smoke some more, that'll help :D
I think that you are trying to write from the head, rather than the heart, WFF.
It doesn't work like that, dude - as you probably know :)
I dabble in dark poetry, because it's where my head is, but I still write from the heart.
Just start with a simple feeling, then expand upon it; for example.
"I drove my car moved along the road"
expanded
"The car kicked up trails of dusty discontent, passing trees and fields as it went, and only the clouds in the sky, bear witness to the tears that I cry."
I like your verse alot too, NWM...pain can be the greatest inspiration - bizarre :)
Res...
i used to write a bunch of crazyyy shit when i was on trippin, but dude, first just get the lyrics, then you guys can put the music around that. when you write just dont think of it as having to fit in a category. once you have the lyrics, you can work with that.
thanks ResQuote:

In the land of the gauching skiving sun
Their bodies are in the room, lad
Never an honest days work is done
They call it the Tomblands
No, they're never gonna get me no
Never gonna get me no
Never gonna get me no
Fifteen holes in the dealer's chest
Yo ho ho, he was a mini martell man
Pieces of eight in the jukebox
Didn't wanna be the one to tell you
She was only fourteen
Sussed out your dirty sordid little scene
No, never gonna get me no
Never gonna get me no
Never gonna get me no
I've been writing songs my whole life. I start with music, and let the lyrics fit the song.. just my thing. Sometimes I'll listen to something I usually don't, and try to play it, too. Like listening to some jazz/synth stuff will lead me into a whole different scale than I was thinking, you know?
