I describe my ongoing lyrics writing projects. Where I get my ideas, how I match my words with other people's music, which little helpers I use...
I changed the line "come rain and bad weather" to "come hell or bad weather" so it's closer to "come hell or high water".
Then I wrote two verses:
it's so hard to keep up the pretence
that everything is fine
for weeks on end I've left home for work
at my usual time
'though I was laid off like other men
no chance of a new job
plenty of spare time, yet without pay
is all that I have got
... and
it's so hard to keep up the pretence
that everything is fine
I discovered that you had a fling
with a friend of mine
I was just having my breaktime snack
sitting on a wall
when, arm in arm, I saw you come out
of the shopping mall
***
I think I'll leave it at that, as for the verses. I'll have to think of a bridge that adds some postive aspect or outlook like "let us try to revive the love we once had" or so.
