Well, this is my second try of writing lyrics in English ^_^" It is for my friend's band.


Here I am, just a man in a web of intrigues
Staring how others spin it with their tricks.
I'm the only one and don't wanna play this game,
I'm not a pawn, give me back my name.

I'm trying not to look into people's eyes,
Cause they reflect only greedy paradise.
Your sight is shrouded with a dollar mist.
Hey, people, I'm your alarmist.

Yes, I'm just a man in a web of intrigues
Trying to struggle with all these things.
I do care, I am to be not justified.
Sometimes I wish I were blind...

Hi Le Iris, and welcome back. I think this is pretty good. The only thing I might question is what you actually want to say in line two. Staring is a bit odd here. Watching might be a better word. Good lyrics though, I'll be looking out for more.

Best H

My only problem is with the penultimate line: "I do care, I am to be not justified" which is neither idiomatic nor clear. Apart from that, this is very good. Might we know the name of the band for which this was composed?

Hawkman, thank you very much for your comment. Well, as English is not my mother tongue, I don't feel all the details of it very good xD Maybe you're right)
