Always me

back-story: I was asked by a friend to write a song. Now i know nothing about songwriting. The only sort of lyrical ability i have is to hammer out lines that make no sense to anyone else and don't rhyme by any stretch of the imagination. It came out corny and it will stay corny. i can't fix it (i was given a general idea to work with so i had to stick to it broadly). anyway, i sent it to my friend who never replied my message or ever acknowledged receipt of the song so it's even worse than i thought it was, and i had thought it was bad to start off with. anyway, here it is. in all it's cheesy glory.

Feel me now

Run with me now

Hear me shout out in sheer disbelief

Trust in me


…It was always me

Epiphanous rambling

I went for a bit of a walk this morning. The silly cat wakes me up at 5.30 on the dot anyway, demanding food, so I thought might as well and...
