about

I was using the tools under "The Muse" section of the February Album Writing Month site at fawm dot-org.

When I called up a "plot spline," it suggested: “Write a song in second person ("you") in which the main character is addressing the listener. the story takes place in the present, and the scene moves to different locations throughout the song."

When I asked for a "struxxure," it gave me “verse-verse-verse-solo-verse"

When I asked for a "lyricloud," I got these words: “baby building carried confessor energy folks gazin girl guess hard limbs list parents respected roads roll sharona shines sings sound stay stud taught tribes warning younger”

Out of the words generated by its "titular" title generator, I liked the words “ache or celebrate” and “how afraid" out of "the chickens of dead head,” "doe nut osama gimme,” "you wanna bend me,” "ache or celebrate,” "homecoming of innocent sands,” "with soldiers,” "bored to the list,” "mos alive,” "to drown amazing,” "pledge of your traps,” "my broke devils,” "gonna tha me,” "closure (rainy),” "how afraid,” "mmm gonna lake,” "dodging the legion alarm,” "the diggin' on the girlz,” "grey bethlehem p,” "you need think my presley” and "the screw looks a weedman"

lyrics

You are a baby parents ache
to keep safe and sound
Building a better world for you
for when they're not around

You are a list of rules and priorities
they want to see respected
Hard roads will take you far away
and leave you unprotected

You are energy limbs and sound
that shines and sings warning
You’ll never know a night so long
that there won’t be no morning

You are a child folks carried around
when you were younger
So long as you stay true to yourself
you can satisfy any hunger
