You're young, you're making your way,
You plunge into the void,
And though adulthood is here to stay,
Of common sense you're utterly devoid;
You never mind, you
Enjoy the good times
Of carefree living and love all around
Hey, hey, you hum your own tune,
And life is pretty good, and you don't give a damn,
But you need a firework to
Get off the ground

Say the family, what
Can you be thinking?
They don't seem to be
Proud of who I am;
Why should I lay it all down,
Why should I let it be?
I'm gonna turn it around,
And I'm gonna find me.

Life moves in a roundabout way;
Times when you can't see the day-
Light on the horizon, oh, you are, you are
You're so sore
From banging your head against the wall;
Oh my Lord, what have I done?
I know that I can be proud of who I am
Why should I lay it all down,
Lay it all down now?
There's no word as "can't",
But I gotta think hard.

Life takes an exemplary turn;
Hang in there, there'll come the day
When a ceremony in your honour resounds with applause,
And people are queuing to meet you at the door;
Oh, my Lord, look what I've done
I know that I can be proud of who I am
Now I lay it all down,
I lay it all down now;
I've proved what I can,
And now I lay myself down;
Now I lay it all down, lay it all down....
Na na na na na na na na.....

ariestiger ~ just what I've been trying to do for the last year. Laying it all down, especially where family are concerned. Getting people to listen.

Recently I've felt like I'm beginning again and trying to live my life for once.

Did you write this? It reads like a very cool song. I love it

Hi Sheaa!!

Yes, I did write it! It came straight from the heart...
It sounds even better with the tune attached - I wanted to give it a kind of fun, all-American feel.
Would you like to maybe get in touch? I can send you a sample CD if you like.

Sheaa, did you get my e-mail? I can send you a CD of the song, or an MP3 if you'd prefer.
You can email me at geetarwoman@yahoo.co.uk.
