Heey!
Twee jaar geleden ben ik begonnen met eigen teksten schrijven, en het leek me leuk om deze te delen. Ik heb meestal meerdere versies van elk nummer: akoestisch (zang, gitaar en/of piano) en gewoon met volledige band (zang, gitaar (elektrisch of akoestisch), bas, drums, en keyboard (piano/synths/strings) of tweede gitaar). Zelf speel ik nu 3 jaar gitaar en 2,5 jaar piano. Het merendeel heb ik mijzelf aangeleerd.
Mijn ervaring is, met name bij het schrijven van songteksten, dat je ze eigenlijk altijd tegelijkertijd met de muziek moet schrijven, omdat het anders vaak net niet helemaal lekker loopt. Ik zal binnenkort eens een filmpje hier neerzetten, maar hier eerst een recente tekst van mij.
"Silently you're sitting there
People talking everywhere
You seem so lost I don't know why
But girl, isn't it time to shine
I'll take care of you all the way
Whipe your tears away and say
What bothers you, you can tell it me
Just close your eyes and see
So many questions that we ask
So less answers that we'll get fast
Is it right or is it wrong
Secretly I sing this song
So many things I'd like to know
So less reasons for me to go
Should I try or leave it behind
No answer that I'll find
Cause you are still on my mind
Oh you're still on my mind
There's something struggling inside you
I can see it in all you do
You said that you're doing just fine
But girl, didn't you change your line
I'll take care of you all the way
Whipe your tears away and say
What bothers you, you can tell it me
Just close your eyes and see
So many questions that we ask
So less answers that we'll get fast
Is it right or is it wrong
Secretly I sing this song
So many things I'd like to know
So less reasons for me to go
Should I try or leave it behind
No answer that I'll find
Cause you are still on my mind
Heads up, go straight
Believe, don't wait
Don't live your
life from day to day
Just walk, away
No trouble, awaits
And follow the
Path and have my faith
(instrumental)
So many questions that we ask
So less answers that we'll get fast
Is it right or is it wrong
Secretly I sing this song
So many things I'd like to know
So less reasons for me to go
Should I try or leave it behind
No answer that I'll find
Cause you are still on my mind
Oh you're still on my mind"
