Good day, everyone! Oh, thank you, the overpowering response of crickets sounds is marvelous to hear. In equally guilt-laden news, I am extraordinarily bored in my Operating Systems class, in which I am not likely to perform well. I certainly haven't been so far. So, I give to you here my progress as a writer, as practiced during lecture for these classes. Two songs, the first of a somber tune, as in Conjure One's The Center of the Sun, and the second of a bouncier one. Neither have particularly joyous lyrics, and the latter is as of this moment untitled.
EDIT: The second piece sounds similar to The World Ends With You's Hybrid by SAWA.
______________
Life in the Weightless
A bird plummets softly
--whispers rip the air
Grey clouds wrestle awfully
--As the wings begin to tear
Rising from the black sea
--Her mate is thrown asky
Volleyed upward, uncanny
--How they flash into a twine
(Chorus)
And dots swarm through my vision
--And screams rush about my ears
Twirling skins guard my final fission
--And my birth grows ever near
My oil slick gossamer
--Ripples pinned against a book
And the texts' readers murmur
--Never wondering what they took
As wingless I must serve you
--Must dance under the neon
I know that I am nothing new
--A fact my authors quite agree on
(Chorus)
____________________
Bright! Your eyes
They punch holes - in my sight -
And I am thrown for a whirl
Hot! The wave
That follows - in my skin -
And I sigh and the people twirl
(Chorus)
You are unbearable
--The way--You make--
The world tumble
You are unbearable
--And so--I want--
To let my mind's facade crumble
Dark! The shade
My teachings - from my youth -
Lead me to effortless smiles
Cool! My stride
It's perfect - by those rules -
But how I want to fall to your wiles!
(Chorus 2)
I am untouchable
--Despite--Your hands--
Around my shoulder
I am untouchable
--But I--wish I--
Could let my barriers smoulder

Both still have work to do - each needs at least another verse, and obviously they require some cleaning up, but what do you lot think? I love feedback far more than you would believe.

In the awesome alternate dimension in which I can play the kind of guitar that doesn't have the colorful buttons, can we please form a band? That would be wonderful.
You should totally arrange music for an electric guitar and a synthesizer, and perform with wr0x2 and I. That would be fantastic. And we can use a vocoder for your singing, because I know how much you love the female voices ;)
