So, a structure has been born, chords and melody. Now, only words are missing.
But then of course, this is the toughest part. I think my core issue here is that I have this tendency to but myself out of emotion. Putting distance between myself and the words I'm singing - and what does that do? Well, the feeling goes missing. And what are we trying to put out there? Well, a feeling.
If I don't believe what I'm telling, you can see the same in plays and in sales, then the song will fall flat.
New theory. I think I have to put myself in someone elses shoes. And really go there, to the thoughts none of us like to dwell in. You know, the thoughts that come out at night anyhow.
In "piece by piece", they talk about how a song holds more than one story. Always more than one story. I often change perspectives in songs - maybe I have to go deeper in one story, get really dirty in the reality I'd like to ignore.
The feeling of pain is the same, and even though every story is different from the other the themes and the hurt is universal. I think I really have start hurting, we all have those memories don’t we?
This all might sound abstract; I hope you get it when the song is posted.
Love to all of you
