I can't hold the weight of the world anymore 
Can I please hold you

Turn Off The TV

The First Time You Broke My Heart

Submitted To Spintunes Songwriting Competition.  Theme is guilty pleasures.
I am the king pin now
Cops and criminals give me no rest

Heavy is my crown
I take challengers to the death

The number one outlaw I have what it takes
But once in a while I need a break

Secret desire
Secret desire
No one knows my secret desire
Oh little precious so furry and fat
Secret desire
Internet cats

My troubles disappear
When taco tongue Tuesday rolls around

I’d lose respect and fear
If they found out I text Colonel Meow

The hardcore king blows off steam
Reading the I Can Haz Cheezburger Memes

Secret desire
Secret desire
No one knows my secret desire
Oh little precious so furry and fat
Secret desire
Internet cats

He’s playing piano like a person!  Look!
Ah ha ha ha ha ha

Secret desire
Secret desire
No one can know my secret desire
Oh little precious so furry and fat
my secret desire
Internet cats


Secret Desire

This track is my entry into the SpinTunes #11 Round 3 Challenge: 

Greek Chorus - Write a song with no chorus based on an ancient mythological figure/story. You must identify the mythological figure in your email when you submit your entry. (2 minute minimum length) (your submission is due by Sunday, Feburary 21st 11:59PM) 

Examples of Mythological songs include "Flight of Icarus" by Iron Maiden, "Rhiannon" by Fleetwood Mac, and "A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Procol Harum. Examples of songs with no chorus include "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin, "The Sound of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkel or "Rapture" by Blondie. 

My entry is based on the ancient Greek mythological story of Demeter and her daughter Persephone.
lyrics
Cold gray wind 
Across the sky 
Steals the earth 
Demeter cries 
Winter shivers endlessly 
Waiting for Persephone 

Mother Earth 
Grows nothing 
Daughter gone 
Til Spring 
Shrouded in a frigid veil 
Waiting for Persephone 

Mother dreams 
Grateful tears 
Melting ice 
When child appears 
Sweetly spring will bloom again 
With golden green Persephone
