We're in the middle of writing...

... a song...
I have a goal of writing a song about the inability to actually change someone's mind.
It is a humbling thought.
I can't make anyone like our new music. Or us. I can just write it, and play it.
I can't make anyone fall in love with me. I gotta just do what I do...
I can help someone, but I can't always save them...
I now am thinking about writing from the viewpoint of a dog, watching a couple fight all day long...
The dog sees everything. He sees one person in the relationship in shambles. He sees the other trying to help. He wants to help as well... and ends up eating the girl's medication for breakfast... JUST TO FEEL WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE SOMEONE FOR A DAY!!! Yet, the dog cannot change her.
I can't believe I just posted my brainstorming in a blog. Oh well.
"I ATE YOUR MEDICATION FOR BREAKFAST"
That is the new "the price is right and I'm Bob Barker" lyric...

What would be able to replace the infamous "The Price is Right...I'm Bob Barker?"
I've actually been waiting for a long time to hear your thought process when you're song writing. It's quite interesting, and I hope that you have more blogs like this....it helps me see things from a musician's point of view...
