This one came to me after seeing some discussions on what people make of trivial day-to-day experiences.
Seems that all of us perceive similar things very differently, so this piece is from a standpoint of someone - very self-aware one-sidedly
The parts in () are the musical ideas and not part of the song's text.

Additionally, a question to those that read my songs - would this song benefit if I add images that enhance/explain the context?


Pre-song mood-intro
(crowd chanting “Kill” faster and faster)

Chorus (music - Slow, deep drum beat):

Live or die - Decision time
Live or die - Judge the crime
Life or death - You must be just
What you decide - Forever lasts

Verse1 (music - slow strings, singing with deep male voice):
The life of emperor, struggle all the way
It’s comedy and drama, nevertheless a play
You judge the people’s worth, white as snow your spear
They look at sacred tablets, widened eyes with fear

Pre-chorus 1 (thunder, the music stops, read it with Gandalf's voice ):

I judge you now! Your work worth none!
The thumb is down, and now be-gone!

Chorus (music - Slow, deep drum beat with strings):
Live or die - Decision time
Live or die - Judge the crime
Life or death - You must be just
What you decide - Forever lasts

Verse 2:
It’s time for conquest now, invading land of faces
The crowds of the book, their art is going places
You sense black magic’s reek, you have no power here
Protected from your wrath, their faces show no fear

Pre-chorus 2:

Curses thee Faces! Your work worth none!
Can’t thumb it down! So I’m gone!

Chorus (music - Slow, deep drum beat with strings):
Live or die - Decision time
Live or die - Judge the crime
Life or death - You must be just
What you decide - Forever lasts

It reads quite interesting.
I'm curious as to what the finished piece will sound like.
Your approach is unique to me.
I hope this reaches completion.

   Hello,
      I'll say one thing for you my friend, you are very prolific. I liked your last post, which i'm sorry to say i never got around to commenting on, but i'm not so sure about this one. You're quite an individual, unlike anyone else on this forum. This may work better when the music is added, but as it sits on paper, it doesn't really work for me, though i'm struggling to come up with the words to really say why. I know English is not your native language, so you deserve lots of credit for the way you communicate. Don't be put off by the negativity, just keep writing them and posting them, you have talent, and i'm sure the best is yet to come.

Hey Vintage54,

English is not my first language but I would like to make it less obvious

In regards to this song, what gives it away?

thanks!

I for one have to totally agree with the words of Vintage re your lyrics/song(s)
Apart from his line...
That "You are quite an individual and 'unlike' anyone else upon this Forum" etc etc etc
Hmmm??? ... I for one disagree :-)

But like he said...
Keep at...
Keep trying...
Keep posting...
