Don't know why I have written this. What do you think? Is it worth recording? I need suggestions. I will surely be updating and correcting it if needed.
There There’ll be a day when I’ll go away, Like a lily at end of the day; I’ll be walking on a one way track, Don’t wait, I won’t be coming back. There were so many things to say, But sorry I couldn’t complete the play; Time has thrashed be against the shore, And to stop the clock there is no mending store. Now we’ll never see the same sunrise, And you won’t get hurt by my truths and lies; I'm sorry for the words that cut you like a knife But with me or without, I wish you a better life. There’ll be a time when you’ll find someone, I hope he will be your eternal sun; I’ll be happy for your success stories, But let me live in the lane of your memories. We’ll never see the same sunrise, And you won’t get hurt by my truths and lies; I'm sorry for the words that cut you like a knife, But with me or without, I wish you a better life. There’ll be a day when I’ll go away, Like a lily at end of the day; I’ll be walking on a one way track, Don’t wait, I won’t be coming back. THANKS FOR READING!!! |

Personally I think you're too stuck on creating rhymes, and that interferes with the actual lyrics in the song.
"There were so many things to say, But sorry I couldn’t complete the play; Time has thrashed be against the shore, And to stop the clock there is no mending store." To me this comes off as if you're forcing the rhyme, and there probably is a good idea in your head. If you can come up with a verse that simply flows better, you don't need to rhyme, because the sound is still aesthetically pleasing. I'm not saying that there should never be rhymes in a song, but the pattern can become boring and cliche. Try writing some practice songs trying to make them flow rather than simply rhyme, and come back to this one. I actually like the idea and structure of the song, but the rhyming scheme is just getting in the way of me really enjoying this. If you need any other help I'd be more than happy to offer some more advice. |

@nightrain789 Yeah! I have noticed that too. When I try to rhyme, I really skip some good stuffs. Well, Thanks for your advice. By the way am a bit confused about making the songs flow without rhyming. Can you give me some examples if you don't mind????

Well I guess I kind of confused myself with what I was saying as well, haha. It's not necessarily about writing songs with absolutely no rhymes, but you can change up the pattern with which you do it in order to keep the listener interested. For example, I wrote a song with these lyrics in it:
"It's 4am and 27 and we'll never get to bed A moment of reflection is what I get instead Standing atop a hill overlooking endlessness Flakes cloud the picture and I realize my drunkeness" But later in the song I have a part with kind of a breakdown, where any sort of rhyming scheme is completely changed up: "And I know what I need to do (need to do) To go and find someone who doesn't think like you (like you) But I'll never find them, and I'll find myself Lying on a concrete mattress Surrounded by cops and ashes Crying out for lessened brashness Just let me escape this sadness!" These lyrics won't win any awards, but I personally am happy with the way this song progresses and flows, and I know it would have been difficult for me to complete this with the original AABB rhyming scheme. Additionally, one of the reasons I started writing music again was because of a band "Bomb the Music Industry." Go check out the lyrics for "Everyone That Loves You," and listen to how he makes the lyrics work. Hopefully this should help explain my original post. |
