new song
folks,
got a new song. the verse/prechorus is all set (a simple tweedyesque walk down from D to G with Bm F#m G as the prechorus), but i have no idea what to do for the main chorus. oh well, it'll come.
Imaginary Eulogies
-V.1-
Driving round
Sooty snowy streets downtown
I’m thinking about going underground
And I don’t know which is worse
Panic or pleasure
The music or the measure
Of this dirty melody we just found
-V.2-
Twelve degrees
Snow in the air like buzzing bees
Sidewalk litanies of car keys
And blinkers blink red
Stoplights turn green
A passenger pondering
Imaginary eulogies
-Chorus-
Brick walls pockmarked and scarred
Just another passing of the guard
Cover half the distance in twice as far
Just another passing of the guard
-V.3-
A frozen stream
Regret in the air like geyser steam
Half pint flask of bourbon Jim Beam
And this bench is cold metal
These papers water-stained
It’s these gestures that we feign
All scored by Coltrane’s Love Supreme
-Chorus-
Brick walls pockmarked and scarred
Just another changing of the guard
Cover half the distance in twice as far
Just another changing of the guard
-Outro-
Imaginary eulogies
