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...
Actually I have no news. Well, nothing much, except: I'll write this from a femal perspective. Men are much 'better' crooks than women, so it should be easier to find fitting stories or situations ;-)
Post lesenI checked my 'scrap book' today. This is what I found therein: I'll tear down your mask uncover your pretences I'll reveal your disguise* and destroy your defenses I added a second part (to what will become the chorus): I'll tear down your mask I'll thwart...

Post lesenI refered to transcendental meditation once before in "listen to the music", a text that Craig has set to music. "All by itself" refers more directly to the Mantra used in this technique, and I even use images that Maharishi Mahesh Yogi used. I have replaced...
