Song I Wrote

[FriedFrog]

Just Another Number

the stupid thing is, its society thats forced me into not caring.
the amount of times they say we're gonna fail and stuff, ive come to expect it really

academic sucess is material crap. it's just dumbing us down so we can become part of the system
part of the system
just another number!

crushing any shred of individuality.
anything that is seen as individual or rebelious is deemed to be 'irresponsible' or wrong, so therefore must be
STOPPED!

just another number!
JUST.....ANOTHER......NUMBER!

there are the few that break the mould.
but they're seen as 'bad examples' and forced to be outcasts
it makes sense when you take a step back. whole thing is fucked up
i dont claim to be very individual, but at least i can see where things are wrong


just another number!




The song is made up of things i noted down on an MSN conversation between pne of my friends and I. Has some basic power chords on guitar to go to the backing of it, as well as bass which follows the same riff and a bit of drumming. It's not really 'sung', just 'said' over the music.

I'd appreciate some feedback over the lyrics. Thanks.

errr...try adding some original or shocking line, something like "they speak of individualism but we become just a number in their eyes to whom they can sell their crap" or something that way, otherwise it looks a bit repetitive.

Just a thought

I love it. You should make a song about it. Tip: Scream in the parts "JUST ANOTHER NUMBER!" like a REAL metal-star ;)

SOME sarcasm aside, I really meant the second line, atleast - Love is a STRONG word, but, atleast I liked what I read - Constructive critical speakin', of course :che:

[Anti-establishment]

I think it sucks balls, but I'm no songwriter so i cant judge really, but i just did.
