No lyrics to offer, but if peeps are happy to send me quality lyrics (none of this auto generated crap) I would be happy to put music and melody to them.

This thread is way too long to try and read all the lyrics, and keep jumping bakc and forth between posts.

Please PM me if you are interested and we can work out collab arrangements there.

Cheers

EDIT: btw one observation is that most of the lyrics presented are too long and wordy...so a collab may mean my editing/re-arranging/substituting lyrics....so if you are comfortable with that, proceed :)

--Without A Trace--

I crossed the freeway once riding on my trike,
with you crying out from behind me.

It's hard for me
to go back down that street
where the smile first left your face
without a trace.

It's getting harder for me to remember,
that you were born on the 24th of December.

From here I can almost see your face.
You disappeared like an unsolved case,
without a trace.

My high school hero died at the football game,
struck by reality like lightning.

But he woke with a splash
of water on his face,
like he fell out of outer space
without a trace.

Agree that some of the lyrics are too long. You can get by with 60 words with some repetition. Even Bob Dylan wrote some short lyrics. Knocking on Heaven's Door is a classic with only 51 words if you remove the repetitions.

I had fruit flies bothering me because of fruit and wine in my room, so I wrote the following. Might be for a kids movie or something:

Listen up insects. I know you like our lights. I know you like our wine. And though you think we’re awesome, we’re not always divine. You see, we tend to get angry, when you bother us. You don’t want to be squished. You don’t want to die. So don’t push your luck now. Get out and give nature a try.

Listen up humans. We know you like our nights. We know you like our fruit. And though you think we’re annoying, we’re also sometimes cute. You see, we tend to get obsessed, when you attract us. You don’t want any hassles. You don’t want to cry. So go push your luck now. Get out and give nature a try.

you sent me a letter
the old-fashioned way
I'm saving your letter
for a far distant day

but I cried into the night
just to hear what you might say
and I screamed into our blankets
but the night has no words

I opened your letter
it's all blurred to me
it doesn't mean anything
I guess we are free

but I cried into the night
just to feel you home again
and I screamed into the wilderness
to find my lost friend

but the night has no words

I'm bored. Does anybody have lyrics they want put to music? This thread is 4 years old at last posting so I don't know if all the stuff before this post is still relevant.

It's a non-linear summer
Rain falls upwards to the sky
Tears race to climb your cheeks into your bloodshot eyes

It's a non-linear summer
Where it's June after July
Or was it June after Julie? I forgot to memorise

There's something on the tip of my tongue
Something about time machines
How we destroyed all the time machines
Before we built any time machines

We have to kill the baby
who'll grow into the man
who'll come up with the plan to...
kill the baby
who'll grow into the man
who'll come up with the plan to...
kill the baby
who'll grow into the man
who'll come up with the plan to...
kill the baby
who'll grow into the man
who'll come up with the plan to...

Are you safe?

Ok. The challenge is, do it in that music I listen to you call ‘synth demo music’, maybe one of the faster based song styles.
Song 1: Harry The Bird.

Once there was a really wacky bird.
He is very good with words.
He jumped on the ceiling and walls.
He would never ever fall.

He was named Harry.
But he didn’t dress like a fairy.
He was really weird.
The robots need beards.

Chorus
Harry the bird,
Harry the bird,
Harry the bird,
Harry the bird!

There was a goose.
Her name was Aroos.
Harry really liked her,
So they got married.

Repeat chorus

Bridge:
Harry the bird was adventuring with Aroos,
They danced together like an epileptic goose,
They went on adventures dear and true,
Now it sounds like Agadoo...

Instrumental break (like those ‘synth demo songs’ as you call them have).

Repeat chorus 2 or 3 times,

That’s it!

———————————————————————————

Or if you want something much more sensible, in the same style, do these lyrics.

Song 2: The Olden Days

I don’t wanna do no Macarena
I don’t wanna do no Gangnam Style
I just want to listen to the radio
And listen to the old day’s style

I just want to remember the old days,
I want to bring back some good memories,
I want to remember the sweet old times,
We went to the ocean and felt the breeze

Chorus
I can remember the olden days,
Back when we listened to old John and Paul,
I can remember the olden days,
When we would never fall.

I don’t want to do the Electric Slide,
I don’t want to do the Agadoo,
I don’t want to remember the bad wedding parties,
Where we used to see the dancing Pooh.

Instrumental break (maybe sax or some Asian folk instrument).

Repeat chorus 2 or 3 times

———————————————————
Bonus points if you can do both!
First in a fast style like this
https://youtu.be/5yICmCpcESA
Second do in a more medium tempo style like this
https://youtu.be/d1eQiTE4FJo

If you don’t want to do those genres.
Do the first in a polka or calypso style.
Second in a rock and roll style.
Many paid and free VSTs as well as Kontakt libraries. As well as HW synths/drum machine and acoustic instruments.

Pm me if you want to add Melody to a lyric and you know who can sing it; by myself I can record a piano vst.
Romantic dreaming a bit dramatic melodies are my standard.
Better than this only the silence. Better than the silence only John.
