A song about trying to write a song that is...something...anything! Trying to break out of a writer's block.

The music of Lee Shapiro, which consists of a variety of styles and genres. I would appreciate if you "liked" or commented on any of the songs you enjoy.
My favorite kinds of music is the kind that surprises you. While I enjoy conventional type songs (verse, chorus, verse chorus, bridge, chorus), I prefer songs that take you on an adventure. This includes jam songs (Grateful Dead), and songs with many detours and lots of dynamics (Rickie Lee Jones, Dave Matthews). Although most of my songs tend to fall into some kind of normal verse/chorus formula, I do tend to try and mix things up a bit. Which is why most of my songs last longer than 4 or 5 minutes.

Story behind the song
Written in the middle of summer and the middle of writer's block. I wasn't creating any songs that I was happy with. So I kept things simple and this was the result. A song about trying to write a song that was....something...anything....decent. I was listening to a lot of Counting Crows over the summer, and some of it came through in the lyrics and music of this song.
Lyrics
Summertime dares you to make it last longer Sometimes I care for you to help you feel stronger She finds her way in the dark nights alone Reminds me of ways that we all have grown. Its all there, but you keep searching for something more Its not fair, is your refrain in the rain from the storm Its something different, Its something more A time to be kind to the girl down the hall You cant be heard over that mindless roar Counting the crows all lined up in a row Ill keep on trying to make something good But I would be lying to say I understood The last thing I need is your negative vibes Yet you cant see why Im so quick to say goodbye Its all there, but you keep searching for something more Its not fair, is your refrain in the rain from the storm Its something different, Its something more A time to be kind to the girl down the hall You cant be heard over that mindless roar Counting the crows all lined up in a row Ohhh. Shes never on time Ohhh. Shes always on my mind Its all there, but you keep searching for something more Its not fair, is your refrain in the rain from the storm Its something different, Its something more A time to be kind to the girl down the hall You cant be heard over that mindless roar Counting the crows all lined up in a row
