Default acenoface's Songwriting Journal

Searched my person without cause
Tossed me like a salad
Brain was charging like a herd
No way to corral it
Made me take an orange pill
Easy on the palate
Could a word be more obscene
Here's my date with thorazine

Bright and shiny was the creed
For my new religion
Messianic fantasies
Maniac's ambitions
How'd a little orange pill
Beat me to submission?
Psychotropics flo.or the teen
Here's my date with thorazine

Magic powers
Granted me by cannabis
Reading thoughts and causing frozen time
Quit those outbursts
Said the psychoanalyst
Even though I'm feeling so sublime

What a lucky group of friends
Heard their sad confessions
Learned a lot about the world
Therapeutic sessions
Changing personalities
Immature regressions
Antivenom for a dream
Here's my date with thorazine

maybe you could try and fill it out a little more, cause at the minute it reads a bit like bullet points rather than a song.

it's not poetry, they're lyrics. they're meant to be sung, not read.

Dude, its just a suggestion, but singing in bullet points isn't really much different.

let's see if either of these critics can come up with their own trisyllabic mosaic rhyme for thorazine
