Scratch those lyrics. I'll use them for something else. I started the piano piece of it today. I wrote some stuff down on a piece of paper, and I'm hoping like hell I don't forget it all and be like "What the fuck does this mean? How did I play this thing?" Because I don't have piano to play at home, I have to play anywhere I can find one.
Concerning the lyrics, however. Once I'm done writing the piano portion of the song, and have maybe a rough recording to work with, or even just a memory of what the tempo is like, I'm going to start entirely new lyrics.
I'm hoping it will be a good piece. I'm trying to write it less with my brain and more with my heart. My brain just needs to tell my fingers where to go, and what I'm hearing, and if it all sounds nice together. My heart has to do most of the work. Not only does it have to keep the blood flowing in my body, but it has to tell me if what I'm playing is what I want the song to feel like. Are these notes portraying my emotions correctly? Can you get a glimpse of who I am from the sound of the music? Stuff like that. You know, the important stuff.
