If you like ska and Victorian literature, this might be the only song to combine both of your passions.

A Picture Of Dorian Mode

Collected Nonsense

Fish Bang Live

I wrote a song about my relationship with my extended family
Lyrics:
Verse
Everybody has forgotten 
And people moved on 
But I’m stuck in the same place I can’t go on
Do they even remember? 
Do they even care? 

Chorus 
Our Family tree
Don’t mean much to me 
When daggers are behind smiles 
Our family tree
Who am I supposed to be 
I wish you could all just see

Verse 
Do they ever wonder?
Do they ever regret?
Do they ever think of you and where you might be now 
Do you even remember her name?

Chorus

Family Tree Demo

A song about discovering that I am demisexual and on the asexual spectrum! 

In the Middle

Verse 1

I want you to understand me 
Even though I don’t understand myself 

I want you to love me 
Even though I don’t love myself G

Pre chorus 
Everyone craves that human connection
Everyone craves that human touch

Chorus 
All my life 
I felt broken and torn 
All my life 
I was never in control 
Lust at first sight 
Lost in the night 
I guess I lye somewhere
In the middle 
In the middle

Verse 2

I want to understand me 
Even though the world tells me I’m broken 

I want to love me 
While lust and desire is a lost emotion

Pre-chorus 

Chorus

Bridge: 

You know I really need to know your soul first 
Watch that love as it grows 
Then we can loose control 

Chorus

The Middle Demo

Under The Waves

Mountain Top

I had fun with this one. Lots of guitar layers all played haphazardly, but I like how it turned out. I decided to use a song I had perviously written for r/songaweek called edge 2 as an outro, you can check out the full song here. It was one of the first songs I made for this sub.

Lyrics:
I bury the truth 
Somewhere deep in my bones
Die with the lies
Up in my skull
It’s a habit, It’s so tragic
The things that I say are elastic

From the mountain top I see
My life more clearly
Unfolding piece by piece
Connected by broken seams

I’m trying to see beyond the trees
The afterlife is hard to reach
In this traffic, can’t get past it
The way that our souls are elastic

From the mountain top I sing 
A song thats meant for me 
As my life is crumbling 
I bless the broken seams 
God bless the broken seams

Edge 2 edge 2 edge 2 edge

broken seams (r/songaweek)

Reddit song a week challenge week 4 2024 - theme: apologies and Adrienne Lenker School of Song Homework 3- themes: drones and alt tunings- DADF#AD

V1
The world is your oyster 
slimy grey and rubbery
You’re not quite sure
Where your arms or legs or heart goes

V2
You study hollywood movies
To learn to be human
You have so much love to give
You don’t know where to put it

Chorus
Sorry you’re not sorry
You’re trying your very best to say
Sorry you’re not sorry
You’re not sure where this all is going

V3
You go to dress up parties
As a boring person
Maybe not this time
You didn’t get invited

Sorry
