Title: Thats The Way The Story Goes
Post by: Black Stratman on March 21, 2009, 07:58:32 AM: It is a great pleasure to have finished this song, it took some time but worth it in the end :) This song started with a guitar tune and really developed piece by piece as everyone involved added their part. I have added the credits in order of how each player joined the song. Thanks to everyone who took part, you all own this song.

There will also be a second (Stoman) version soon which Steffen is mixing, he's just waiting on some more guitar from me.

That's The Way The Story Goes

(V1)
From a journey in real-time
With no reason or rhyme
A protagonist on a stage
A role I don't wanna play

(V2)
Midnight chance encounter
Blue Iguana bar
Early morning shadows
I became love's faded star

(Chorus)
That's the way my story goes
Life's a metaphor
I'm looking for the next open door
That's the way my story goes
Life's a metaphor
Seems like the end
But I'm ready for more

(V3)
I travel inside my head
Remember words unsaid
A smokescreen without a fan
On a trip through no man's land

(V4)
A lifetime of chance encounters
A story going nowhere
A shifty-eyed writer
Writing scripts from my chair

(Chorus)
That's the way my story goes
Life's a metaphor
I'm still lookin' to run through an open door
That's the way the story goes
My life's a metaphor
Seems like the end
But I'm ready for more

- Solo -

(Chorus)
That's the way my story goes
Life's a metaphor
I'm still lookin' to run through an open door
That's the way my story goes
Life's a metaphor
Seems like the end
But I'm ready for more

(Bridge)
I've set the stage
For a new beginning
I've crossed the turning point

My life's on the mend
And my stories never end

(Outro)
That's the way my story goes
Life's a metaphor
I'm always ready for more

Post by: r4m on August 29, 2010, 07:20:51 PM: Nice one folks! Everything sounds great! Me too likey the guitars!! Nice tones! >:D
Prolly not fair to others, but I have a tendancy to comment more on guitars!! >:D
Title: Re: Thats The Way The Story Goes
Post by: Casia - lyricist on August 30, 2010, 03:59:32 PM: Thanks Bobby, I like blue :).

Thanks Mr. Mom and r4m for commenting so many months after we've finished this song. And I'll forgive you r4m for commenting on the guitars, and they are great, I tend to pay attention to the words when I listen to songs ;D. And it annoys me to no end when I can't understand what a singer is singing LOL!
