Just had a few creative minites and wrote this down. It probably takes it's inspiration from Beast In Black's "Blind and Frozen", at least musically with the chorus (not the same though - am not plaigarising them! It's just got the same "feel" to it).
Althouigh I just realised it probably did somewhat plaigarise one of my own songs from years ago, at least with the verses. Will have to change how it sounds in my head slightly I think.
Lyrically I just started off with the first line and developed it from that. Had no real clear vision of where I was going with it, just thought I see where it took me. Just had a general idea of somebody trying to make themselves out to be more than they are and only making problems for themselves.
WHITE LIE
Verse
I told a little white lie
On a whim and now I
Watch the world at my feet slip away
I made a terrible choice
To give the rumour a voice
But I ended up fanning the flames
Verse
I played a game with your heart
But I tore it apart
Never thought it was more than a joke
But in the end it backfired
And it only transpired
I was losing it all as I spoke
Chorus
Now there’s nothing to say
I have thrown it away
I’m a fool with a lesson to learn
Now there’s no turning back
You have gone. That is that
And there’s no way that you will return
I truly got burned
Verse
I told a little white lie
It seemed so fun at the time
It was the frying pan into the fire
I took the love that you gave
And turned it into a game
I never meant to turn into a liar
Chorus
Now there’s nothing to say
I have thrown it away
I’m a fool with a lesson to learn
Now there’s no turning back
You have gone. That is that
And there’s no way that you will return
I truly got burned
INSTRUMENTAL
Verse
I told a little white lie
Which blew up every time I
Tried to make myself more than I am
It grew wilder than wild
And every time that I smiled
It seemed the wilder the flames all got fanned
Chorus
Now there’s nothing to say
I have thrown it away
I’m a fool with a lesson to learn
Now there’s no turning back
You have gone. That is that
And there’s no way that you will return
Chorus
No there’s nothing to say
I have thrown it away
I’m a fool with a lesson to learn
Now there’s no turning back
You have gone. That is that
And there’s no way that you will return
Chorus
So there’s nothing to say
I have thrown it away
I’m a fool with a lesson to learn
Now there’s no turning back
You have gone. That is that
And there’s no way that you will return
I truly got burned
