I finally managed to finish the lyrics for the song. I believe they tell the story I wanted to tell is apparent in the lyrics and it communicates a Folk pop genre like I wanted. My final lyrics are:
VERSE 1:
When I was younger I was taught
If I blew a bubble it would burst
If I climbed a tree it would fall down
If I meet a stranger I should frown
When I was 8 I broke my arm
On the monkey bars at the Killy Arms
Then I turned 10 and my best friend
Packed up and moved to Manchester
CHORUS 1:
And oh those days are gone
Those easy days
Laughing at the park with all my friends
Wishing that the day will never end
And oh those days are gone
Those easy days
And now they've changed
VERSE 2:
When I was older about 16
I met a boy who was tall and lean
He made me laugh and he made me smile
Now all thats left are these photographs
Then I left school age 18
Ventured off to university
Drank a lot and ate crap food
Writing songs puts me in a shitty mood
CHORUS 2:
And oh those days are gone
Those easy days
Drinking at the park with all my friends
Wishing that the night would never end
And oh those days are gone
Those easy days
And now they've changed
MIDDLE 8
La la la etc...
VERSE 1 (SLOW)
CHORUS 1 TO END
In this song I sing about the things I earlier mentioned in the timeline I made. I believe I tell a clear story throughout and show a clear journey through life. This is shown by having two different choruses where I sing about two different topics. In the first chorus I am young and I sing about playing in the park with my friends, this then transitions to the second chorus where I sing about drinking in the park with my friends. The different choruses help to clearly show a passage of time and assist in telling my chosen story.
