This song is not in a battle


This started out as one of those meaningless post-punk songs , you know , the emo kind . But I really liked what I was doing and went ahead . The lyrics really make sense to me , I don't know if they would to you too though . This was one of the first songs I ever recorded , and if it sounds too simple and stupid for you, I beg forgiveness .  It's meant to be like that .

Thanks for listening by the way.


Lyrics:

I think you should be afraid your guts are almost falling out
evil monkeys rise and fall but empires stay beautiful

Why should I be like everybody else?
Why should they lead but I bleed like hell?

She's so beautiful I could almost rip her eyes out
and see
and see
for the first time in my life

And everyone knows you're hiding
you're hiding in the dark
And everyone knows you're crying
but you won't return their calls
Mother told me to get back
I took the wrong train home

The only thing which makes sense in this world
is Chewbacca

enjoyed
Dude, i enjoyed it.  It's obviously a rough cut and what not, but i could see a more produced version being quite impressive.  PS it's always good when songs come out how they were meant to be, huh?

mm , something seems wrong.
This sounds ok , at best . I guess you could have done a lot more . Like improving the vocals , for instance  .  Don't take it too harshly , but at best this sounds like a very amateur Weezer demo .

You can do a lot better .

you reviewed your own song? wtf?

i do like the distortion at the end though... but it goes on too long... you should have sent the distortion into some crazy guitar noises

Cool stuff...a shame the vocals don't share the raw energy of the guitars.

I also think this would be pretty hot with a full production sweet...

pretty good song.  sounds like you definately accomplished what you wanted, that nice simple song that just as the energy and the catchiness.  i agree that the lyrics should have the same energy as the guitar.  they kind of clash a little and is confusing.  and i guess, well, i agree with yourself? that this sounds like a weezer demo.  seems like a weezer rip off, but hey, weezer had their own thing that no one else was doin at the time, and it was simple, catchy and good.  so you accomplished that.
