magellan - songsmith lyrics

Loading...

a writer like a blacksmith-forging works of iron
the jagged edges tempered into solid scripts for hire
solitary craftsman at his console merging audio discrete
an ever changing soundscape sets the stage; the twains shall meet
in a union strong

just like a working stiff
he is a songsmith
in a strange synthesis
“restoration” announced
it’s the new riffs that count (no mainstream bore playing 13/4…)

break out of silence-complete the curve
the songsmith maintaining his avant-garde nerve
innovation his palette-the urge and the test
adrenalin flowing, he can’t even rest unless-
harmonic elements and special fx
conform to all his whims, an interpretive text
but he’d sing for the m-sses if he just had the time
with a vocal ideal and a long lyric line
he is a songsmith

break out of silence-complete the curve
the songsmith maintaining his avant-garde nerve
innovation his palette-the urge and the test
adrenalin flowing, he can’t even rest unless-
harmonic elements and special effects

conform to all his whims, an interpretive text
and he’d sing for the media if he had equal time
with a vocal ideal and a long lyric line
he is a songsmith
it’s not too late for the songsmith

the curtain opens for creativity
give a backseat role to conspiracy
hear the signature and the melody
of the author flow in polyphony
will the writer last?
will his trade survive?
in a world of commerce
can he hope to thrive?
if his final sequence is not contrived
keep him honest now
just to keep him alive

we need the songsmith…
