Why Would I Write

  • Strawberries Dipped In Chocolate

    So, I wrote this song a couple months back, but I never got around to recording it then. Anyway, be warned: It’s probably the cheesiest song I’ve ever written, but I don’t care because I wrote it when I was in love. Haha. Get ready to cringe! Download link.

    Strawberries dipped in chocolate

    You are my sugar, sugar, rush, rush baby
    I could start each day with your sweet taste on my lips
    I don’t know if you think I’m crazy
    Not a day goes by I’m not thinking about your kiss

    And I wanted you to know – you’re all I think about
    You’re all I need, you mean everything to me
    And I just wanted to say, “I love you” everyday
    You make me smile, let me catch my breath for awhile
    So I can call you up to tell you that

    And I’m so lost in your gaze, you’re so beautiful
    You’re the brightest light, I’m a moth drawn to your eyes
    And I just wanted to say, “I love you” everyday
    You make me smile, let me catch my breath for awhile
    So I can call you up to tell you that

  • 2storeytreat #7: Waiting Is The Hardest Way To Die

    Most of you probably haven’t heard this relatively new song, some of you have, and you might be wondering what the hell I’m singing about haha. I don’t have a rough demo or recording yet, but in the meantime, here are the lyrics to the song:

    Waiting Is The Hardest Way To Die

    Seven more days ’til I find out
    What you truly want from me
    I can’t say I’m not worried
    I can’t say that I am
    But I don’t want to raise my hopes up
    ‘cos every single moment spent with you
    Taught me a little more about myself

    It’s not the answer I can’t take
    It’s the waiting that’s the nightmare
    Waiting that’s the nightmare

    Pull the trigger on your own
    Take my gun don’t let it go
    ’til you let me go
    Don’t be selfish oh no no
    Make up your mind and let me know
    Don’t leave me hanging

    We take our time, we hurry up
    We slow things down, we speed things up
    We lose our hearts, we make mistakes
    We take our time, we hurry up
    We slow things down, we speed things up
    We lose our heads, we raise the stakes

    Pacing up and down your room, wondering what you’re thinking of

    Is it me inside your head?

    Pacing up and down your room, wondering what you’re thinking of

    Do you miss me at all?

    You exist in, or you exit from
    You exist in, or you exit from my life

    Basically this song was written when I was waiting for Jasmine’s answer, a few months ago. We weren’t a couple yet, and before we got together, she asked for a week apart to think about things. I wasn’t particularly happy with that because I didn’t know what her decision would be, I got upset, started penning down words to a song and this was the result. As for the music, I’ve had the guitar parts down for a very long time, but no words to put to it. I tried singing these lyrics to it, they fit, and the rest is history.
