i wrote this together with a friend.
i suppose it's about isolation and being and feeling out of place.

Any kind of Feedback would be most welcome



Whistles n' Bells



Wasting time, smoking cigarettes. Cigarettes
All is fine, she's got no regrets. No regrets
Everyone seems to be mad
Dressed to the nines, heart shaped lips, no-one to kiss
Whistles n bells, n' no more than this, more than this
Emptiness sells, blinking lights

Listen, I'm a natural, feel like an animal in a zoo
Next to impossible, almost too beautiful to be true
'til it happens to you

Lately, I've been eating brown leaves, morning star
He's all I need, watching over me, over me
Everyone seems to be mad
Wishin' I knew what the matter was, matter was
You cannot tell what knowing does, knowing does
Whistles n' bells, blinking lights

Maybe I'm an accident, passersby are standing around
One forgotten elephant the circus has long left town
And I'm still around

Listen to the fork-tongued or the sweet song mockingbird
All you want is your fun, come the dawn y'seem so absurd
Hey, have you not heard?

Everyone seems to be mad
Whistles n' bells, blinking lights.

It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

Don't eat the yellow snow

And there you have it.

Hey, I thought I'd mention the guidelines...don't want you to get in trouble with the forum cops! You're about a half week too early with this posting, if I'm seeing the dates on your posts correctly. If I'm wrong, just ignore me.  ;D

No harm done, I'm sure. I think a few of us have done the same thing when we first started posting. And the "forum cops" are actually pretty easy to get along with (except for with the rare person who blatantly ignores the guidelines regardless of warnings, etc).

I think we're all a friendly and supportive bunch, for the most part. :)

Hi Rightly,
kept my interest all the way through with the interesting chord changes and the way you fit the lyrics including the repeats.
Hope Williams's doing fine
Dramatic
:)
