I see three verses and a chorus so a complete song. Does anybody see anything else? :lol:

Feel free to tell me what you think of me,
Don't hold back, I can take it.
My mind is not what it used to be,
Even so I'm still gonna make it.

I don't want to fake it,
So give me some credit.
These shoes weren't meant for me

I have opened my eyes
I am seeing things clearer now
Yesterday is but a memory
I know it will fade somehow

Just give me some truth
I can't bare this disguise
Time makes the pain grow
in the emptiness of my eyes

I want to go where sun never fades
Run from this cold quiet place
Float in the abyss and enter the gates
Of a distant timeless space

(I'm sorry, I've got carried away so i had to write a complete verse)

i started trying to put music to this song that has turned out better than expected.......
i had a nice piano piece for it....but it sounded familiar......it ended up being the exact chords for The Final Cut....spooky....i honestly had never played the Final Cut on my keyboard before.......
anyway, there is still a bit of the song to go....so keep up the good work...it really has worked out wonderfully....
and remember after this...we have part 2 and part 3 to do :lol: :lol: :lol:

ok.....started another nice piece of music to try and go with the lyrics.....
this time it sounded like Roger Waters 'Amused to Death'

ah well at least i am on the right tracks

'Doctor Doctor....what is wrong with me'
'feel free....to tell me what you think of me'

I say we send it off to another site claiming it MIGHT be new Roger Waters lyrics and let the site analyse them and see how good they claim they are.

As long as we say might, why for all we know any one of us could be roger waters :shock:

I am Syd Barrett and I'm back. So Rick, what songs are we working on now so I can lay down some guitar tracks? :lol:
