not afraid of clichés Because when push comes to shove Anything worth saying just goes that way I'm not afraid of clichés Because when push comes to shove You don't hear what I try to convey, no matter what I say Now I'm out on a limb And your free as a bird But please don't do anything that I wouldn't do I remember a time When a bird in the hand Was worth two in the bush - but I have none of you Every rose has it's thorn and your thorn is stuck in my side Every dog has his day and I'm barking up the wrong tree, trying hard to swallow all my pride Chorus I'm at the end of my rope, quickly falling through the cracks of your cold empty heart of stone They say it's better to have loved and lost then to not love at all, but I'm not not lost - you've just left me alone Chorus |

We seem to be living in an Age of Cliche, so this is probably a perfect song for the times we find ourselves in.
The music is a perfect fit for the lyrics - nice job.
