Here is a song I have been messing with for quite some time. It's about constantly fighting for the important things in life, and never taking them for granted during the short time we are given. It has got a couple of attempts at a few firsts for me, like alternating rhyming lines, two time signatures, and an attempt at some more powerful vocals on the chorus, and even some heavy drums too 😀 It's a very odd song...

THE NORTHERN STAR

VERSE 1

the  hour glass is broken

and time falls to the floor

too many words unspoken

while I'm trapped behind closed doors

no the sand won't pull back

it covers all I've forsaken

maybe it's the effort I lack 

or the wrong road I've taken

CHORUS

so throw away the maps and keys to where we are

pack our bags boys and catch the Northern...the Northern Star.

VERSE 2

our new town shall be unknown

and our street without a name

pure seeds will be sown

for our love to remain

I wanna make it up to you

for the time lost between

the most beautiful two

boys I have ever seen

CHORUS

so throw away the maps and keys to where we are

pack our bags boys and catch the Northern...the Northern Star.

Thanks a bunch! Not exactly the most accessible song I've ever written, so thanks for listening.
