New Lyrics

Here are the working lyrics to a new song... my first in a while, and the first in a new writing project I'm working on called "Possibility."

It's All Invented
C. 2009 by Carl J Ferrara

(Girl's Name)'s the kind of girl/Angry at all the world
She's the type who thrives on tragedy
She sees dramatic roles/on all her TV shows,
says, "My life's not like that, something's wrong with me."
Her Mom and Dad had really taught her well:
"Can't you see that life's supposed to be a stress-filled hell?"

But It doesn't have to be that way,
You can unlearn what you have learned,
It's All Invented Anyway,
So why not invent a better world?

(Boy's Name)'s the suspicious kind/he's good at reading minds
He knows what made you say what you just said,
Says, "You're all versus me,/It's a conspiracy
And you're all trying to mess with my head,"
But all his accusations never help,
'Cause what he sees is coming from himself...

But It doesn't have to be that way,
You can unlearn what you have learned,
It's All Invented Anyway,
So why not invent a better world?

Some people think inside the box/ it's their downfall
But if you open your mind, you find, the box isn't there at all...

(Third verse & Chorus)
