Readers,
Well, here is the first song on here from me. I hope you all like my style of writing, 'cause I'm not changing it. Heh.

P.S. And yes, it's about my sister moving out.

--------------------------------

"FRANTICALLY FRIVOLOUS"

Strange coincidences
Makin’ up consequences
To the game of life
And I’m asking why
Do you do this to me
Causing a big scene
Rethinking every word I’ve said
Wishing I was dead
But I meant it, every single part
It all came straight from my heart
And then you left
I’m feeling more inept
Day by day
Wishing you’d have stayed
You’re my favorite
Writing meaningless affidavits
Proving my pick
I’m losing my grip

Why’d you have to leave?
Won’t you come back to the family?
Hearing the news made me furious
But I guess you just think I’m frantically frivolous


Every time you do this
Everyone else is in materialistic bliss
You usually come back to us
But then your mouth goes bad at you cuss
At out parents, Now you’re kicked out
Permanently, and I doubt
You’ll even come back to claim what’s yours
Guess this is where those double doors
Open for you, I’ll certainly miss
My one and only best big sis

Why’d you have to leave?
Won’t you come back to the family?
Hearing the news made me furious
But I guess you just think I’m frantically frivolous


I’ll scream as loud as I want
I can’t go back to feeling jaunt
You’ve found an old yet new place
You should’ve seen the smile on your face
When you heard money was on its way
Finally you’ll have enough to remunerate
Your enormous bills and I-O-U’s
But you should save some to use
On gas to come and visit me
I know I’d do it for you, if only you’d see
How much our relationship means in my
Point of view, how I see it, through my eyes
But you’ll never come back, no matter what
Until you need more money and you have no trust
Left with anyone else, I’m here for ya
Start settin’ standards and keep ya head up
Don’t be someone you’re not
Cause you know you weren’t taught
To be that way, but hell
I’ll miss ya until ya ring the ball
Then we can reminisce about the past
I love you and your stupid ass

Why’d you have to leave?
Won’t you come back to the family?
Hearing the news made me furious
But I guess you just think I’m frantically frivolous

Since I don't think anyone saw this, here is a bump. I'm impatient, yes.

Sounds like you miss your sister very much, I hope she gets to hear your song one day, so she knows that you have always been there waiting for her. I'm not sure why nobody has replied to this song yet, so I thought I'd help you out and give it a boost. I haven't a clue how to critique a song, so I'll leave that to the more experienced here. Thanks for sharing your talent here with us.

Thank you, Lost Dreamer. I appreciate your comment, and I showed my sister the song, and she didn't like it. She felt I was calling her a loser, basically. But I wasn't, I was merely putting what I felt into words and into a song. Just because in the song and at that time I was feeling this way doesn't mean that I don't care about her/miss her the same amount. More or less.

sounds more like you miss her, and are hurt by her leaving, not that you think she is a looser....ok, it does kinda sound like you are calling her a looser, but more that you miss her
I enjoyed the read, but tell me, is this fast, slow, hard????

Enjoyed the read. A lot expressed in the piece.

Cold hands means a warm heart

SEA - Bleh. I'm workin' on my guitar for right now. I'll figure out what kind of music it will be when I record it, but until then, it's "rockish rap." So, I'd say fast-hard kinda. Yea.

And thanks for reading the song, you two.
