So, recently I have really gotten into good guitar songs and whatnot. One of the best artists that I have discovered/really explored would be Buckethead. This guy is incredible. He can shred (That means playing extremely fast and extremely accurate). He has a massive reach. He has great pinky dexterity. He can play extremely emotion songs.
One of those emotional songs would be Soothsayer. This song is incredible. Honestly, you really should listen to it.
So, what I'm going to do here, is I'm going to listen to the song (Which is nine and a half minutes long), and I'm going to write lyrics to how I feel simultaneously.
In simpler terms, I'm going to write lyrics to the song. These lyrics are not meant to be song to the song itself, but its merely a form of me expressing my emotions.
Here goes.
Soothsayer
You speak your words,
calmly, softly.
You tell me what I need to hear,
to help me become better.
You help me settle my emotions,
anger, hatred, fear.
You show me the way to go.
Soothsayer, you save me.
Soothsayer, you heal my soul.
I remember those days,
we were young then.
I remember those games,
we laughed all day long.
I remember the happiness.
Soothsayer, you help me
remember who I am.
Soothsayer, you tell me
what I can be.
Soothsayer, you tell me
how to go on.
When we got seperated,
I got lost.
I lost my way without you.
Now your here, here to show me,
the light at the end.
Oh, I missed you, I needed you,
those were the hardest times.
Soothsayer! Soothsayer!
I am seeing who I am now.
Soothsayer! Soothsayer!
I am seeing what I can be.
Soothsayer! I remember.
Soothsayer! You saved me.
Soothsayer! Soothsayer!
How I am glad, I have seen you again!
Don't leave, don't leave, don't make me sad again!
When we got seperated,
I got lost.
I lost my way without you.
Now your here, here to show me,
the light at the end.
Oh, I missed you, I needed you,
those were the hardest times.
I was wrong back then.
I was wrong, I shouldn't have yelled.
I was wrong, I shouldn't have screamed.
I was wrong, I shouldn't have.
I shouldn't have...done those things.
I was wrong, you ran away.
I was wrong, but now you're back.
Back to stay, I hope you stay.
Soothsayer! Tell me what I can do.
Soothsayer! Tell me how I can make you better.
Soothsayer! Tell me how I can make us better.
Soothsayer! Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how!
You speak your words,
calmly, softly.
You tell me what I need to hear,
to help me become better.
You help me settle my emotions,
anger, hatred, fear.
You show me the way to go.
Soothsayer, you save me.
Soothsayer, you heal my soul.
I remember those days,
we were young then.
I remember those games,
we laughed all day long.
I remember the happiness.
Bring it back.
