For these posts today, I am going to be getting into one of the aspects of Draftboard, and I am going to post a portion of lyrics from one of my written songs, called "Shadow Strangers." For future blog posts in Draftboard, the outline will go something like this =):
"Pavement is solid, but hope is deep,
Dreams are realities, when you sleep,
This world is large enough for you, and me,
When we're shadow strangers, in a world that's free,"
People helping out each other |
This song, "Shadow Strangers" is mostly about helping out one another, and being there for each other. One day, my father and I were driving home from Brooklyn, and we saw a car, dismantled. There was a car accident, and the woman behind the steering wheel was in shock. She couldn't say a word, nor could she move. My dad and I went to help her, by trying to give her warmth and remove he numbness and fear that she was feeling at the time. Before time was speeding up, paramedics came, thanked us for our help in the effort, and took care of the rest of the situation.
This is how I got inspiration for writing "Shadow Strangers." Helping out a fellow person, be it a friend, a family member, or even a complete stranger.
"Pavement is solid, but hope is deep,"
-This means that you can't deny the feeling of stepping on solid ground. You feel it. When you fall and hit the floor, it may hurt you. You may feel pain. But having hope is just as strong as feeling pain.
"Dreams are realities, when you sleep,"
-This means that when you're dreaming, or even in shock, everything still seems so real to you, even if you may not notice it in the moment, or real time.
"This world is large enough for you, and me,
When we're shadow strangers, in a world that's free,"
-This means that we all want to fix our situations and sometimes block others' situations out. However, at the end of the day, we're all people, we're all human, and it's nice to hear good stories of people helping each other once in a while, rather than all of the sad news we hear.
I hope you enjoy the mini voice recording of "Shadow Strangers!" Please provide any feedback or comments! It would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, and till next post, peace out to all my drafters!
Sincerely,
Julian.
