1)
Trying to outrace the raging stormclouds
Where are you running to now?
Where is it you think you can hide?
How do you hide from what's in your mind?

Running, running, looking for some escape
When they all lead back to the same place


2)
Is there a storm outside?
I don't know


3)
Come and join me on the weekend


4)
And when you come knocking on my door
Wanting something more
I'll turn you away


5)
What is it about such questions?
Why do you catch my eye like you do?


6)
The only time she smiled at me was through a camera lens


7)
And then I was scarred
You lifted me up to the sky
Perhaps this ought to go in my scraps since it's not anything complete, but here it is anyway.

Apart from writing sentences and story ideas which pop into my head down in my phone, from time to time I'll get pieces of made up music in there too. So I end up writing those down, trying to guess which musical notes they have. They usually look something like this: "C-C-C-D C- G... F-E", etc.

Technically I have about 35 or so snippets of music written down, but not many of them actually have lyrics along with them. So here's just a small selection of lyrics. What's strange, and a little frustrating, is when I have my own song stuck in my head - I can imagine it as a complete-sounding song but for the moment I only have the main part written down.

1) is the most memorable and the first such 'song' I came up with. It just hit me while I was in a taxi going home one night, and it was raining so heavily that even the windshield wipers on the fastest setting weren't enough and I pretty much couldn't see anything out the window. I love the rain, but that was a bit scary :p
3) had music but I forgot it pretty quiickly, I was busy at the time.
4) 5) and 6) actually don't have music to go with them :p They might just end up as some bit of writing

7) hit me last night when I couldn't get to sleep and all I could hear was a lone mosquito farting about the room
