Alone (lyrics)

Hey everyone here's another song we've done we haven't published it yet but here's the lyrics i hope you'll like it :)

Alone

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™ve ever been alone

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™d rather walk alone

Cause I donâ�™t wanna leave loneliness of my world

Where everyone hates everyone outside

Where Iâ�™ve never felt a love

And I adopt being alone

Even in the cluster I feel alone

The homesickness consumes me

But it doesnâ�™t hurt anymore

I adapt to the endemic arthritis

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™ve ever been alone

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™d rather walk alone

This life doesnâ�™t make any sense anymore

This life makes only insane anymore

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™ve ever been alone

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™d rather walk alone

Thereâ�™s no more love thereâ�™s no more feeling

Only devils looking down on living anymore

And I donâ�™t wanna leave the comfort of lonely emptiness

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™ve ever been alone

Iâ�™m alone Iâ�™d rather walk aloneâ�¦

I'm on my own, lonliness is in love with me

And insomnia haunts all of my Dreams

I'm alone, I cant' help but disagree

In a world where nothing's what it seems...

I may seem calm, but my silence's a hurricane

And i know that sometimes i'm so out of this brain

I'm alone , damn lonely t the bone

I'm alone, that's the way I've grow..

ABSOLUTION !!!! (my LYRICS ) ^^

Finnally and under lot of requests here i am posting one of my own songs so comment it and be honnest and if you wanna hear the song it's on www.myscpace.com/warstormofficial & here we go :

ABSOLUTION

No I can't handle it. I gotta reveal it.

Iâ�™m seeking absolution

I believed in you I thought you were the one

While all I believed was in vain

Such damage I've been through

Yet I'm a living proof you couldn't get anywhere...

Pain, fear, darkness that's my life

I couldn't feel anything with my frozen heart

Do you own me?

Did I owe you?

So tell me what life is this

Because I do know that life is harder than war!!

But will I ever Release my heart from its awful misery

& all this pain...

When I was looking at these eyes I felt envy

I felt agony â�¦. Like the sun through the night walker

When I was looking at these eyes I cried with no tears

Cause I was bleeding insiiide..

Pain, fear, darkness that's my life

I couldn't feel anything with my frozen heart

Do you own me?

Did I owe you?

So tell me what life is this

Because I do know that life is harder than war!!

But will I ever Release my heart from its awful misery

& all this pain

Thank u for saving me but could you forgive me

So please redeem my sins when I was sinful

When I was silly Iâ�™ve wrapped up in things I canâ�™t say

So donâ�™t you stay away seeing me burning?

Please redeem my sins

And kill that evil living inside of me

Cause my soul can no longer bear this sorrow

Please redeem my sins

And kill that evil living inside of me

Cause my soul can no longer bear this sorrow

Though you can see me smiling but I'm bleeding inside

Absolution is my aim and I'll reach it â�¦

Well I'm asking absolutionâ�¦ absolutionâ�¦ absolution...

musical and social impact

Musical impact

As the origin of the blues scale, the blues has exerted a profound influence on many styles of music. Many jazz, folk or rock performers, such as Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, Bob Dylan and The Red Hot Chili Peppers, have performed significant blues recordings. The blues scale frequently is found in non-blues musical forms, such as popular songs like Harold Arlen's "Blues in the Night", blues ballads like "Since I Fell for You", and even orchestral works like George Gershwin's. Indeed, the blues scale is ubiquitous in modern popular music and informs many modal frames, especially the ladder of thirds as in "A Hard Day's Night". The first great country music star Jimmie Rodgers was a blues performer. Guitarist/vocalist Tracy Chapman's hit "Give Me One Reason" was a 12-bar blues

The influence of both the twelve-bar structure and the blues scale on rock-and-roll music was so profound that rock and roll can properly be classified as an outgrowth of blues, or even "blues with a back beat". Elvis Presley's "Hound Dog", with its unmodified twelve-bar structure is a blues song transformed to a new genre by rhythm and sheer energy. One can hardly find a major song from rock-and-roll's revolutionary period that is not, at its roots, a blues composition transformed by rhythm: "Johnny B. Goode", "Blue Suede Shoes", "Whole Lotta' Shakin' Going On", "Tutti-Frutti", "Shake, Rattle, and Roll", "What'd I Say", and "Long Tall Sally". The early African American rock musicians retained the frank sexual themes of blues. "Got a gal named Sue, knows just what to do" or "See the girl with the red dress on, she knows how to do it all night long" are hard to mistake. Even the subject matter of "Hound Dog" contains well-hidden sexual double entendre. More sanitized early "white" rock borrowed both the structure and harmonics of blues, although minimizing harmonic creativity and sexual nuance, such as Bill Haley's "Rock Around the Clock". Many white musicians who covered black rock songs would go so far as to change the words; possibly the most famous example was Pat Boone's cover of "Tutti Frutti", which originally started "Tutti frutti, loose booty . . . a wop bop a lu bop, a good Goddamn." In addition the blues had an influence on jazz, the big bands ,the rythme and blues, rock and roll, hard rock, country music ,la musique pop, and also classic music

Social impact

Like jazz, rock and roll and hip hop music, blues has been accused of being the "devil's music" and of inciting violence and other poor behavior. In the early 20th century, the blues was considered disreputable, especially as white audiences began listening to the blues during the 1920s. In the early twentieth century, W.C. Handy was the first to make the blues more respectable to non-black Americans.

blues' lyrics and musical style

Lyrics

Early blues frequently took the form of a loose narrative, often with the singer voicing his or her "personal woes in a world of harsh reality: a lost love, the cruelty of police officers, oppression at the hands of white folk, hard times". Many of the oldest blues records contain gritty, realistic lyrics, in contrast to much of the music being recorded at the time. One of the more extreme examples, "Down in the Alley" by Memphis Minnie, is about a prostitute having sex with men in an alley. Music such as this was called "gut-bucket" blues. The term refers to a type of homemade bass instrument made from a metal bucket used to clean pig intestines for chitterlings, a soul food dish n rocky or steamy man-woman relationships, hard luck and hard times. Gut-bucket blues and the rowdy juke-joint venues where it often was played, earned blues music an unsavory reputation. Upstanding church-going people shunned it, and some preachers railed against it as sinful. And because it often treated the hardships and injustices of life, the blues gained an association in some quarters with misery and oppression. But the blues was about more than hard times

Musical style

Though during the first decades of the twentieth century blues music was not clearly defined in terms of chords progression, the twelve-bar blues became standard in the '30s. However, there are many blues in 8-bar form, such as "How Long Blues". There are also 16 bar blues, as in Ray Charles's instrumental "Sweet 16 Bars". More idiosyncratic numbers of bars are also encountered occasionally. The blues chords associated to a twelve-bar blues are typically a set of three different chords played over a twelve-bar scheme

the origins of blues

as i said befor we will talk about everythin bout the blues we will start with its origin

first of all the first appearance of the blues isn't well defined and is so often dated between 1870and 1900 some characteristics have been present since before the creation of the modern blues and are common to most styles of African American music. The pre-blues music was adapted from slave field shouts and hollers, expanded into "simple solo songs laden with emotional content". The blues, as it is now known, can be seen as a musical style based on both European harmonic structure and the West African call-and-response tradition, transformed into an interplay of voice and guitar

Many blues elements, such as the call-and-response format and the use of blue notes, can be traced back to the music of Africa.

What is now considered "blues" as well as modern "country music" arose at approximately the same time and place during the nineteenth century in the southern United States. At the time, there was no clear musical division between "blues" and "country

Stringed instruments (which were favored by slaves from Muslim regions of Africaâ�¦), were generally allowed because slave owners considered them akin to European instruments like the violin. So slaves who managed to cobble together a banjo or other instrumentâ�¦could play more widely in public. This solo-oriented slave music featured elements of an Arabic-Islamic song style that had been imprinted by centuries of Islam's presence in West Africa, says Gerhard Kubik, an ethnomusicology professor at the University of Mainz in Germany who has written the most comprehensive book on Africa's connection to blues music (Africa and the Blues).

Kubik also pointed out that the Mississippi technique of playing the guitar using a knife blade, recorded by W.C. Handy in his autobiography, is common to West and Central Africa cultures where the kora, a guitar-like instrument, is often the stringed instrument of choice. This technique consists of pressing a knife against the strings of the guitar, and is a possible antecedent of the slide guitar technique.

the history of blues

well here we start with the blues which is
a vocal and instrumental form of music based on a pentatonic scale and a characteristic twelve-bar chord progression. The form evolved in the United States in the communities of former African slaves. The blues has been a major influence on later American and Western popular music, finding expression in ragtime, jazz, bluegrass, rhythm and blues, rock and roll, hip-hop, and country music, as well as conventional pop songs.

the first step
