Unit 2 – Composition

3 Ideas for Composition

  1. Original song – currently played on acoustic guitar

Guitar chords – Capo on 2, G, C, Am, Em for chorus

Lyrics:

(Chorus) 

Im in pieces and youre okay

you tear me to pieces and you walk away

burning my heart out like a cigarette 

sometimes i wish that we had never met

(Verse) 

You fucked up my mind & then you fucked up my life

you dont even remember it cause it was just another day

another game for you to play 

that you knew youd win 

and go off again with another girl

It took you all of 3 fucking hours and

you never gave a second thought about me 

i guess you werent the one to loose

all youve loved youve ever known

(Chorus)

Cause im in pieces and youre okay

You tear me to peices just to walk away

all i was asking was for you to stay for another day

(Verse)

You washed away the stains when i called it off

kept it to myself what you were capable of

maybe it was anger maybe it was fear 

that let you keep a hold of me for all those years

but i cant keep playing on your mind games

that we both know id never win

so youd leave me like you always did

and id come back crying

cause im a fucking idiot

but if i tried to leave you too

we both know what you say youll do 

(Chorus)

Cause im in pieces and youre okay

You tore me to peices and you walked away

all i was asking was for you to stay for another day

2. Original song – (Paper Towns) rock song, not completed, but have guitar chords, bass chords, structure and some lyrics

Lyrics:

(Chorus)

Tired of running round this paper town

Im not sleeping and hes not around

to fill the empty spaces

I aint seen him in ages

He wont set me free

Knows im too hung up on him to leave

(Verse)

Wasted money wasted time

Lost my heart I lost my mind

Cause we never couldve had it all

He always likes to make me choose

One of these days hes gonna have to loose

Cause i just cant give him everything

3. Logic piece – more of a chill DnB style, got some lyrics and a basic melody
