Some New Words

Been participating in a songwriting club this summer, and as I go different places in my daily life, I feel more observant b/c I am always looking for things that might inspire lyrics etc. It doesn’t take much… which is a good thing, cuz I don’t really do much! Last week I was at a coffee shop with my kid and saw a couple of tiny metal wings on a table. It was weird. I think they may have been part of an earring. Or a necklace? Or a dead metal, tiny bird. But, how would that even work? Where was the rest of it? Is a metal bird body worth more than the wings and so some dead metal bird poacher just left the wings? Anyway….

She don’t get high like she used to
She don’t get high much at all
Gettin’ tired of makin nothin’ out of something
She’s falling, let it be nothing

Getting closer, to the breakdown
Just stay close
To the ground
Silver, lonely wings on the counter top
Who leaves earrings at the coffee shop?

Anyway, we will see if that turns into something.

Cheers.
