  • Listening to: nothing
  • Reading: Fruits Basket manga (up to vol.13)

ok.. uh!!.. this is scarey! *cries*


I'm no artist.. but i write songs SO i'm gunna start putting some of them on DA.
Just so i have something to be proud of heehee.

i this song was written by me at maybe half way through 06.. or earlier? i don't remember.. but this was when songwriting became an emotional release.. so it's like my first really deep song!
Looking back on it now is weird.. and i really hate the chorus! lol oh well i hope you see some better differences in future songs.

i was laying in bed and i saw a tiny dot of light through my certains, and all of a sudden lyrics were sprouting into my head! So i got my weary head up and wrote a song i named "the dimming light" (as a metaphore it totally makes scense ok?) It was around the time someone really close took a plane and left a long way away. Some lyrics are directed at myself because of the pitty and regret i have (i hope this makes scense to you)
All the questions in the lyrics are basically capturing the idea of confusion.

blah blah blah.. i'm now just stalling because i'm nervous :'(.
here's my song..

The Dimming Light - Hayley Manwaring

Verse1
Are we really the ones who choose our paths?
Are our mistakes in things we lack?
We all are passing, those who are casting out through love and hate.
Are we really the ones who have to provail?
When most stand back to watch us fail,
in the end it all comes down to fate (let it all pass us by)

Chorus
Do you know that i'm-
Try ing not to forget your face
Your so far away now i'm not kept safe
I can't see all these things i can't take
Just know that i'll wait
As your light fades away

Verse2
I look up against this wall
against my will against it all
They say i won't last, through all my past (<<i think only i can understand that line lol)
But i swear i'll push on through,
We live to learn, we grow we yearn we forsee things for more than they're worth.
If you ever die on the other side
Do you think you could spare the time to say goodbye.. goddbye (repeted)

(Chorus)

So spare the time we have to say goodbye.

------------------------------------------------------------------------


THATS IT! *wheeze*

I spose i should share some of my deep beliefs in song writing.

First of all i do try hard to steer aawy from cliche's, but i also belive for someone to connect to a song and interpret them their own way, these lines are needed for the song to be more open to the public.
I don't like repetive choruses, BUT in a song i've recently writen the style of music makes it ok to do so.

I can't think of anymore of my beliefs at the moment but as i post more songs these will become clearer to you.

Please let me know what you think!

Thankyou! xoxoxoxox MoMo

(do i sound like a poetic emo child? i hope not)
