Day 1 - Cutlery Park

So the subject and idea of this song was discussed yesterday while on the bus with my sister and my friend Colin it was soo random that I just HAD to write about it.

I woke up this morning at 5am (for work) and this is what came out . . . . I know i know you can't even read it, right. check the bottom out I tried to write while walking to work . . . unsuccessfully.

While at work ideas came to me so i wrote it down and when I came home after work I just got into this really good flow and just kept writing I had changed it a bit from the first draft . . .

I realize you MIGHT not be able to read it here either but I like to show what my notebook looks like and how messy I can be :)

here are the lyrics

verse 1- I walk in the dark through cutlery park

with forks, sharp knives, and spoons

the moon reflects off silver and steel

there's voices in the wind

verse 2- This place is not what you would expect

this place is something else

the buzzing of the street lights

send shivers to my spine

chorus 1- I think that I'm alone here

my breath gets shallow still

my heart can't take the rest of this world

there's nothing to reveal

verse 3- I'm searching for a light

I look for what is right

I know that I was wrong

in thinking I was strong 

chorus 2 - I thought I was alone here

my breath stays shallow still 

my heart beat races faster now 

I can't move

verse 4- I walk in the dark through cutlery park 

waiting for morning to come

the moon reflects off silver and steel 

this nightmare's almost done

The best way I can describe it is a Tim Burton-esque. The images I see are a cemetery like scene but exaggerated like in The Nightmare before Christmas. I also had Laura Marling's Night Terror in mind.

I think day 1 went well. Let's see what day 2 brings.
