Skirmish: Point of View (@zinnithequeen)Liner Notes
#skirmish #rock Well, my point of view doesn't always read the fine print, and I missed the "inanimate objects" criterion in the prompt. Oh, well, going to post it anyway.
Lyrics
POINT OF VIEW V1: I’ve been looking out my window, like forever It looks great but now I’m getting bored It’s the same old scene, but whatever Can this music accept a different chord?
V2: Like the frog who’s gradually brought to boil Never noticed the pot getting warm If you want to jump in, well, it’s not a sin But today, I refuse to conform
Chorus: You look, I look, everyone looks But we don’t all see things the same One plus one doesn’t always make two It’s all about your point of view (x2)
V3: Today I felt the need to concentrate So I’m not picking up the phone If it’s that important, they can leave a message They can send a text or write it in stone
Chorus
Instrumental verse
Bridge: You can fritter your life in dribs and drabs And amount to nothing in the end You can dress in style or flags or rags What’s the message want to send?
(intro riff)
V4: So I’m sitting in my favorite chair Even though there are things I ought to do My appetite is just about right For changing my point of view
Don’t bother me with your static frames Whatever makes sense today will be gone A change of view is what you gotta do To make it easier to carry on
Chorus and out

Digging the rocking vibe and the philosophical angling. A smashing skirmish!
I LOVE verse 3: "Today I felt the need to concentrate So I’m not picking up the phone If it’s that important, they can leave a message They can send a text or write it in stone"
come on, digital detox! I'm due for one of those
I love the shuffle feel. I’ve got a playlist of shuffles and must admit this one. So many great elements. Great guitars and bass and the mix of the vocal shows your experience and talent. Organ and a bit of synth. Loved it.
