Song Writing

            I think I spoke too soon when I said the songs were coming easy. I was working on a new one and it was flowing pretty good, when I got stuck. Now I’m running the risk of creating something that is contrived. There’s nothing worse than that. It’s bad for everybody, the listener, the artist, it’s just a bad scene. I’m going to let it go, not try, regroup, rather than force it. I hope it works out. I like the chord structure and the melody, but I can’t seem to fit the words in without it sounding preachy. The words are thematic. I haven’t had much luck with themes in the past. Sometimes if I don’t think about it, the words will come. But I can't pretend to not think about it, it has to be honest, sincere, there's no tricking the cosmos, not even on Halloween.
