Description:
This is the first song I really ever completed. It has evolved quite a bit since I wrote it this summer.Lyrics:
there is an old lady asleep on a benchwith a newspaper by her side and old man behind her with his hands to his face with a look he is trying to hide and then there is me at a quarter to three in the morning, i dont wanna die the tides rolling in on the back of the wind and gravity is not on my side chorus there is an old lady asleep on a bench with a newspaper by her side she crashed into me ten minutes before in the left turning lane at the light i thought about growing old and grey maybe someday losing my mind but a song on the radio made me feel young as the signal turned from red to a green light chorus there is an old lady in a funeral home later buried as the day turned to night And a bench at a park where a newspaper started to take the evening breeze for a ride but the old man remains and he mutters her name and he argues quietly with the sky he picks up the paper, lies down on the bench ten minutes later closes his eyes chorus Outro oh my god there is no god here no one told the old lady now Hardware:

outro, and the meat of the piece. I liked the ending, but
it's too dissimilar from the rest of the song. Same with the
intro. An "intro" should do just that, introduce us to the
piece in some way. It doesn't have to be the chorus or part
of the verse, but it should prepare the way. Also, the
guitar is so out of tune that it really was distracting.
But, keep writing, keep experimenting, keep hitting the
record button.
