Big, hard German boys
Bring their big, hard German noise
Breaking big, hard German toys
A flaming show of style and poise
Rammstein's very own style of joy
More soon.

Back on Track
Yes, I'm feeling the burn. Here's a silly little fan-ditty to get me started:
More soon.
More soon.

LYRICS: Angel
The band commissioning lyrics from me seem to have faded out, so I have made some changes to the lyrics I initially drafted for them and this is the result:
Battering, banging, and utterly relentless
An assault so vile that I cannot repress
All the horror and pain causing my distress
Bruising my prone and ever-so-tender flesh
There's a burning beast crouched over me
Slavering and raking me
Shaking me
But in my mind I remain strong and whole
[Inside you, in your cool and fluid heart]
In my mind I wall in my soul
[Store up hope - hold yourself apart]
Then I feel a cleansing wash of calm
[No matter what, I will always be here]
A voice of reason brings a soothing balm
[Wrap your self in me against the fear]
Angel
Feeding off my strength every eternal day
Using my soft flesh in rank, infernal ways
My only defence is to remain totally enclosed
To keep my true self safe, unexposed
There's a burning beast crouched over me
Slavering and raking me
Shaking me
But in my mind I remain strong and whole
[Inside you, in your cool and fluid heart]
In my mind I wall in my soul
[Store up hope - hold yourself apart]
Then I feel a cleansing wash of calm
[No matter what, I will always be here]
A voice of reason brings a soothing balm
[Wrap your self in me against the fear]
Angel
I find it in me, the power to survive
I can't move my tormenter or thrive
I endure unholy appetites and drives
Because I can keep myself safe inside
There's a burning beast crouched over me
Slavering and raking me
Shaking me
But in my mind I remain strong and whole
[Inside you, in your cool and fluid heart]
In my mind I wall in my soul
[Store up hope - hold yourself apart]
Then I feel a cleansing wash of calm
[No matter what, I will always be here]
A voice of reason brings a soothing balm
[Wrap your self in me against the fear]
Angel
[No matter what, I will always be here]

New Song
I'm writing a song for someone else. This is a first. I've completed the first draft today. The verses are a bit inadequate, but I'm putting most of my energy into the chorus at this stage, so I'm not too worried.
It'll be interesting to see what the band who commissioned the lyric think of Version One. Once I've established boundaries with them I'll see about publishing the lyrics here. At this point my only copy protection is a statement of copyright in the file and a copy saved to Google Docs, so I'd quite like to publish my progress on here, so there's absolutely no doubt of any rights I might hold over the piece.
This isn't a paid commission. I'm doing it as a learning experience. However, I want to ensure that any publication by them, be it recorded or written, credits me appropriately and remains intact. That's important to me. I'm planning to operate under the Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works CC licence at this point.

LYRICS: Seeking Me 1.1
I need freedom from my mind
Please come to me with relief
Come inside and bring the sky
Crawl right on in and unleash
A heart and soul gone all awry
Please come give me release
Come into me and wander through
See what it is that you can see
Come tell me what I can do
To be a little less like me
I can't see solace in this world
I look out gagged and bound
My mind's a gaol for my soul
My liberty as yet unfound
I really want you to come in
And find out my fatal flaw
Come into my mind please
And open wide all the doors
Come into me and wander through
See what it is that you can see
Come tell me what I can do
To be a little less like me
Come into me and wander through
See what it is that you can see
Come tell me what I can do
To be a little less like me
Please come into me
Please come rescue me
Please
Please

Please come into me
Please come rescue me

POEM: Olives 1.0
Surviving ravages of fire and snow
And centuries of winds that blow
Count the decades of fruit and oil
The legacy of the ancient soil
Trees that clothe the limestone face
Of this timeless and calming place
The place we come to to hear trees sing
Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring
A little trite, but true nonetheless.
