glass - johnnyOnline original

written in one hour, from a randomly chosen song title. see the video this is a response to for proof. or watch it if you have absolutely nothing better to do for the next 10 minutes. i would hope you do have something better do.


Glass
-=-=-=-=-

Breaking your heart, is the last thing i wanna do
but breaking routine might be perfect for me and you
i see though your words like they were not the words
that you wanted to say but you used them anyway.

Glass, we're all made of glass
We're all moving so fast
We are breaking in two

Release those ideals, at least don't hold them too tight
loosen your grip or you know that you just might
shatter that dream and then where would you be?
cold and alone with the shards at your feet.

Glass, we're all made of glass
We're all moving so fast
We are breaking in two

you and me both are cracked round the edge
we'd cut everyone if we fell from the ledge
see-through and brittle, we're both made of glass

[Glitches0and0stuff]

I watched the clock in your last one and it took you 1 hour 15 mins to learn this. thats amazing!

[johnnyonline]

well.. 1 hour to write it. 15 minutes to learn it. but who's counting? haha.

i'm sure a lot of the worlds best songs were written in 5 minutes.

You are a fucking genius, even though you look disinterested.

[hippielife95]

amazing music, lyrics, voice, everything!

[jamieiiles]

That was cool and your guitar and voice sound perfect...for the bigger part on glass maybe try a stained glass concept you know different shapes~ some are broken like me and you...different colors but what can we do....I look threw ur eyes and I see right inside of you.....& when I put back the pieces It gives me a different view....u know stained glass how there all pieces of this great big puzzle that will make sense some day...

[WrongEnough]

love the song ... you also gave me inspiration with your "making a song" video :)

[XcXtrippyXcX]

Awesome, it does sound a tad bit like Seal's kiss from a rose though... xD

[Cogentesque]

I was thinking about doing something exactly the same and searched if anyone else had done something like that - yours is the best.

I am here in my dusky lounge in Southampton, curtains closed to shield unwanted views, speakers turned up to here your strings twanging, with my Guild GAD30RE on my lap plucking the wires along with your video. If you are ever down, let's jam :)

@johnnyonline This is incredibly late and irrelevant but I'm pretty sure the chords are C major 7, D major 7 and E major 7 in barre chord form :) I love major 7 chords and my songs tend to be filled with them so their pretty easy to identify...

[picturesqueish]

This is awesome!! My songs take centuries and you created this in an hour...... Keep on rocking

[Frailpoignance]

wow sounds exactly like seal kiss from a rose ahaaaha.. melody and everything..

[azncoolz]

cool, i just started writing like this week haha,. This is an inspiration! What genre do you think this song would fit in?

[FROMAN1115]

Your amazing
