GraphicsGuy Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I wrote a couple of worship songs during my religious days. I am not a great song-writer, nor musician and I have little love/knowledge of musical history and such. However, I love making the attempt...and as usual, my best attempts are often by accident. I want this song to be really punk-style, but I've only sung it with my acoustic as yet. I will try to make a YouTube video this weekend. "The Nihilist's Anthem" Bm F#m G# E V1 This is a silly song without a point, It's a little bit like life. In that regard, do you think it might, Be better if it had a point? C1 (F#m E) But what's the point in having a point? What's the point in having a plan? What's the point in taking it serious? When we'll all be dead in a hundred years? V2 Well then this silly song got a little more serious, I really didn't plan on that. I didn't think it would come around to DEATH, Seems it had a point after all. C2 But what's the point in having a point? What's the point in having a plan? What's the point in taking it serious? When we'll all be dead in a thousand years? [bREAK] C3 But what's the point in having a point? What's the point in having a plan? What's the point in taking it serious? [spoken very fast on a hanging F#m chord] When the Earth will be a fried lump of charcoal unable to support life because the sun will be a red giant and if we have descendants they'll have to live on another planet [deep breath]...in seven billion years! V2.5 [END - Tempo Decreases Through Second Line] You'd think that I'd be glad I wrote this song, But now I'm just really depressed...fuck...

TheOutsider Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I can't help but drift to a Danny Elfman as Jack the pumpkin king from The Nightmare Before Christmas style singing voice. Not sure why... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
