I went over to my good friend Mark's house last night. He wanted to write a song. That usually means he as a song pretty much done and needs a little help finishing it. Which is fine.
What I most enjoy in this ugly little life is helping other people achieve things. It means way more than to me than anything I could achieve for myself. Collaboration, to that point suits me well.
When we're talking lyrics and music it particularly suits me because I'm usually pretty decent at the hook which is what seems to stump most would be writers.
so without further ado:
Take some time to remember
take some time to reflect
people places and my past
Dreams I haven't seen yet
Sometimes i wonder
Where I might be
Different paths chosen
Things I might've done, might've seen
life takes you over, this I know
keeps rollin', faster than I wanna go
I can't hold on
some dreams are better left behind
I thank god
I held on to better things - better things
Dreams of a young man
fast cars and roads that never end
sky so big you wish you could fly
back seats, you and I
guitar riffs, songs to play
up the charts, maybe all the way
but a life growing here with you
was bigger than any stage i could play
life takes you over, this I know
keeps rollin', faster than I wanna go
I can't hold on
some dreams, better left behind
I thank god
I held on to better things, better things.

I actually like that quite a bit. You know what you should do, tho? You should start including MP3 files so we can hear the music that goes with the lyrics, ya know? See you next weekend, bud.
