Tawtami:It's ok with me if you join, but you'll have to ask Allmike, he's our manager. :D I think he'll probably let you.

Here's what we've got so far:

Standin' here
Side by side
No one said it's an easy ride
Don't worry, cos I've got your back
Standin' tall
We're still free
Together we'll fight for the dream
One for all
and All for one
And all thats in between
Remember the old days
Shootin the breeze
Not carin' bout right or wrong
Seemed like everything
Was ours for the taking
Guess I should have known all along
This couldn't last forever

Prechorus:

Back then it seemed we were always winning
But now our teams been torn apart
I wish we could go back to the beginning
Can't you take us back to the start?

Chorus:
I swear, as I stand here
I'd Do Anything For You
Cos I know that you'd do the same for me
We can live and die together
But our fight will last forever
If you'll let me
I'll stand with you till the end
Because I call you friend

They say they honor loyalty
It don't look that way to me
But I'm not giving in
I won't let go of what I believe
For all the **** that we been through
I never let 'em change my mind
I'll always be here for you
We'll come through this side by side
I'll Do Anything For You
I remember when you said that to me
The worst day of my life
The day we parted, I lost a part of me

Prechorus:

Back then it seemed we were always winning
But now our teams been torn apart
I wish we could go back to the beginning
Can't you take us back to the start?

Chorus:
I swear, as I stand here
I'd Do Anything For You
Cos I know that you'd do the same for me
We can live and die together
But our fight will last forever
If you'll let me
I'll stand with you till the end
Because I call you friend

I know we're seperated
By time and space, laws and rules
But I swear I'll fight
I'll stand by you
I'd do anything for you
Anything at all
And that's the truth

Great job! Walrus, you are one of the best songwriters I've ever seen! Lets keep this song going!

Got another little bit. I think we'll want it to go after the "I know we're seperated" part. After the "I know" part there'll be a solo, then this, and then maybe an extended chorus.

Its all I can do
I gotta stand by you

Cause when you're loyal to someone...

You can't help it

I imagine those last two lines being spoken, then launching into the chorus. What'dya think? Any good?

Adrian 06-30-2003 04:18 AM

Ok. Since no one voiced any objections (or even opinions) to that last bit I wrote in, here is "I'll Do Anything For You". Its a song about standing by a friend when its the hard, and even sometimes, wrong, thing to do. Please post comments, corrections, etc.

Big thanks to The Walrus and Allmike. You guys are great!

Walrus:What do you want to do next? A ballad? The next chapter in the Dry County saga? Personally, I'd like to finish that "Win Or Lose" song I prototyped about 2 pages ago. You interested?

Adrian

tawtami 06-30-2003 02:32 PM

Hey allmike.
okay, you can see some of my stuff BUT if you wanna listen, i warn you that the song i have on this pc on mp3 is one of the least rock things ive written... but people still seem to like it.... havent got other stuff recorded yet... other alternative is to rip some of the covers we've done in my old band off VHS if my mate can show me how....

i have the song on mp3 as does AnnU now (:D)
ill post the lyrics up now and if you want it can send over yahoo or IRC
already posted it in the music forum.... but hey... and anyone else who wants it and will let me know their thoughts is welcome.

Exposed, feels so bare
nothing to protect me
just the clothes i wear
Exposed, there for all to see
im losing my control
i can't keep this hold -

i need the shelter to hide the pain
from myself
all the shame all the fear
i need your cover, i need you near

exposed, spewed out on the floor
for everyone to gaze at
for all to behold
Exposed, nothing left to give
now i feel so empty
dont know if i can live -

i need the shelter to hide the pain from myself
all the shame, all the fear
i need your cover i need you near

im not talking i can barely breathe,
what if someone says what they have seen?

Exposed, now i feel so alone
cringing curled in a corner
it feels so cold
Exposed, I turn my face to the shadows
your looks are like poisoned arrows
that pierce my soul

im not talking i can barely breathe,
what if someone says what they have seen?

my greeting-card smile cannot save me now
ive got to get away from here somehow...

Exposed, feel so bare
nothing to protect me
just the clothes i wear
Exposed, nothing left to give
now i feel so empty
dont know how i can live

exposed.

Hi:
Cool! You play a lot of instruments! I vote to let you in. You've already proven you've got writing talent. :wink: By the way, I've never heard of a musical instrument called a glock. Isn't that a type of gun? :shock:

Adrian is right, u got loads of talent. We can use flute in some of the songs, it will give something different to music.
You can join out team of Adrian and Walrus to write some good music. :P
