about
January 1st I decided to start the year off right and challenge myself to record, produce, and release an album in a month. By myself. I've never really recorded much more then a demo by myself, but I like a challenge so I figured "What the hell, why not. If it sucks I'll give it away for free" Here is the first little peek (and one of two new songs) of what I'm doing.
lyrics
They say love conquers all
well I don't want to be conquered anymore
I'm dropping out of the war
my white flag flying
all those years I believed
that being wanted by somebody
would finally make me feel worthy
but I have always been just as I am
I don't, need diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free
from you
All those books that I read
and hoped they'd fix some mortal flaw
that made me so un-loveable
to all the boys since highschool
all the times that I tried to fit myself into a mold
thinking it made me beautiful
but I have always been just as I am
I don't need diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free
from you
For better or worse
in sickness and health
in poverty or wealth
I can only be myself
so take me as I am
or never come again
never come round here again
I don't need your diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine
the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free
I don't need diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free from you.
well I don't want to be conquered anymore
I'm dropping out of the war
my white flag flying
all those years I believed
that being wanted by somebody
would finally make me feel worthy
but I have always been just as I am
I don't, need diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free
from you
All those books that I read
and hoped they'd fix some mortal flaw
that made me so un-loveable
to all the boys since highschool
all the times that I tried to fit myself into a mold
thinking it made me beautiful
but I have always been just as I am
I don't need diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free
from you
For better or worse
in sickness and health
in poverty or wealth
I can only be myself
so take me as I am
or never come again
never come round here again
I don't need your diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine
the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free
I don't need diamonds to sparkle
they can't outshine the stars in my eyes
and all the red roses in the world
wouldn't be as sweet as being free from you.
