Original Music
In it's fist iteration, this will be some lyrics. Later, I plan to add recordings in the form of samples. These will link to the actual song out there on whatever streaming services I can figure out. For now, just the words.
All Lyrics are original works by Noah Privett.
Man without a Crown
The liquid night rests on the shoulders of a bum
Who wears his world around him, and carries with his thumb
a neatly wrapped red package with ribbons hanging down
But no one pays attention much to a man without a crown
The sunken city gleams where local ladies dance
to opposite sides of Rubble, leaving all to chance
But seldom with their spoken word, chase away a frown
As no one pays attention much to a man without a crown
When fast a message written in the sky for all to see
is misinterpreted as meaningless almost instantly
The noise filled wind scatters hard the echo of a sound
When no one pays attention much to a man without a crown
The loud club scene, it kills me, every time I try
to understand the movements of the mouths of the standers-by
I know they try to tell me, but I can never make it out
Why no one pays attention much to a man without a crown
I gave it up all willingly, I never turned around
to see if she was still there, I just hurried back to town
but the Devil, 'e's a tricky one, cause nothing stays profound
So I guess I'll have to live my live as a man without a crown
Lyrics by Noah J. Privett
Best Loved Lady
When nothing ever starts,
it's never ended
When nothing ever ends,
it all goes on
That's good when all you know
is all the good times,
When all you know is bad times
something's wrong
[CHORUS]
And we live, we laugh, we love, we long for reason
Reason seldom comes to those who call
I had to let my best loved lady leave me
I had to let her not be best at all
We have to keep on keeping
on the good path
Our steps have all been measured
from the start
With chains around our legs
We still have freedom
With arrows in our sides
We still have hearts
[CHORUS]
One man is not an island
or an ocean
We are waves against the shore
and we will break
We can't go back to start
at the beginning
What we learn is what
we have to take
[CHORUS]
Now some of you say I
Should have seen it coming
From my perch so high
up on the wall
But I'm not naive at times
I'm sometimes cunning
And I never bow
Before the curtain call
Ah we live, we laugh, we love, we long for reason
Reason seldom comes to those who call
I had to leave the best of life behind me
Then, I had to let it not be best at all
