I like fall break.

I got an idea for a song while drying my hair. So I ran to the computer (hair still damp) and started typing. Then the ideas just keep coming and coming, and before I knew it, I had these lyrics on my screen. Lots of pent up creative energy has to come out sometime, I guess. I've been so busy with school and whatnot that I haven't done anything like this in a while. Felt great. :) Here are the lyrics:



You cut my hair in the foreboding pre-dawn
And in the dimness, I looked at the ground
The snip and slice of scissors laced my neck
Thought to myself, “I’ll have to wear scarves now”

You shaped my soul in the feathery white trees
And my lungs were altered in alien ways
You sank in freezing water, and took me with you
Now this heaving cold won’t go away
It’s too early to be up this late
And I can’t, no I can’t swallow
Cough and wheeze my heart out
I cough and wheeze my heart out
I’ve got this sickness 
That I can’t sleep through
You bumped the snow in the bright white midnight
And came knocking at my door too late
Tried the knob, but it had frozen over
It said... “Too early to be up this late."


The sun’s too bright

For my indoor eyes
And the snow’s so bright, it could melt
Yeah, the moon’s so bright
In my pale blue eyes
Yeah, the snow’s so bright
Don’t fall in!
Cause you’ll put angels on the ground


It’s too early to be up this late
And I can’t, no I can’t swallow
Cough and wheeze my heart out
I cough and wheeze my heart out
I’ve got this sickness 
That I can’t sleep through
