"Can I please have a look at the lyrics?"

My friend Steve is in a kind-of band. His friend Jeff, who also happens to my cousin's ex-boyfriend, wrote a song. He was having a hard time coming up with lyrics, so Steve asked me to write some. (He also played the song for me, and it was really pretty and mysterious.) Anywyas, this is what I came up with.

It’s All the Same to Me

Burning sand beneath my fingers,

Crashing waves upon the shore,

Memories blur the view before me.

I waste the scene and long for more.

 

Chorus

It’s all the same to me.

No beauty can I find.

It’s all the same to me.

My want has left me blind.

 

Woodland glade where sunlight lingers,

Spanning trees where falcons soar,

Shades of you are all I see.

I feel I’ve walked this path before.

 

Optional Bridge

I search although I’m sightless.

I stumble and I fall.

Nothing lights the darkness.

No one can hear my call.

 

Chorus

 

Burning sand beneath my fingers,

Spanning trees where falcons soar,

Memories blur the view before me.

I feel I’ve walked this path before.

 

Chorus

 

It’s all the same to me.
