Sawyer Frey is sad. (read entry)

Untitled 3 months ago

i have had difficulty expressing my feelings lately.

i am very lonely but my mind realizes that relationships (especially at my age) are entirely superficial and it is hardly worth the trouble. many things i desire i simply wouldn’t seek because my belief that it will turn out wrong or that its just not who i am.

i find shelter in music, but my ipod is broken and i can rarely listen to anything which clogs my emotional flow. its really troubling and i have a lot of feelings, but again, no way to express them. i would LOVE to express myself through music, but it is incredibly hard for me. i would love to make instrumental tracks, but no one would listen to them, and it wouldn’t get quite as much emotion out of me. however, i suck at writing lyrics. i am far too blunt and just don’t get inspiration very often. i explain all the details, leaving the listener nothing left to think about or wonder. i hope to change this one day.

school starts tomorrow.

everyone is mad but i’m just glad something is changing. something has been wrong with me lately. i have no idea what. i hope i get distracted by change.

change.

that say “songwriter.” ;) (Among a lot of other things!) Or perhaps “half a songwriter” since I can only write the words and have to depend on my sidekick to write the music. Or should I say “partner?” Sorry, Sidekick. :D Hey, listen Sidekick, I wouldn’t give my words to just anybody. You. are. Awesome! I <3 our songs! I <3 your $5 guitar!

i love lyrics 15 months ago

so i enjoy writing lyrics so much
i think it helps to write when you’ve experienced the subject your writing about
like have your heart broken, falling in love, being angry at something/someone, feeling lost, running across the beach in bare feet, danceing in the middle of the night with your loved one, partying till morning

I am not sure what to write about right now… I can’t wait to find inspiration.

I have written lyrics, so I suppose my goal is to write more. I love writing.

will I ever find the words to say what I mean
dishonesty, I’m a dishonest girl
you’re trying to convince me to trust in you
but what if I don’t believe in you
you don’t even believe yourself
you don’t think I can see it in your eyes
I don’t recognize you, I try to search for meaning
I draw a blank
you’re so shallow but you don’t even see it
because you’re always right, RIGHT?

well what if I told you, you never really knew me?
I lie I lie I lied to you
I was always lying to you
I thought you could change me
I thought you could recreate me
but a year has passed and I remain dissapointed
not as much in you but in myself
I promised I’d never love again
and I let you in
I fucking let you in

and now I’m sitting here
alone in a room with you
feeling tired of fighting back the truth
these feelings that would devestate your precious ego

in love with problems 17 months ago

What might have happened if I had never got caught up in you?
You were my all, but now everyone has reduced you to nothing,
not worth anyone’s time; including my own.
Took me under your wing, and took me down with you
You guided me down the alley into a life,
you didn’t even want to be in.
Knew where you were going, and I didn’t have a clue.
I looked upto you, loved you, and idolized you for so long.
Everything comes out in the wash, except the things I
actually want to know, whether you ever really cared
Or only used us for your own advantage
We offered, and you never refused
“So confident, so sure of himself”
You don’t have a clue who you are if you need
to resort to things like cocaine to figure out how to get away
from the demons in your head, or numb your pain
What about your baby sister, or your mother
Hasn’t your family been through enough already
Second time getting put in that place,
You “know how the game works”
then why aren’t you winning.

The first day we met; you told me I didn’t look like
I had any problems in my life, at the time
I disagreed
But I never knew problems before I met you.

i love writing all the time,
it’s just i have bits and peices to a story
and never finish
i love songs with metaphors and
especially songs with really meaningful lyrics
that could apply to anyone
and you can vibe and relate.
i want to write more
and hopefully write something like that :]



True Friend 19 months ago

A piece of my heart is in your hands, part of me belongs to you Now my life will be offected by the things you do You can make me happy,make me proud,you can also make me sad I will cherish the good things i see in you and overlook the bad I will back your choice 100% no matter what that choice may be The times that you feel all alone know that you can call me I have a shoulder on wich you can lean on lean lighten a heavy load If you ask me for my help i will travel down any road When you’re happy I’ll feel your joy, when you’re hurtI’ll feel the pain I’ll be the shelter that you seek when you’re stuck out in the rain It dosen’t matter what you do or where ever you may rome I’ll be the candle in the window that will help you get back home The piece of my heart that you now own it’s yours until my life ends It’s just my way of showing you I value you as a friend.



Lyrics 21 months ago

I have many songs, but very few have lyrics to go with them. Some of them are intended to be instrumental, but most are not. It’s more difficult for me to write lyrics than music, though, so I’ve been putting it off.
