Cloud Jam Live Rec

My daughter and I were watching a RoomieOfficial YouTube video about multiples songs that have the same name. One of these titles was "Hit The Lights". We decided to have a competition to see who could write the best song title "Hit The Lights" and here is mine. I'm not 100% sure what genre it is, I'm guessing Country-Pop-Rock or something like that. I've used driving as a metaphor for life.

Lyrics:

The way was winding
But now you're finding
That you're going nowhere
The lights are blinding
Constantly reminding
You've lost yourself in their glare

Don't think of stopping
You can still find your way
It's time for gear dropping
Rev up now and you may

Just hit the lights before they change
Follow your dreams, while they're still in range
Discover your way as you drive through the night
You'll only get lost if you don't hit the lights

Have to keep moving
Always you're proving
That all you left was right
The road ain't smoothing
But now you're cruising
Round obstacles of hindsight

Don't think of stopping
You can still find your way
Your engine is throbbing
Rev up now and you may

Just hit the lights before they change
Follow your dreams, while they're still in range
Discover your way as you drive through the night
You'll only get lost if you don't hit the lights


Don't think of stopping
You can still find your way
Your music is rocking
Rev up now and you may

Just hit the lights before they change
Follow your dreams, while they're still in range
Discover your way as you drive through the night
You'll only get lost if you don't hit the lights

You'll only get lost if you don't hit the lights

You're a Believer

This is a dark-wave / new-wave track inspired by Depeche Mode. The theme is being different to others, and being happy out of place.

Lyrics:

Shadowed I walk alone
My world is dark like stone
They wear colors so bright
I can't join in their light
They laugh and shine so clear
But my heart holds the fear
In their glow I'm unseen
Caught in a world between

Out of place I stand
Where dark is my land
In a world of light
I'm lost in the night

They see rainbows and sun
But for me it’s all gone
Their smiles don't touch my soul
In this dark I feel whole
In their world I’m a ghost
A shadow they have lost
No matter how they try
I’m a dark lullaby

Out of place I stand
Where dark is my land
In a world of light
I'm lost in the night

I know you think I am cold
Invisible
A phantom that you cannot hold
At home in the dark

Out of place I stand
Where dark is my land
In a world of light
I'm lost in the night

I'm lost in the night
