A song I wrote for Brütal Legend. I named it Drown With Me. I got it copy written back in November! I’m hoping to turn it into a real rock ballad someday. I wrote this all through Eddie’s perspective. Though since I’m singing it, it also can be interpreted as a sapphic love ballad 💖 Either way, I hope you like it!
In the beginning, it was just the two of us Me and my Isabella We were both young girls, full of naivety and trust, Childish and starting to develop. She was kind, and she said that I was smart She got good grades and people liked her She made her way into my heart As close as can be, we were Short brunette hair Cute round glasses Beautiful beyond compare Eyes greener than fresh grasses She loved to read We held hands in the school's hallways And together, we made an unbreakable creed; To be friends forever and always However, as the years slipped by Isabella grew more and more distant I did not know the reason why It felt almost like I was nonexistent Was it something I did? Did I say something wrong? Did I hurt her - oh, heaven forbid! And her company was withdrawn Was I too overbearing? Was I too immature? Or was I too caring? Maybe I was too impure? Elementary school turned into middle school I realized that I saw Isabella as more than a friend But to confess, I knew I would look like a fool And I did not want what was left of our friendship to end To confess and be shunned? Or not to confess and watch her be with someone else? But over time, I became numbed If I told anyone, they would have our pelts I tried to talk to her But, it was never the right time If I tried any harder, she might have looked at me like I was covered in fur I wanted to spend time with her, was that such a crime? I wanted to be with her, to rekindle the bond we used to have But, I'm sure she would never agree I felt like we were two halves Two halves of a whole, and together we would be free Until the first day of my freshman year of high school Isabella was just gone I thought she was just absent, but I was the fool More days, even weeks passed by,I asked around, but no one had a thought I was too late My friend, my companion, my crush left without a trace I knew I was wrong to wait For she was someone in my life no one could ever replace Not a day goes by for me without thinking of her Her hair, her glasses, her eyes Whether on highways, in town, or anywhere Because I will love her forever and always
I like this song for Zawe and Tom because no one knows their whole story, just as it is with any couple. What we think we see is often a little obscured.
Sample lyrics:
… Love, I never knew that a touch
Could mean so much, mm-mm
What a difference, and when we walk hand in hand
I feel so real
… Lovers come, and then lovers go
That's what folks say
Don't they know?
They're not there when you love me, hold me and say you care
I wrote an autorose love ballad for myself, and for anyone else that is autorose/autoplurelic like myself, titled Between The Me and The I:
With Me, I am free..With I, I lovingly Lie. I and Me turn into We, in order to love and to be. With Me, I love….With I; Treasures onto me! For I am me and me is indeed I. Love is sending to us both, a loving ecstacy. Beyond Me, Beyond I, Beyond We.
Between Me and I, a balance: Love is the darkest of desires, Love is the lightest of sanctuaries! A seesaw, love is forever going its ups and downs.
With Me, With I. To Love I, the me within dives. To Love me, the I within rises. The I within rises to me, and the me dives towards the I within.
Lovingly, I and Me intertwine, We become Love, for what better Love is between Me and I? With Me, I Love…With I treasuring Me!
A Loving Ecstacy. (Between I and Me). A Loving Beyond We (I love onto me…We Love onto Us…Me Loving onto I)
A Love just for I, A Love just for Me, A Love for Us, Within I, Within Me.
For awhile now, I've been wanting to improve my rendition of Ronnie Le Tekro's "Klassisk Romance". His love ballad was performed in two guitar parts and I transcribed them into a single melodic phrase.
Since I'm using a 3/4 mini classical guitar, I had to make some changes to make the ballad more playable.... Hope you like it.

listen there really was just something about how in the book, snow’s 3-page descent from hesitant lover boy to deluded psychopath happens entirely in his mind. lucy gray gives him no indication whatsoever that she suspects him, that she’s going to leave or betray him. he’s just sitting quietly in the cabin waiting for her to return when that seed of calculated suspicion, which he has needed to survive the capitol, takes a hold of him and chokes the life out of any goodness left inside him. it really drives home your terror as a reader that “oh my god did he kill her? did she escape? what happened to her? why would he even think that?” in a way that when the movie had to adjust for visualization it lost some of that holy shit this guy has lost it emphasis.
