Love this. It is good poetry or a short story and works great as a song. I love lyrics done in this style and one of our songs called Depressive Minds flows as a story. Good use of language and some well thought out passages of words. I'm a big fan of lyrics and it's why all our songs and even our metal songs have to be audible. If the singer screams I want to be able to pick out the words. This is a great lyrical piece. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Thank you, I also think its important that lyrics be there for something to relate to, otherwise vocals just become another instrument and you lose the dimension of having something interesting to say and for people to absorb. I especially like tales or lyrics with relevance to something, so that there is an actual emotion or driving force behind what is being said, as much as I am a fan of fantasy fiction I like to keep lyrics grounded in some form of reality, no matter how metaphorical they become.

I hope that your band's music is as good as your writting P.S: Hope you liked my interpretation xD Cheers You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I initially wrote this as a piece about manipulation in society, politicians are always whispering fears into our ears, planting words in our mind - they are the voices, I see these fears as just an illusion, the illusion here is the wolf, the "enemy" in our own back gardens, how it never actually poses a threat in itself, yet we are scared and we run, in running we unlock the key to our freedoms or our liberties, thus the line: "Our freedom ran as wild As our imaginations" We run towards what we think is peace and prosperity - the white light of absolution, but we are eventually tricked, trapped and manipulated into doing what someone else wishes us too, this is the story, but it also serves its double purpose as metaphor of what I see happening in the world today.

Thanks for the explanation, it was more complexed that I imagined...I dare to callyou a gifted writter xD Hehe, I just read quite a lot and take notes on what I see and hear every day, eventually the notes culminate into some lyrics that I either continue with or drop because they're not up to scratch, its like playing guitar (for me anyway), the more techniques, styles and ideas you know the more complex you can make your music but you have to write your riffs and seperate the good from the bad and then eventually make a song. I'm no master of English by any means, I just enjoy doing this sort of stuff You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
