OpenMic Songwriters Challenge Week #1 : Pretty Gorgon
Open Mic Songwriter's Challenge Week One : Pretty Gorgon
Here is my entry for the first week of the songwriter's challenge.
It's a love-ish song to a gorgon.
The theme of the week was "broken mirror" and it is in the first/second verse.
"I put a mirror in my mind to keep me safe
But it broke when on the other side I thought of your face"
Full Lyrics:
Pretty Gorgon
Pretty gorgon I've known you way too long
Just thinking of you now has got me turning to stone
I put a mirror in my mind to keep me safe
But it broke when on the other side I thought of your face
Pretty gorgon
Your venom's not enough to keep me away
Cause I got my immunity yesterday
You can slide if you want to another town
But I'm na-ga-na take that sitting down
Pretty gorgon Pretty gorgon
Why don't you come next to me
To know you that way is like a crazy dare
But I'm missing your slither and the hiss in your hair
Maybe you're trouble that it's safer to quit
But I'm like a honey badger and I don't give a shit
Pretty gorgon
I wake up in the morning and I'm wearing a frown
'Cause you got me like a bat hanging upside down
I don't like when a part of me is turning blue
But it wants what it wants and it's looking for you
Pretty gorgon Pretty gorgon
Why don't you come next to me

Nice one, brother... totally dug it! Great frickin' entry, man!
Thanks @passion-ground! I started out writing a sea shanty, which turned into a Beatle's style pop song, which turned into this.
Love that progression... Ha! Whatever get's us there, right? Cool, man!

Medusa is a gorgon. Gorgons are snake-like women whose gaze was said to turn men to stone.
