Wordplay

This week we worked to play with words, and this was a pretty exciting concept for me. At the time of assignment but as the week progressed I found myself somewhat uninspired, I just couldn’t find a way to make a sound that would match the theme I wanted to play with. Lyrically, however, I was able to have some fun with rhymes especially when I made myself get a little looser with them.

I had about 4 or 5 total different attempts all of which were either scrapped or ended up getting put into the finished song. I really enjoyed shouting the word “Necromancy” in the song as a four syllable single word response to the four syllable line before it “she won’t come back” that part felt pretty good to me even though Necromancy didn’t really have any rhymes in the song. My written highlight however was “Nature Breathes… You’re forced to be free” the significance I was going for was essentially a spin on “life goes on and now you’re “free”’ A lot of people in relationships that may have outlived their time tend to speak on wanting or longing for “freedom” and yet I see so many lament the loss of those very same relationships. Nature takes its course and now you are “free”. Things we must all live with.

This is definitely a set of lines I want to use in a song in the future and I hope to put them over music I’m happier with.
