He asked me to write something for the pitch and fingers crossed for his film. It's a trainspotting type affair - these 2 worthies rob a convenience store but the old Indian who owns it puts a curse on them and it all hell breaks loose.
I understand this will not be to everyone's taste and will not be offended if you hate it !
Snapshot plans
I had one thought when I got to your door
And that was to change your mind
It's easy to make snapshot plans
That centuries cannot reverse
So you 'didn't like the way she looked at me'
I told you just to ignore it
But you had to go throw that glass in her face
And we fell like china in a bull shop
So my hearts racing a sprint and I'm following behind
I can see you through the door glass
I'm counting the steps and trying not to make snapshot plans
The doors opening as my hearts closing
And when I see you I know it's over
You look so broken : shocked at how easily things fall apart
I walk and turn away
It's funny how one second can define the years
heavens clarity represented in those stopwatch beats
But all I feel now is relief , grief and hope
I have butterflies deep in my soul
Walking home even the trees look different
Greener : I can see the dew shine like little diamonds
I never thought I'd owe so much to glass
The cut it made was deeper than love
