Song written while BEING record.. i.e. Kind of spur of the moment.. Some mistakes..

accoustic folk lyrical sa

Holly Osburn

lonely, a torn soul, folky, wistful, problematic, twisted, lyrical

And I'm emerging from my shell.. and I planned on singing my sorrows... and i was going to scream them and everyone would finally understand.. but in the end... no one cares for the pathetic poetry of a sinner like myself

Story behind the song

Inspirations behind song : ex boyfriend, chemistry class, and a turtle I watched crossing the road in front of my house

Lyrics

And tonight I have a problem
cuz I've picked up my guitar
and I don't know what may come out

I feel as if I was a turtle
caught in the headlights of a passing truck
on a city street and now my shell lay broken
and I lay prostrate and vulnerable to all who pass me by

And I've never been the type to believe in feminism so this can't be a song of awe inspiring 
for a future generation of women
and that's why I can fully admit I miss those saturday nights in your apartment 
me on keyboard and you playing your guitar

And I even miss the way you'd annoyingly hold your wine glass so damn confidentently 
and I miss the way that we could sit on the couch and I'd count the hair upon your chin, 
and once I made it to 146 
before you touched my face 
and we began to kiss

and tonight I don't have the vindication 
to be vengeful 
but I only want to know 
are you having a good time 
dancing along the galaxy's borders 
with sirens from saturn's rings
by-products of ice chips and solar littering

and you've always been like a star
shining so damn brightly in the sky
but all stars fade in time
and the saddest song I could sing tonight
would be of a star dying
you fading in my mind

the oxygen you breathed into me
the nitrogen that fertilized my happiness
the hydrogen that put it all together
and the iron that strengthened my soul 
elemental resources of
your nuclear fusion
depreciating as time goes on
