Song-writing Demo for FAWM 2022
Song number 12
Written Friday 18th February 2022
I had NOTHING. I decided to rest today with so much time left and only 3 to do.
I had this title, but no… must… rest
However, Madame La Muse had other ideas (it’s not even about what I wanted it to be about!)
As We Near The End - A A J Russe
We want to see the sun
Doesn’t everyone
We’d like to see the sun
Now we’ve done
We want to go and play
Maybe every day
We’d like to go and play
Now we’ve done
As we near the end
Try to catch our breath
We have to wear the smile
You expect
From us
And as we near the end
We’ll gladly step aside
Let some other child
Take the ride
We gave up having fun
Doesn’t everyone
We gave up having fun
And now we’re done
You promised us we’d win
And losing was a sin
You promised us we’d win
If we tried
As we near the end
Try to catch our breath
We have to wear the smile
You expect
From us
And as we near the end
Let us run and hide
We just need to leave
And
Die

Another inspired lyric! I am imagining this fabulous batch of songs is a heart spawned tribute to those you love here and in the great beyond. Fantastic song.
