Crossroads

Words - me, Music - Suno

https://suno.com/s/BlSgcJjWzAVjljT4


[Verse 1]

Standing at the crossroads

What do you expect to find?

Riding golden unicorns

Circumventing an unkind world


[Verse 2]

The truth you seek, your path

Is in your hands, absolute

Your answers are beyond crossroads

Always was, except in your mind


[Bridge]

True happiness, breaks sad shackles

Liberating from those chains


[Verse 3]

The crossroads, not your shelter

Seldom was, only in your mind

The path is green, below your feet

Sunny rays, in a world growing kind


[Outro]

Eternal peaceful soul, you'll find resolution

    mystical and also very soothing to listen to. An excellent choice of music to accompany the lyrics,

  • @sidshovel - thanks sid. was trying for a porcupine trees vibe without mimicking them

  • This is really nice. The music is a wonderful choice for the lyric. They seem to match beautifully.

    And a positive finish, that's nice. Certainly conveys that it's all in our head, and a matter of perspective and choice.

    Good write!

  • @RainyDayMan - Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it. I was trying for minimalist, yet relatable.

  • Then I reckon you got there!

    This is beautiful and it has me very emotional. This is a good thing because I love, love, it! I feel free when I listen to your song.

    Thanks for bringing me a moment of peace.

    Bravo! Well done.

  • Thanks tammy.. not fond of the phrase breaks sad shackles.. I think i can do better :)

    I think it's easy sometimes to get hung up on words/phrases we believe could be better. Bit like finishing a jigsaw and finding there's a piece missing, you get fixated on that rather than the rest of the picture. One thing I've learnt from you Bill, is to appreciate the whole rather than the detail. I don't get bothered with wrong spellings, syntax, grammar, etc any more, it's irrelevant to the whole.

    @sidshovel - 1/2 of it's intended and the other 1/2 not.. 😂I just realized in another song that I wrote taught when I meant taut. Found that out an hour ago when I was making the song more graphic :) what's funny is that like you guys, ChatGPT, didn't flag it as it thought that's what I meant. also 😂. ChatGPT, said I fixed the spelling mistake, changed taught to taut, or did you mean taught 😂. Nope.. it's now corrected

    Bill. you lost me after @sidshovel,

  • There's golden unicorns at the cross roads ?

    Well its abstract as always

    Good job

  • @ElvisNash - it's not the same crossroads as in the robert johnson song.

  • No kidding

  • @bhengen Very pretty song. And how true. I suspect few ever attain 'true happiness' but it is a goal worth shooting for.

  • @HummerWisdom - Thanks for the comment.. It all depends on what your definition of true happiness is. 🤔😁

  • @bhengen I'll know true happiness when I feel it whatever it is! Lol!
