Gandhi

Friday morning purple dawn,

I step through the fog like I step to a song.

I keep forgetting how much time we don't really have.

You're the only one that stuck it out last night.

Slip through your fingers, feet hit the ground like a beat for the lonely.

Just wanted you to know how I felt, but is it too late?

Cause when this world collides you're the one I can't deny. I wanna be where you are.

It all seems forgotten.

The brightest stars are falling down.

But when will we own ourselves completely?

America's dying. There's a voice you cant ignore.

It's not the circumstances that determine who you're gonna be, but how you deal with these problems and pains that comes your way.

This is where we started. Never forget. Never forget this moment...

Cause tonight? Well tonight, is not the last time I will see the light.

A picture, for you...

SIXERS

Fourteen years old, story still untold.
I hope to live out my regrets.
My life's a bunch of almosts.
I used to rule the world.
You put me outta my element.
Today, I stopped believing in words.
Waiting for something that wont happen.
Born in California, then nothing happened.
I could not have it better.
Always working on the next chapter.
You are a murder of love!
Realized childhood dreams doesnt pay bills.
Longingly waiting for summer to come.
Why dont you text me back?
She tried, but then she failed.
New York City, I love you.
I cant think of six words.
I want you here with me.
Dear NYC, Please take me back.
I really like hearing your voice.
So, ill see you soon then?
This is the potential breakup song.
Los Angeles 2012, here I come.
Still waiting for my Hollywood ending.

{a song that tells a story}

Song #1: Mine by Taylor Swift

Plot: This song is about a guy and a girl who meet in a cafe where the boy is waiting tables, they talk, fall in love, and it talks about all the summer nights by the water. Then talks about flashing forward and they're taking on the world together, where they move all of their stuff together but the conflict comes where they're fighting late at night and she storms out but he runs in the street to stop her. He tells her "do you remember how we felt sittin by the water? You are the best thing that's ever been mine." And then it goes through them remembering why they fell in love in the first place. I think this song is a great example of a song that tells a story.

Characters: The boy, girl (Taylor Swift), and her parents.

Setting: A cafe, the lake, a new home

Song #2: Speak Now by Taylor Swift

Plot: This song is all one big conflict. It tells the story of how a girl is in love with a boy that is about to get married. She needs to find a way to stop him so she goes to the wedding and is describing the bridal party and how she is the wrong girl for him and she barges in when the preacher says speak now or forever hold your peace. And she interrupts and tells him to meet her at the church doors. So it goes through the whole experience and the story leading up to her speaking up during the wedding ceremony.

Characters: Snotty bride, the girl, the groom to be, bridal party, preacher.

Conflict: She needs to stop the guy she loves from marrying the wrong girl.

Setting: The church house.
