So I've been steady working on trying to get my thoughts in an organized state so I can write music for my album. I began talking to a graphic design friend of mine and she showed me a recent work she did involving a dark room with dead flowers and a wedding veil on the floor. The only light was from a broken window and the window was crowded with arms trying to grasp the flowers and veil.
This got me to thinking about marriage and how it's been downplayed and ruined. Seems that now days, it's become nothing but a tool that people use to get what they want. Or to cover something up. So I began writing and out came the song L Is For Love. I'm pretty sure once I get it fine tuned, I'll end up putting it on the album. Until then, though, here's the words: L Is For Love Looking in through a window Broken glass stained with blood A disease so common It leaves an ocean of tears The circle is meaningless As she says yes The lie is arbitrary but They're all none the wiser Just because the truth Can't be seen Doesn't mean it won't exist Disgustingly self abusive The days cut right through her The wedding's a facade For her family Everything is perfect Praying nobody finds that The dress is a lie The lie is arbitrary but They're all none the wiser Just because the truth Can't be seen Doesn't mean it won't exist The kiss may look genuine It's nothing but acting She knows Her parents will be happy With the offspring she produced They'll never know the truth The lie is arbitrary but They're all none the wiser Just because the truth Can't be seen Doesn't mean it won't exist

Yeah. I thoroughly enjoyed writing this piece. I'm working on the instrumentals now and it's coming along decent.
Oddly enough, I had the idea to have like a falsetto vocal track underneath the chorus singing "L Is For Love". Haha

Yeaaaah. There's really no reason to get on here and be a dick for the sake of being a dick.
