Ah, it's been a while since I last wrote something. I've been listening to Mary Lambert's songs lately and it's very inspiring how she has come to terms with herself and learned to love her body and who she is as a person. I'm not sure if she's that new a musician, but I hope she goes far. The world needs more singer-songwriters like her.
Anyway, here's me trying my own hand on songwriting as well...AGAIN.
This is my outlet and sometimes instead of talking my feelings out with other people I just get random thoughts in my head (and usually, they rhyme. lol) and I feel an urgent need to put them together with the 7 guitar chords that I know.
Here goes. Posted the video which I'm sure I'll delete later on because it's just a draft vid that I did so I don't forget the melody. Hohoho.

I'm not the same person
That I was yesterday
Tomorrow I think I would say the same
Between the pages
Of my book are different cases
Of some changes that I had to brave
Always the odd one
And my timings are all awkward
So I press the reset button the next day
I try to blend in
But my body just wont fit
Inside narrow doors of conventional ways
CHORUS:
Don't we usually just connect the dots?
Why do mine turn out so different from the lot?
Am I the on the wrong
Or had I been right all along?
I wipe my sweat off
And decide I'm tired of changing
To please the people who don't even care
It's not a race
Everyone at his own pace
In the end we'll all get there
And so I go
Walk along a different road
It's the only way that I could ever know
What lies ahead
What's beyond my clouded head
And if it's worth getting out of bed
Don't we usually just connect the dots?
Why do mine turn out so different from the lot?
Am I on the wrong
Or had I been right all along?
I drink my coffee
As it gets dark
I sing my heart out
As I drive my car
Dance just about everywhere
I'm weird and I'm aware
