I understand your not wanting to download it. I can assure you that it won't give you a virus, but still you probably won't want to take the risk. It's really no big deal, anyway, seeing as this version isn't really what I expect the final song to sound like.

I actually already have a Myspace account, but I assume you're suggesting I make an artist account, which isn't a bad idea. As far as the name of the account, I would name it Legion Of Goats because that's the name of the project that "Awake Yet?" is a part of. I think I'm going to do this as soon as the first song is done; probably in the next few days if my schedule gives me enough time to finish it.

Thanks. I wouldn't've ever thought of doing that otherwise.

I like the name "Legion of Goats" for your second MySpace if you create it (and I hope you will)!

This is what I think a legion of goats might look like:

I wasn't even sure I was going to do this, but I guess an update is in order.
The only computer in my house that is exclusively mine crapped out on me, and I'm not allowed to download anything onto this one (my mom's), so no Audacity. I cannot record at this time and will not be able to until my tax return comes and I can either buy a new computer or fix my broken one.
I will continue to write and will have a few songs ready to be recorded when the time comes.

A FAIR TRADE

You ever feel like you're living for nothing...
And ending it wouldn't change a damn thing?
'Cause you've been gone longer than you care to accept

You ever feel like you're fighting a war?
As you sit alone at home, all alone
It's like heaven vs. hell vs. you, right?
And you're running out of ground to stand, ground to fight

Something for nothing
Almost seems like a fair trade

You ever feel your skin peeling...
Slowly revealing a grey monster beneath?
You feel that soon there'll be nothing left for you but healing
And ending it would change everything
For better or for worse, doesn't matter which

Something for nothing
Almost seems like a fair trade

Just like someone born into a prison cell
You’ve no idea even of white and black
In front of your eyes, there’s only gray
There’s so much more going on than you can tell
But your way of life only serves to set you back
You’re too far beyond a sunny day
So far that you think that that is hell
The light seeping through the cracks

A very good friend helped me make my album artwork today. This whole thing is slowly coming together, it's awesome. The signature at the top won't be there in the end, that's just the version I like the most.

MUSHROOM

That deadly acid rain of nukes
Leaves you with nothing
But a mushroom-shaped headstone

(That first part isn't originally from this song. It's from another I wrote called "Bio-Illogical", and is spoken with no music backing it.)

Mushroom
Mushroom
Mushroom

Clouds dance over my head
Rain falls and melt my skin
I know this is backwards
But I like the way it feels

Mushroom
Mushroom
Mushroom

Hope did live, now it's dead
To all us decent men
I know this is backwards
But I like the way we end

I like the way it ends
I like the way the mushroom climbs
Into the sky
I like the way it hurts
I like the way the mushroom kills
Across our land

(The way the)
Mushroom
(The way the)
Mushroom
The way the mushroom kills

ONE FUCKING PILL

I’m losing myself to my decisions
Only one thing can give me another second to breathe
Unfortunately, I must drown at this point
But I might as well go into the water
With my head full of air

I’m lying here
But I ain’t dying yet
I still got somewhere to go
Someone else to see

And all I need is one
Just one ****ing pill
Just one will keep me sane

I’m losing myself to this addiction
Only one thing will keep my heart beating another day
If only one day, that's more than I've earned
And I might as well be lit aflame
As beautifully as possible

I’m lying here
But I ain’t dying yet
I still got somewhere to go
Someone else to see

And all I need is one
Just one ****ing pill
Just one to keep me sane
Just one more day

I like it, Slj! The black background and touches of gray, pink, and white work very well with your mushroom cloud rose picture. The white words and gray words show up well against the background, so you get points for readability.

Your myspace would be even *better*, though, if you'd get some mp3s uploaded onto it!

Oh. And I want to see a goat. Maybe eating a rose petal. I'm disappointed there are no goats.
