Original Songs / we watch them burn while they ...

Last post by thetworegs - Today at 03:23:42 PM

It was raining today so no gardening so I finally decided to start experimenting with my oil painting to find that the kids had nicked all my brushes so it was back to the keyboard and guitars and this one came out ........

Well she danced amongst the flowers til the day that she died
Untrust worthy unfaithfull is what he testified
No amount of belief will asway his guilt
The cuckolds soul could not be rebuilt

We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames

Now She dances amongst the roses everyday
Moving to a beat as her ashes  float away
The man of the cloth preaches a prayer
for the one who got lost who is no longer there

We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames

The saviour is back theres a sermon on the mount
To tell the  the unbeleaver what the truth is about
The lyer sits quiet too afraid to speak
While the barman pulls a beer for the one who critiques

We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames

The judge hands out time like the speaking clock
While the innocent parties laugh and mock
Hemlock is the drink of the day
As the hangman sweats watching the bodies sway

We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames
We watch them burn
while they are in flames

Original Songs / Tell Me No Lies-Original

Last post by Johnbee - Today at 02:10:48 PM

Hot off the press!  Hope you enjoy.

There is something I need to ask you
I need to know
Have you been telling me the truth
when you say you want only me?
I have reason to think
it never was as good as I thought
You say you love me but
your eyes have been growing so cold

Tell me no lies
Don't tell me what you think I want to hear
I won't compromise accepting a false hope
It's got to be real
I can't wait my whole life through
hoping I can believe you
Let me know the truth right now.

Somehow it doesn't feel the same as it used to feel
Where has the urgency to be with me gone?
It's no longer there
Most of the time when I look into your eyes
you quickly turn away
Do I detect a trace of a tear coming forth?
You don't want to stay

Tell me no lies.
If you no longer want me you've got to say so
Please don't play this game
I can tell you no longer feel the same
I won't waste so many years hoping you're not deceiving me
Please don't tell me I'm all wrong

Tell me no lies
Don't tell me things you think I want to hear
I won't compromise.  I won't accept your excuses
It's got to be real
I won't spend my whole life through wondering if I'm second best
You'll break my heart like all the rest

General Discussion / Re: What are you listening to ...

This popped into my YouTube feed - and I thought it is a really great song. Not really listened to Schenker for years, but his playing is great on this, not fast, but great. An Bonnet delivers a storm.

Just for Laughs / Re: Public service announcemen...

I have quite a few guitars, including some expensive pro American made instruments but I still love my JV Fender Squire strat (it has a fender headstock). I've had it for 40 years - and is a great instrument built properly. Its never had any fret sprout in all that time, that means that the wood was cared for properly. Lovely instrument and stands up easily against my more expensive models. A good guitar is a good guitar irrespective of the brand.

I had similar issue with file size, specifically with a track I had that was over 7mins. I just wound up doing a different mixdown at a lower quality specifically for the site which worked well enough.

Thanks for the welcome and explaining the rules.
The links and songs I were trying to post are current, just released as a complilation EP with new mixes.
Unfortunately all MP3 versions I have are larger than 7Mb, and I have tried attaching a link to an mp3 without much success. I think 7Mb is too restrictive by modern standards if I may say so,
I would have liked to be part of the community but it doesn;t appear to be working out well.
Thanks for your time
