never really thought of myself as a very good lyricist, but i've got a verse and a chorus i might continue work on, if they're worth it
welcome back, spaceman,
we missed you down here.
i left my heartstrings up there,
spinning in the vacuum.
where no one can hear the tears
float back into the eyes from whence they came,
and every day is exactly the same
on tonight at eight
the late show
our guest tonight is spaceman spliff
tell us what the earth looks like
from so far away
i was a twenty-something
came back an old man with a wasted life
recycled air and vapor stoges
spaceman spliff
heh
some of its okay but stuff like 'from whence it came' is just not good at all
Welcome back, Mister Spaceman
We missed you from below
I left my heartstrings out to rot
With the tears my eyes sowed
And when they floated back to me
I decided I knew why
why every day in itself
was repeating time
(Chorus?)
Hello Mister Spaceman
Go on, take a bow
It matters not
what you lost
But what our nation has found
Ta-da!
Just my 2 cents anyway. I'm not sure what genre these are for, but I'm sort of singing it as a rock ballad thing.

Read "from whence they came" and all I could think of was Limmy's Show...

they're poor but you can make them work if you believe.
see ya spaceman.
They're decent, but I'd say with lyrics, simplicity is key. Unless of course you're telling a deep personal story or writing rap music.
how do you think you're gonna get any good advice here posting your lyrics and just asking if they're good
only you can know if your lyrics are good
and what it comes down to is whether or not the finished product (your voice and a rhythm) sounds good. even then, only you can know if it sounds "good"
Big Blue, you're a winner. I'd do the tag but I'm on my mobile. If you need to ask if the lyrics are good, they're bad.
