If You Only Knew



    If you only knew..... well there's not much to say. I'm an identical twin. I love music and I watch anime. I mean this is a hard topic for me. I'm just a boring guy and there's not much going on behind the scenes. But I guess I'll dive right in and give it a shot. I guess all talk about how  I want to be a lyrics writer.

I love music. I listen to all different genres and types of music. I go from Christian rock to country to 90's pop. But I listen to more alternative rock and metal than anything else. This does not mean scream-O because even I have trouble listening to that. I mean Bands like Three Days Grace, Linkin Park, Breaking Benjamin, Yellowcard, etc. Because I listen to theses bands so much I want to write songs similar to theirs. But, I don't know how to play any instruments and I can't really read music. This makes writing music with notes and everything impossible. So instead I just come up with lyrics and sing them how ever I think they sound best. I normally get the lyrics just my singing when I'm bored and coming up with them as I go. I don't have a song that's finished but I've started a few, three to be exact. One's called Shot In The Dark. As of now, it's the one I want to finish the most.  The other two are, Lighter and Middle of the Sea. Shot In The Dark is about how I took a chance asking a girl out. Middle of The Sea is a song about rejection and Lighter is a song about finding someone that brightens your world no matter what. I'm not sure what the music to them would be and I constantly change how I sing them. I would also like to perform theses songs some day. I don't have enough songs thought up to even begin coming up with an album name or band name, though I would probably name the band Hollow Dreams. This is just something I work on from time to time and not something I openly pursue. It's nothing more than a hobby and a fantasy. I know it's not realistic and that's why I don't tell people about it; that and the fact that if I tell people they want to see the lyrics but they're not finished so I won't show them to anyone. I'm always looking for new material so comment your favorite bands and songs. Thanks for reading and I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this post.

  1. You have a lot of really good dreams and aspirations here. I think you're the type of person who won't quit until you get the job done. Good luck, I'm sure you'll go far no matter what you choose.

  2. That sounds awesome! I am 100% behind that! I understand not showing anyone until they're done but once you're finished and comfortable with them I hope you'll share!
