hey guys! I think I posted a little of this before but, finally, I've finished this song. if you're wondering about the title, I'm in a university which is in the town Lampeter, and it's tiny and in the middle of nowhere, and everyones quite down and fucked up and lethargic, and jokingly, the general careless approach the locals and students seem to have is referred to as "lampathy" as in Lampeter Apathy. this song is about how much I fuckin' hate uni so it seemed appropriate. Anyway, this is by no means brilliant, I'm just chuffed I finished a song, it's been like... months... and thats really weird for me. please tell me what you think, I'll be recording it soon and if anyone wants to hear it I'll let them know.

LAMPATHY

Verse 1

Feels like I've been drinkin' for days,
theres nothing but spelling mistakes littering my facebook page,
I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to say
to all of these strangers who are crowding my personal space.

Theres these freaks who won't leave me alone,
it seems to retain your sanity here you've gotta stay stoned,
so it's no surprise that I feel so alone.
Deep down inside I am screaming "I WANNA GO HOME!"

Chorus

Home, it's where the fucking heart is,
and this place ain't got none at all.
But if I'd known, it wouldn't make a difference.
This is the path I'm meant to roam.
so for now, I'm stuck..., stuck in this hell hole.

Verse 2

I'm sick of the symphony of sex,
students are amateur porn stars without a gag reflex
Seems they ain't learned to bite their lip yet,
Screaming orgasms don't tend to lend themselves to essay prep

repeat chorus

Middle 8

Tired of the noises and all of the stress,
I'm tired of the apathy and disinterest
tired of every pretentious genius.
I'm tired of the lethargic lectures,
the smell of weed and the thick air pressure
all in all I'm just fucking sick to death!

Repeat chorus

End.

that is awesome love verse 2 =D

i sense some anger here kay.
haha i like it though. it kinda annoys me when songs use all these metahpors and stuff, yours gets straight to the point it seems

If I do that metaphorical crap in a song, it tends to be one massive metaphor, not lots of small ones, so usually nah, I go straight to the point...

and yes, angry is I. this ones quite personal as you know Tyler haha. thanks you two

i love the second verse so good and very clever

Hey thanks it's one of my faves... I love writing things that make the listener kind of uncomfortable yet amused...

wow. nice. i laughed too.

i like it a lot. funny stuff. and clever.

^ thanks. it's going on the album... when the records done and I put it up here for ya'll, I'm going to put a thread in here with all the lyrics... so people have the opportunity to judge me mercilessly! mwhahah

Hahah perhaps I will do the same when my record is out.

haha im in wales on holiday. Went round Lampeter today lol. It dont look too bad.

but didn't it look small? the smallness means the students are bored, so they just do drugs and have sex and annoy the hell out of me haha

haha yer i guess so...but you have such lovely butchers outside your uni :P dont all the cool kids just hang there haha?

It is a nice butchers, but no, it's not really a hang out spot haha

When's your album gonna be done?

When's your album gonna be done?

Honestly, that's all up in the air now. I got so ill and had so much other shit going on the albums been postponed by loads. I don't want to rush it, see...

so I'm either going to put it off for a few months and do it more gradually if me and my house mates get our house. but if not, then I might try to squeeze it in before I go back to uni.

You have a really good taste in lyrics, have you ever considered of doing a collab with the people here? I think that would be cool, a 182online collab album.

^ people used to suggest/play around with that on plus44online. it never really worked. plus I'm useless at working with people haha.

Oh so your a loner when it comes to making your own music? I see and thats not a problem at all, some people feel that they can only perfect their music by themselves and i salute you.
